Reflux Baby Bottles and Teats

Reflux is one of the most common challenges in the early months of feeding, and it can make every feed feel harder than it needs to be. The discomfort, the unsettledness, the second-guessing — many parents find that a small change to their bottle and teat setup makes a noticeable difference.

Here at Pigeon, every bottle and teat in our range includes a built-in venting system designed to reduce the amount of air your baby swallows during feeds. Excess air is one of the main contributors to wind, discomfort, and reflux symptoms, so reducing it at the source helps many babies feed more calmly and settle more easily afterwards. The SofTouch Glass 160ml and SofTouch Glass 240ml are popular choices for parents managing reflux, with a wide-neck design that supports a natural latch and a non-porous material that won't absorb odours or residue over time.

The Flexible Peristaltic Teat M and Flexible Peristaltic Teat S are also widely used by parents of reflux-prone babies, with a slim-neck design and double-thickness silicone that encourages a controlled, steady flow. Getting the teat flow right matters too — a flow that's too fast can cause gulping and increase air intake, worsening reflux symptoms.

Browse the full range below, or visit the Baby Bottles and Teats guide for help choosing the right combination for your baby.

What are the best bottles for reflux babies in Australia?

The best bottle for a reflux baby is one that reduces the amount of air swallowed during feeds and supports a steady, controlled milk flow. All bottles in this collection include Pigeon's built-in Air Ventilation System (AVS), which allows air to flow back into the bottle rather than into your baby's stomach. For parents who prefer to avoid plastic, our reflux baby bottles and teats are available in glass — non-porous, easy to clean, and free from any plastic residue concerns.

How does bottle venting help with reflux?

When a baby feeds, air can be drawn into the bottle and swallowed along with milk, contributing to wind, discomfort, and reflux flare-ups after feeds. Pigeon's AVS is built into every teat in this range and works by redirecting air back into the bottle through the base of the teat rather than mixing with the milk your baby drinks. Many parents find feeds become noticeably calmer once air intake is reduced. For a broader look at what drives early feeding difficulties, see Why Some Newborns Struggle With Bottles.

What teat flow is best for a reflux baby?

A slow or medium flow teat is generally better for reflux-prone babies. A flow that's too fast causes gulping, which increases air intake and worsens post-feed discomfort. For younger babies, starting with a slow flow is the safest approach — browse our reflux baby bottles and teats for newborns and work up to a medium flow from around three months as your baby's feeding pace develops. The Choosing the Right Teat Flow guide walks through the signs your baby is ready to size up.

Are Pigeon bottles suitable for both breastfed and bottle-fed babies with reflux?

Yes. The SofTouch wide-neck range features a Peristaltic Plus teat shaped to mimic the natural breast, making it well suited to breastfed babies who also need a bottle. The Flexible slim-neck range suits predominantly bottle-fed babies and smaller or premature infants. Both ranges include venting to support more comfortable feeds. You can read more about the differences in the Wide Neck vs Standard Neck Baby Bottles guide.

Can I use these bottles if my baby has colic as well as reflux?

Yes — the venting system that helps with reflux also addresses one of the main causes of colic, which is excess air swallowed during feeds. If colic is your primary concern, the anti-colic bottles and teats collection is also worth browsing alongside this range. Many of the same products appear across both collections.

What feeding practices help reduce reflux symptoms alongside the bottle?

The bottle and teat play an important role, but feeding technique matters too. Holding your baby in a more upright position during feeds, pausing regularly to burp them, and keeping them upright for 20 to 30 minutes after a feed all help reduce post-feed discomfort. Paced bottle feeding is also widely recommended alongside reflux baby bottles and teats — the Paced Bottle Feeding guide covers the technique in detail.

Are Pigeon reflux bottles BPA free?

Yes. All Pigeon bottles and teats are BPA and BPS free. Bottles in this range are available in plastic (PP), premium-grade PPSU, and glass. All teats are made from soft, food-grade silicone. If you're unsure which material suits your routine best, the Glass vs Plastic Baby Bottles guide covers the key differences.

"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!"

Why Zinc-Free Matters for Newborn Skincare

"Just use zinc cream" is the advice every new parent hears. But newborn skin is thinner, more absorbent and still developing its own barrier. Here's why a heavy paste at every nappy change isn't always the answer, and what to look for instead.
