Dr. Brown's Natural Flow Anti-Colic Options+ Narrow Baby Bottle, 4 oz/120 mL, with Level 1 Slow Flow Nipple, 0m+, 4 Pack

Dr Brown’s bottles, in general, are great!! Each one, however, is slightly different and overall I prefer the Options, even though my baby is not old enough to use valve-less. I have the original (terrible at spills, because the white cap in the shape of a top hat, sort of, doesn’t stop any liquid at all; they have clear bottles, blue tubies, and whitish valves). I have 4oz blue Options (great, easy parts, thumb print on the lid is awesome for popping that sucker off, and the lid also has these bumps that line up with the nipple, where it slows down the leaking of liquids, and keeps the leak in the cap, although given the ease of taking the cap off, it can still get really messy). (Sorry for the run on sentences, I’m a sleep deprived mama!!) I have the 4oz pink Options (similar to the blue, but actually the valve fits very snuggly along with the tubey part into the bottle, so that can be handy when trying to put the bottle together or add formula, while also holding a baby - more stable than any of the other bottles, where the tubey/valve pieces are just loose kind of sitting on top of the bottle; similar cap as the blue, but no thumb print, and harder to get the cap off, especially one handed). Lastly, I have the 8oz Options with plain bottles and with the Dream/Adventure and Animal characters, all with the green valves and tubies, and the similar cap to the blue, except they are clear, thumbprint included! These have been great, and the animal characters are super cute; the ‘dream big’ and ‘adventure awaits’ are cute-meh. The only thing I was disappointed in that set, is that half the bottles had characters, and half were plain. I may be off on the count, because I bought two sets, but I remember being bummed that I paid a premium for cuteness, and didn’t get a full set of cuteness! I do not own, but have used some purple wide bottles that I was loaned while traveling. That was great, so I wouldn’t have to carry a bunch of bottles, but I wouldn’t/didn’t buy them; they’re just too wide for my taste, harder to handle, especially one handed, and I didn’t feel the wide nipple was significantly better for my baby girl. I will address two of the main two complaints I’ve seen about Dr. Brown’s: leaking and too many parts to clean! Leaking, yes, totally a thing, but it does in fact say on the bottle to only fill to X line to avoid leaking! Having said that, it is very hard for my brain to perfectly calculate how much water I need for the formula, where I don’t end up exceeding the volume specified on ghe bottle! I personally don’t think it’s a huge issue. I know it’s going to or probably will, leak, given the liquid in the bottle, and what I do is to keep a cloth or bib under the bottle when she first starts drinking, and after the liquid is down a bit, I just open the bottle up and pull the valve/tubey piece up a bit, and several big drops come flying down the side of the bottle, which I just wipe off with the same bib/cloth. I can immediately get the bottle put back together before my daughter complains too terribly much. Remember, this is only an issue when you’re filling the entire bottle, either 4oz or 8, so at that point the baby is a bit older and can hopefully handle the briefest of pauses without too much of an issue. If my daughter were the type to go full on nuclear melt down, I think I would probably have to be more diligent about staying under the line, and offering more milk, once the bottle’s finished, and a fuller belly is less likely to melt down. Ok, regarding too many parts to clean... there’s what? Two extra parts that other bottles don’t have? Meh. But I will totally recommend getting the Dr Brown’s dishwasher baskets!!! Oh. Dude. Awesome sauce, life-saving, yes. I am very green, sustainable oreinted, so I cringe at how much water I’m consuming running the dishwasher sometimes every day. So not cool. And, I’m also a sole parent, so I gots a lot to take care of, dishwashy basket is a must!! I have 4. : 0 ) I’m not a super fan of washing the nipples in the dishwasher, so I still do those by hand, no biggy. There’s even special baskets for just nipples; someone gave them to me, but no, I no likey since it looks like there’s still a film on the inside. My experience with Dr Brown’s bottles in general, has been awesome! I don’t even remember when I sorta stopped burping my baby (she’s six months now), it just happened organically over time, but when I was burping her (maybe for three months?), she would only have one, maybe two burps. She burps on her own now, but then maybe that’s just her, the point is that there was very little gas! She had a wee bit of reflux as a newborn, but that’s normal I think, what with having an immature gut as a tadpole-baby. I gave her probiotics and kept her upright-ish, and I think the bottles helped. Ultimately, I totally recommend them!! They were recommended to me by my sister, 8 years ago, as my nephew’s salvation, hope they work for you!

