Description of The First Years Breastflow Starter Kit
The Breastflow Starter Set is a great gift for expecting and new moms. The kit includes everything needed to get started: two 5 oz bottles with Stage 1 nipples and bottle covers, two 9 oz bottles with Stage 2 flow nipples and bottle covers, a unique snap-to-bottle container, and bottle brush.Breastflow is the only feeding system that requires both suction and compression, just like breast feeding. The nipple is designed to mimic the breast so baby can latch on and to encourage the same mouth and tongue position as breast feeding. The double nipple system requires both suction and compression, just like breast feeding and baby controls the flow of milk. It's the bottle most like breastfeeding.The First Years designed the Breastflow bottles for transitions between bottle feeding and breastfeeding. The outer layer of the "nipple-within-nipple" design compresses and mimics the feel of a breast, while the inner is more firm to acclimate to bottle feeding. The stage one nipples require compression and suction, and the stage two nipples are designed for medium flow. The starter kit comes with two 5 ounce bottles (and two stage one nipples), two 9 ounce bottles (with stage two nipples), four bottle covers that fit the bottom of the bottles, a snap-to container that can hold snacks and formula, and a bottle brush. The First Years Breastflow is a fantastic design for parents introducing the bottle, and for nursing mothers switching to and from bottle and breast. --Scott Teal
Baby Products Reviews of The First Years Breastflow Starter Kit
Customer Review: WOWEEEEEE! LACTATION CONSULTANT LOVES THIS BOTTLE!
Summary: 5 Stars
*If it is leaking, make sure you are assembling the nipples according to instructions! IT IS EASY!!*
I am a Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and work extensively with new babies and mommies about breastfeeding issues. Every once in a while a product comes along and I think to myself..'YES! YES! YES! this product is PRO BREASTFEEDING, PRO BABAY, PRO MOMMY, PRO DADDY'.
Well, that is exactaly how I felt when I saw this bottle and was even more excited to see it at work. The nipple within a nipple concept is perfect because it gives the baby something 'firm' to learn with but the outer nipple is soft like mommy's breast.
This bottle delivers expressed breastmilk at a proper rate, requires a proper suck from the baby and also helps a baby to learn a proper latch at the same time. This nipple encourages proper tongue placement and helps the tongue learn to curve around the nipple, pull the nipple to the rear portion of the infant's mouth, while encouraging the tongue down and forward over the gum line. This nipple demands a nice WIDE open mouth, even in small babies and is a great 'transition' tool from bottle to breast or from breast to bottle. All the 'right' muscles are used!
I would recommend this bottle for a baby with latch/suck/swallow issues who is having trouble 'learning' breastfeeding in the first few days and weeks of life. This product in combination with help from an experienced Lactation Consultant, and practice at the breast will ensure a great breastfeeding experience for many who are ready to give up.
I would also recommend this bottle for those having to introduce a bottle for whatever reasons but would like to maintain breastfeeding. I think babies will easily go back and forth with this.
Please, get assistance for your breastfeeding difficulties and use this botlle exactaly as it is recommended.
Thanks FIRST YEARS, you did it again!
