Best Baby Bottles
Choosing the right baby bottle can be pretty overwhelming when you see so many options with so many varieties of materials, sizes, and bottle necks available on the market. But don’t worry! We are here to help you understand the differences between them so that you can get your baby the best baby bottle according to his needs and so you both can enjoy this moment.
What are the different types of baby bottles?
- Plastic: Plastic Bottles are the most affordable type of baby bottle and are safe to use as long as they are BPA and BPS free (non-toxic). They are light in weight, but it is not recommended to put them in the dishwasher.
- Glass: Glass Baby Bottles won’t absorb odours or colours and can go directly into the dishwasher. On the other hand, they tend to be more expensive, they are heavy, and although it is not easy to break them, it is not impossible either.
- Silicone: Silicone Baby Bottles are the newest type in the market.They are unbreakable and free of chemicals, but can discolour and absorb odours over time.
What are the different types of baby bottle teats?
- Slim Neck: Slim Neck Teats are the most common type of teat. It is recommended for very small babies that are not breast fed and fuss at the teat.

Helps to avoid nipple confusionI’m fully breastfeeding my baby but also wanted to sleep at night so my hubby bottle feeds him with expressed milk every night. During his first 2 months we are using another brand, but then my bubba rejected it afterwards. That’s when we decided to try Pigeon SofTouch and glady her accepted it happily. My husband also likes the Pigeon teats since it’s leak proof and doesnt choke baby so much.
- Wide Neck: Wide Neck Teats are ideal for when combining breast and bottle feeding or when weaning from breast to bottle.

This teat was a life saver for us! We started our baby on formula at two days because she wouldn't latch and had bad jaundice - long story short - these bottles allowed me to mix feed her and saved us from nipple confusion. Highly recommend!
