Great bottle for babies who also breastfeed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this bottle set to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and I love it!
Initially, I was a little concerned my son wouldn’t take the bottle, as it was drastically different from the one he was previously using when he was not breastfeeding; we originally had some problems getting him to take the other bottle. My worries were gone the moment I gave him the Philips Avent Natural Baby Bottle With Natural Response Nipple for the first time, he just loved it!
I believe that the nipple’s wide shape and on-demand flow make all the difference as it resembles more to my breasts. He’s had no problem switching between bottle and breast. My son likes to hold the bottle sometimes and the no-drip tip has been a lifesaver as I don’t have to be cleaning spilled milk every time he decides to shake it or he drops it. We also have not had any issues with gas or spit-ups and the fact that it is BPA-free gives me peace of mind.
An issue my son was having with other bottles was that they were free-flow and he would sometimes get too much milk at once and would end up spilling it or choking. My son can get the correct pace of milk flow when feeding with this bottle as he does with the breast. My son is 6 months old but we are currently using the 3m+ nipple flow instead of a 6m+ and it is working fine for now as he is not getting fussy about the flow; I am looking forward to trying a faster flow as I sometimes think he takes a bit long to drink the bottle.
Cleaning this bottle is super easy; it only has 4 parts (counting the bottle cap). The bottle opening is wide enough that most cleaning brushes fit without issues. Assembly is also easy too, it takes virtually no time to put it together. The ergonomic shape of the bottle makes it comfortable to hold for both me and my baby.
I recommend this bottle for parents that look to switch between breast and bottle. It has worked wonders for us!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Phillips Avent Nipples have always been our go to. I was thrilled to receive this product to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. It’s very similar to the other Phillips nipples we have used and our babe transitioned between them easily. I found this nipple to drip less when not in babe’s mouth (less mess and soiled clothes!) but still was easy for him to drink from.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I mostly breastfed my two children. With my first I had a hard time finding a bottle she would take. I wish I had this bottle back then! Switching to this bottle from the other brand I've been using was seamless. I have a fast letdown but my baby wasn't bothered by the change in flow with this bottle. She took it easily even with cold milk! She did spill some of the milk out of her mouth but I think that's something she does with any bottle. The bottle is easy to clean and put back together. I would definitely purchase more of these bottles in the future and recommend them to others. I was given this bottle set to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was gifted this bottle from the Stellar Product Testing Panel and my breastfed baby loves it!! She’s usually not too keen on taking a bottle but after a few attempts she takes this bottle like a pro now! I love that the bottle doesn’t leak with the no drip tip and the plastic bottle is super easy to clean! I love that it is plastic instead of glass so I don’t have to worry about baby banging her head on it when she tries to feed herself.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received the Philips Avent Natural Baby Bottle With Natural Response Nipple, Clear, 9oz, from the Stellar Product Testing Panel; and it is with joy I announce how easy it was for our bottle refusing baby to finally make the switch! Though she still prefers breast, she will at least give this style of bottle a try. I also have to note, the decrease in terrible tummy aches and discomfort caused by gas with other bottles. Which I believe, is a direct result of having the ability for milk flow control with the different graded nipples. The bottle is easy to handle, even for her little hands, and an absolute dream to clean (thanks to simple pieces and no hard to reach places).
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample of this Phillips Avent bottle to try. This bottle is very lightweight so when filled with milk it doesn’t get too heavy to comfortably hold. It has a soft, wide silicone nipple that helps to replicate a human nipple for breastfed babies while still forcing them to use their own suction like they would while breastfeeding. The nipple also has an air vent to help prevent colic without the extra plastic pieces inside the bottle that require extra cleaning, so it cuts down on time taking apart, cleaning, and reassembling all the pieces for use while still reducing gas which is a big deal for me as my first was very colicky.
The bottle fit well into my bottle warmer, but I believe it would also fit into a large size mug for warming up the milk. The cap/lid is very easy to pop off with one hand which is a bonus because as a parent we don’t always have use of both hands at the same time.
With my sample bottle I received the nipple for 1+ months; my 3.5 month old didn’t seem to mind it but likely could have used the 3+ month nipple as she is very efficient at breastfeeding. Since she was exclusively (and still is primarily) breastfed, it did take a few tries before she would take the bottle but she eventually did take it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My baby is exclusively breastfed but this bottle works really well for times when someone else needs to feed him. He took to this bottle on the first try and seemed to be able to control the flow of milk quite well. I also didn’t notice any gas or more burping after taking this bottle.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As current users of Philips bottles, we were excited to try the Philips Avent Natural bottle with Natural Response Nipple that we received as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. At first look, the bottles were of adequate size and easy to assemble. The bottle is also lightweight and shaped in a way that makes it easy for my 5 month-old to hold and feed independently. Another feature that I was highly impressed with was the nipple- it really is leak-free!
As a breastfeeding mom, I was relieved to see my baby accept this bottle immediately upon offering. Being able to switch between breast and bottle allows me to share feeding duties with Dad and get some much needed rest. We tested the #3 flow nipple, which seemed appropriate for us. Baby has dealt with some severe colic since he was born and we have tried other bottles that allow him to drink the milk much too quickly, adding to his gas and reflux. The #3 nipple allowed him to drink his milk at a comfortable pace, and no milk left the bottle when he took breaks from sucking. The nipple also has an anti-colic valve that redirects air away from his belly, a feature we are very grateful for.
I highly recommend this bottle to any parent who is wanting to be able to alternate between breast- and bottle-feeding and anyone whose baby suffers from colic, gas, or reflux.
