I use the avent glass bottles with pigeon nipples. I don’t use a silicone cover, but the glass feels pretty sturdy.

Thread: "Glass baby bottles? Worth it?"
Avent glass bottles were nice, but we had to drop them once the kiddo started wanting to feed herself. They were too heavy for her to hold, and she smacked herself in the face a few times. However, they were super nice, never broke, and since we opted to use cold formula, they kept the formula nice and chilled whenever we went somewhere.

I third them! We use the advent glass bottles with the evenflo nipple
Thread: "Used plastic bottles for first 6 months- didn't know about microplastics"
My mom used plastic bottles with me and I’m okay! As others have said, it’s almost impossible to avoid micro plastics as they have even found their way into our breast milk. Don’t feel guilty. I switched to the glass avent bottles and glass pumping bottles. That comes with its own risks too. I had a glass pitcher I’d thaw my milk in and had to throw away 12 ounces this morning because the lip of the glass chipped. We do the best we can, don’t beat yourself up. Motherhood is hard enough. The fact you care so much shows you’re an amazing mom!

We use avent glass bottles and the evenflo balance nipples with them. It works great for my baby who also sometimes nurses.

I didn’t know you could interchange bottles and lids/nipples like that!
