Anti-Colic Bottles and Teats

Q: What makes a bottle or teat anti-colic?

Anti-colic bottles and teats are designed with specialised venting systems or air-flow features that minimise the amount of air a baby swallows during feeding. Pigeon's advanced Air Ventilation System (AVS) directs air away from the teat and milk, preventing your baby from ingesting bubbles. This reduces gas, reflux, and spit-ups, leading to more comfortable digestion and less fussiness during and after feeds.

Q: Which Pigeon anti-colic teats should I choose—SofTouch or Flexible?

SofTouch teats feature a wide-neck design with breast-shaped teats, making them ideal if you're combining breastfeeding with bottle feeding. Flexible teats have a slim-neck design and come in various cut styles (S, M, L, Y, LL, LLL), offering flexibility for babies who prefer a different teat shape. Both ranges include Pigeon's advanced anti-colic venting system, so you can choose based on your baby's preference and feeding situation.

Q: When should I switch to an anti-colic bottle?

You can introduce an anti-colic bottle from birth if colic is a concern in your family, or as soon as you notice symptoms like excessive gas, reflux, or fussiness during feeds. There's no harm in starting with an anti-colic bottle preventatively, as Pigeon's anti-colic teats are designed to support all babies' natural feeding patterns.

Q: Are Pigeon anti-colic bottles and teats safe for breastmilk and formula?

Yes. Pigeon's anti-colic bottles and teats are made with baby-safe, BPA-free materials and are suitable for both breastmilk and formula feeding. They're compatible with regular sterilisation methods including boiling, steam, and UV sterilisation. As long as bottles are properly cleaned and sterilised before each use, they're safe for everyday feeding with either breastmilk or formula.

Q: What materials are available for anti-colic bottles?

Pigeon anti-colic bottles come in four materials: <ul> <li>• PP (polypropylene) – lightweight and durable for everyday use and regular handling</li> <li>• PPSU (premium-grade polyphenylsulfone) – naturally honey-toned with superior heat resistance for frequent sterilisation</li> <li>• Glass – perfect clarity and exceptional durability for long-term use</li> <li>• T-Ester – combines glass-like clarity with enhanced UV resistance and strength</li> </ul> All materials are BPA-free and designed to work seamlessly with Pigeon's anti-colic teat range.

What makes a bottle or teat anti-colic?

Anti-colic bottles and teats are designed with specialised venting systems or air-flow features that minimise the amount of air a baby swallows during feeding. Pigeon's advanced Air Ventilation System (AVS) directs air away from the teat and milk, preventing your baby from ingesting bubbles. This reduces gas, reflux, and spit-ups, leading to more comfortable digestion and less fussiness during and after feeds.

How does Pigeon's Air Ventilation System (AVS) work?

Pigeon's AVS is an engineered venting design integrated into both the bottle and teat that creates a pressure-equalising airflow. As your baby feeds, the system allows air to enter the bottle independently of the milk, preventing a vacuum effect that would force your baby to swallow air. This unique design maintains consistent milk flow whilst keeping swallowed air to an absolute minimum, directly addressing the root cause of colic and gas discomfort.

What are the symptoms my baby might have if they have colic?

Babies with colic often show signs of feeding discomfort including frequent gassiness, burping, spitting up, and fussiness or crying during or immediately after feeds. Some babies may also pull away from the bottle, arch their back, or seem uncomfortable in their stomach. If your baby displays these symptoms regularly, switching to an anti-colic bottle with a proper venting system like Pigeon's AVS may significantly help.

Can anti-colic bottles prevent colic entirely?

While anti-colic bottles cannot guarantee complete prevention of colic, they significantly reduce the likelihood and severity of gas-related discomfort by minimising swallowed air during feeds. Many parents find that switching to anti-colic bottles results in noticeably calmer, more comfortable feeds and reduced fussiness. Combined with proper feeding technique and positioning, anti-colic bottles offer the best chance of supporting your baby's digestive comfort.

What materials are available for anti-colic bottles?

Pigeon anti-colic bottles come in four materials:

• PP (polypropylene) – lightweight and durable for everyday use and regular handling
• PPSU (premium-grade polyphenylsulfone) – naturally honey-toned with superior heat resistance for frequent sterilisation
• Glass – perfect clarity and exceptional durability for long-term use
• T-Ester – combines glass-like clarity with enhanced UV resistance and strength

All materials are BPA-free and designed to work seamlessly with Pigeon's anti-colic teat range.

"Definitely a great drinking cup for daily use. It is compact, lightweight and easy to grip. The bright colours make it more appealing to the little one. I personally found it is easy to take apart and clean. So far we love it!"

I bought it a month ago, seems to work fine. My babies skin is not red anymore. Feels good to use on my baby.

"This bottle is great for my 9 month old. It’s light weight and he is able to independently drink from the bottle. The weighted straw makes it easy for him to drink from all angles."

"I’m a big fan of the liquid cleanser, so I thought I’d give this baby bottle spray a try. It works really well for quick cleans and wipe-downs. Just like the cleanser, it doesn’t leave any chemical smell, and you don’t have to spend ages wiping to make sure everything’s clean."

"I bought this tonight for my 5 mo after trying 5 other brands of bottles and at my wits end. The teat was exactly what I was looking for and he didn’t resist it being given as much as he would the others. Cannot wait to try more and hopefully transition!!! Thank you!"
