Customer Review: Good in theory, bad in practice
Summary: 2 Stars
My baby is seven weeks old and my experience so far is with nursing, nursing with a supplemental nursing system, and feeding with Dr Brown's and Born Free bottles. Whereas the Dr Brown's bottles mimic nursing in the nipple latch, the baby's suck, and the nursing action, the Born Free replicates none of these qualities.
The Born Free nipple graduates too severely to the wide mouth so it's hard for baby to get a good, ie similar to nursing, latch with flared lips and suction all around. It also prevents jaw motion during sucking which I was taught is a strong suck and "good form" when nursing. To make matters worse, sucking creates a vacuum inside the bottle so baby releases her latch every five sucks and has to then get back on the nipple. It's a lot of work for her! She hates it and refuses the bottle when she has only eaten half her dinner. They claim specifically that the widget under the nipple prevents a vacuum in the bottle but that is not my experience.
An additional worry is that, when tipping the bottle from upright into feeding position, the ball shape on the tip of the nipple captures air bubbles that can't be shaken or tapped loose so baby ingests them.
There is a difference between spitting up and throwing up. With the Dr Brown's bottles there is none of this nonsense with the latch and suck, she goes right through two ounces before stopping for a burp and then plows through 2 more, and there is very little spitting up. With the Born Free she stops eating every five sucks to release the vacuum, refuses the bottle after 2oz, and then throws up (not spits up--*throws* up) most of what I did get in her.
I gave two stars because, in theory, I believe in availability of bisphenol-A-free plastic bottles over bottles containing BPA and I like the shape of the bottle (easy to hold). All babies are different and maybe yours won't encounter these problems. After all, these bottles had to make it through R&D so somebody must like them! But there is just not one thing about them that works for me/us.