Good quality my only issue with Dr Brown bottles is they start to leak after about 6 weeks of use my grandson is 7 weeks we have 11 small bottles that we use and over half of them leak

As a new parent, Dr. Brown's Natural Flow Anti-Colic bottles have been a lifesaver for feeding our baby. After trying a few different bottle brands, these have proven to be the best choice for our newborn. Anti-Colic System Works: The internal vent system truly makes a difference. Our baby has noticeably less gas and fussiness after feedings compared to when we used regular bottles. The design helps reduce air intake, which means fewer uncomfortable tummy issues and less spit-up. This has been especially important during those late-night feedings when dealing with a gassy, uncomfortable baby is the last thing you want. Narrow Nipple Design: The Options+ narrow nipple is perfect for newborns. It mimics natural breastfeeding and our baby took to it immediately without confusion. The slow flow rate is ideal for a newborn's feeding pace, preventing them from getting overwhelmed or choking. Easy to Clean: Yes, there are more parts to wash compared to simpler bottles, but it's worth it for the anti-colic benefits. The pieces come apart easily and can go in the dishwasher. Once you get into a routine, cleaning them becomes second nature. I prep multiple bottles at once to make nighttime feedings smoother. Quality Construction: The bottles feel well-made and durable. The markings are clear and easy to read when preparing formula in dim lighting during night feedings. The narrow design also makes them easier to hold, especially during those middle-of-the-night feedings when you're exhausted. 8 oz Size: The 8 oz/250 ml capacity is great because it grows with your baby. Right now our newborn doesn't drink nearly this much, but it's nice knowing we won't need to buy bigger bottles as they grow. No Leaks: When assembled correctly, these bottles don't leak. The seal is tight and reliable, which is important when you're heating bottles or carrying them in a diaper bag. BPA-Free: Peace of mind knowing these are BPA-free and safe for our baby. Works Well with Formula: We primarily use formula, and these bottles work perfectly. The vent system helps with mixing and prevents excessive bubbles in the formula. Worth the Investment: Dr. Brown's bottles are more expensive than basic bottles, but they're absolutely worth it. Reducing colic symptoms and having a happier, more comfortable baby is priceless. We've actually saved money by not having to buy gas relief drops as frequently. Highly recommend these bottles to any parent, especially if your baby struggles with gas or colic. They've made feeding time much more pleasant for both our baby and us.

Dr. Brown’s Natural Flow Anti-Colic Options+ bottles are high-quality and very easy to use. They’ve performed flawlessly for us with no issues in terms of longevity or functionality. The anti-colic design really makes a difference, and the narrow shape is comfortable to handle. Cleaning is easy but time-consuming due to the extra parts, but that’s a small trade-off for the performance. Compared to Tommee Tippee bottles, I prefer these even though they require more work to clean—the feeding experience and anti-colic benefits are worth it. For the performance-to-cost ratio, these bottles are excellent. I also appreciate that each bottle comes with brushes for cleaning the tubes and travel caps to prevent leaks while traveling—a thoughtful addition that makes life easier. Pros: High-quality build and reliable performance Easy to use and assemble Great anti-colic design Includes cleaning brushes and travel caps Excellent value for the quality Cons: Cleaning takes time due to multiple parts

Súper prácticos aunque no los use mucho ya que me volví LME pero 10/10

What I dislike about this bottle is that it leaks sometimes other than that, it's an okay brand

Están muy bonitos , pero cuando el bibi se queda de lado se tira en la tapa es lo único que no me gusta , tienes que mantener el biberón parado por qué si sigue con leche y se cae de lado se tira la leche 😩 pero me encantan

I do hate that there are so many parts but they really help with gas

Because the whole is too small, it keeps getting blocked, I only tried it with brest milk, I never used other preemie niples before so not sure if this is a common problem with other brands too
