Thread: "Bottle dilemma"
I’d get the plastic pigeon bottles personally. The minimal exposure at daycare is a safe enough “risk” for me to take for the benefits of not developing a shallow latch. Use your normal glass bottles or breastfeed normally when at home/on the weekends. Babies for years have used plastic bottles and I know it’s not the greatest but the bottles alone are not causing any diseases or issues, it’s a systemic issue of allllll the plastics in the world. Not just baby bottles. A drop in the ocean of the problem so to speak. Your baby will be just fine, don’t beat yourself up over it, use the plastic bottles, you’ll have less worries about latch etc.

Thread: "What are you thoughts on glass baby bottles?"
Maybe OK for newborns but not keen on them as baby gets older and starts to feed themselves. Having visions of them bonking themselves in the face or dropping them on the floor! I highly rate Pigeon bottles for what it’s worth.
We were recommended the pigeon bottles for our daughter who is now mostly taking bottles but hoping we can transition to exclusively nursing

Thread: "glass bottle recommendations"
I've used a lot of glass bottles, and still do. I have a 1 year old and we've done through a lot. Gulicola on Amazon is awesome, but if you can find Evenflo Balance Wide in glass... even better. Evenflo ones were my favorite! Eta; Gulicola, Evenflo and Pigeon bottles are all wide mouth so any wide mouth nips will fit. If you stick with "wide mouth" which is typically what is recommended by SLP and Peds for oral development, you can buy the same nips. I prefer Pigeon nips because they are sooooo much softer than Lansinoh... and my 1 year old with 8 teeth has not broken any of the Pigeon nips with his fangs!!!

Thread: "Are Philips Avent bottles/ nipples absolute trash or am I an idiot."
I was very close to grabbing my brake bleeder from the garage and trying to measure the PSI it took to pull formula through with the notch aligned and not aligned. I swear I saw some official Phillips material saying they should be aligned, but it could have been an exhaustion induced hallucination. Everyone is gonna tell you something different that worked for them, but we ended up settling on Pigeon bottles. The nipple shape is great, and my little guy can latch onto them really easily. Everything else leaked out of his mouth like crazy.

Thread: "Which bottle did your picky baby take to?"
My baby had to do feeding therapy for a bit when he was little and his feeding therapist specifically recommended either Lasinoh, Evenflo Balance Plus, or Pigeon for babies who are both bottle and breast fed. Those bottle have the most “real” nipple shapes!

Pigeon bottles have a similar shape but a slower flow and also have a glass option. We were using Lansinoh but baby was getting frustrated with slower flow at the breast and we switched to pigeon on advice of our LC
