Dr. Brown’s Baby Bottles

Dr. Brown's Baby Bottles

Dr. Brown's baby bottles create a natural, vacuum-free feeding experience for your baby. The internal vents cause positive-pressure in the bottle, preventing the formula from mixing with any returning air. The baby bottle, nipple, and additional parts work together to mimic the sensation of breastfeeding.

Dr. Brown's baby bottles have a patented system that creates a positive-pressure flow. This means that as the baby consumes the milk or formula, it is not trying to suck against a vacuum. This unique system allows the baby to feed at its own pace, much like natural breastfeeding.

Additional benefits include:

• Less air is ingested, which lowers infantile colic symptoms, such as gas, burping, spit-up, and painful cramps.
• Occurrences of ear infections are reduced and often eliminated.
• All parts are made from safe, BPA-free borosilicate glass or BPA-free polypropylene plastic.
• Aeration of the formula is prevented, which helps to preserve levels of key nutrients like vitamins A, C, and E.
• Babies can feed easier, causing less frustration for the infant.

While hand washing is recommended, you may also use the top shelf of your dishwasher to clean the baby bottles and various accessories. Additionally, you may choose to clean the bottle, nipple, and vent parts in boiling water for approximately five minutes.

As a best practice, you should always sterilize all baby bottles prior to their first use. A convenient method for sterilization is to place the bottle, nipple, and accessories in boiling water for about five minutes. This should also be done after every use. Wash the bottle and all parts thoroughly with hot, biodegradable, soapy water. Rinse them thoroughly and then place them in boiling water for five minutes.

To correctly use a Dr. Brown's baby bottle, you need to keep at least the blue vent in place. This is the part of the internal system that creates the desired vacuum-free feeding experience for the infant. Once a baby becomes more developed in its feeding style, the green vent in the bottle may be removed for your convenience.

Yes, these bottles are safe for newborns as well as for older toddlers. There is a Dr. Brown's bottle and nipple designed for every stage of a baby's life.
