Anti-Colic Options+ Narrow Baby Bottle, 8 oz, 4-Pack

Dr Brown’s bottles, in general, are great!! Each one, however, is slightly different and overall I prefer the Options, even though my baby is not old enough to use valve-less. I have the original (terrible at spills, because the white cap in the shape of a top hat, sort of, doesn’t stop any liquid at all; they have clear bottles, blue tubies, and whitish valves). I have 4oz blue Options (great, easy parts, thumb print on the lid is awesome for popping that sucker off, and the lid also has these bumps that line up with the nipple, where it slows down the leaking of liquids, and keeps the leak in the cap, although given the ease of taking the cap off, it can still get really messy). (Sorry for the run on sentences, I’m a sleep deprived mama!!) I have the 4oz pink Options (similar to the blue, but actually the valve fits very snuggly along with the tubey part into the bottle, so that can be handy when trying to put the bottle together or add formula, while also holding a baby - more stable than any of the other bottles, where the tubey/valve pieces are just loose kind of sitting on top of the bottle; similar cap as the blue, but no thumb print, and harder to get the cap off, especially one handed). Lastly, I have the 8oz Options with plain bottles and with the Dream/Adventure and Animal characters, all with the green valves and tubies, and the similar cap to the blue, except they are clear, thumbprint included! These have been great, and the animal characters are super cute; the ‘dream big’ and ‘adventure awaits’ are cute-meh. The only thing I was disappointed in that set, is that half the bottles had characters, and half were plain. I may be off on the count, because I bought two sets, but I remember being bummed that I paid a premium for cuteness, and didn’t get a full set of cuteness! I do not own, but have used some purple wide bottles that I was loaned while traveling. That was great, so I wouldn’t have to carry a bunch of bottles, but I wouldn’t/didn’t buy them; they’re just too wide for my taste, harder to handle, especially one handed, and I didn’t feel the wide nipple was significantly better for my baby girl. I will address two of the main two complaints I’ve seen about Dr. Brown’s: leaking and too many parts to clean! Leaking, yes, totally a thing, but it does in fact say on the bottle to only fill to X line to avoid leaking! Having said that, it is very hard for my brain to perfectly calculate how much water I need for the formula, where I don’t end up exceeding the volume specified on ghe bottle! I personally don’t think it’s a huge issue. I know it’s going to or probably will, leak, given the liquid in the bottle, and what I do is to keep a cloth or bib under the bottle when she first starts drinking, and after the liquid is down a bit, I just open the bottle up and pull the valve/tubey piece up a bit, and several big drops come flying down the side of the bottle, which I just wipe off with the same bib/cloth. I can immediately get the bottle put back together before my daughter complains too terribly much. Remember, this is only an issue when you’re filling the entire bottle, either 4oz or 8, so at that point the baby is a bit older and can hopefully handle the briefest of pauses without too much of an issue. If my daughter were the type to go full on nuclear melt down, I think I would probably have to be more diligent about staying under the line, and offering more milk, once the bottle’s finished, and a fuller belly is less likely to melt down. Ok, regarding too many parts to clean... there’s what? Two extra parts that other bottles don’t have? Meh. But I will totally recommend getting the Dr Brown’s dishwasher baskets!!! Oh. Dude. Awesome sauce, life-saving, yes. I am very green, sustainable oreinted, so I cringe at how much water I’m consuming running the dishwasher sometimes every day. So not cool. And, I’m also a sole parent, so I gots a lot to take care of, dishwashy basket is a must!! I have 4. : 0 ) I’m not a super fan of washing the nipples in the dishwasher, so I still do those by hand, no biggy. There’s even special baskets for just nipples; someone gave them to me, but no, I no likey since it looks like there’s still a film on the inside. My experience with Dr Brown’s bottles in general, has been awesome! I don’t even remember when I sorta stopped burping my baby (she’s six months now), it just happened organically over time, but when I was burping her (maybe for three months?), she would only have one, maybe two burps. She burps on her own now, but then maybe that’s just her, the point is that there was very little gas! She had a wee bit of reflux as a newborn, but that’s normal I think, what with having an immature gut as a tadpole-baby. I gave her probiotics and kept her upright-ish, and I think the bottles helped. Ultimately, I totally recommend them!! They were recommended to me by my sister, 8 years ago, as my nephew’s salvation, hope they work for you!

As a new parent, Dr. Brown's Natural Flow Anti-Colic bottles have been a lifesaver for feeding our baby. After trying a few different bottle brands, these have proven to be the best choice for our newborn. Anti-Colic System Works: The internal vent system truly makes a difference. Our baby has noticeably less gas and fussiness after feedings compared to when we used regular bottles. The design helps reduce air intake, which means fewer uncomfortable tummy issues and less spit-up. This has been especially important during those late-night feedings when dealing with a gassy, uncomfortable baby is the last thing you want. Narrow Nipple Design: The Options+ narrow nipple is perfect for newborns. It mimics natural breastfeeding and our baby took to it immediately without confusion. The slow flow rate is ideal for a newborn's feeding pace, preventing them from getting overwhelmed or choking. Easy to Clean: Yes, there are more parts to wash compared to simpler bottles, but it's worth it for the anti-colic benefits. The pieces come apart easily and can go in the dishwasher. Once you get into a routine, cleaning them becomes second nature. I prep multiple bottles at once to make nighttime feedings smoother. Quality Construction: The bottles feel well-made and durable. The markings are clear and easy to read when preparing formula in dim lighting during night feedings. The narrow design also makes them easier to hold, especially during those middle-of-the-night feedings when you're exhausted. 8 oz Size: The 8 oz/250 ml capacity is great because it grows with your baby. Right now our newborn doesn't drink nearly this much, but it's nice knowing we won't need to buy bigger bottles as they grow. No Leaks: When assembled correctly, these bottles don't leak. The seal is tight and reliable, which is important when you're heating bottles or carrying them in a diaper bag. BPA-Free: Peace of mind knowing these are BPA-free and safe for our baby. Works Well with Formula: We primarily use formula, and these bottles work perfectly. The vent system helps with mixing and prevents excessive bubbles in the formula. Worth the Investment: Dr. Brown's bottles are more expensive than basic bottles, but they're absolutely worth it. Reducing colic symptoms and having a happier, more comfortable baby is priceless. We've actually saved money by not having to buy gas relief drops as frequently. Highly recommend these bottles to any parent, especially if your baby struggles with gas or colic. They've made feeding time much more pleasant for both our baby and us.

I tried using these bottles when he first came home from the hospital and it didn’t work out too well he didn’t really care for them so I literally went and spent hundred dollars on other bottles. My doctor recommended these bottles again but I guess there is a new Dr. Brown option plus so they only get anymore. They’re freaking amazing and when I tell you, they took away every single thing that was wrong with the baby with just one feeding from this bottle now I’ve bought like $100 worth of Dr Brown bottles lol but definitely have to be the options plus narrow with natural nipple behind anymore. He’s not cranky anymore. He never cried as it was so one day when he just would not stop crying I knew something was wrong so I was out buying everything I could to make him feel better and it all came down to one thing a bottle.

These bottles have been amazing for my baby! They really help reduce gas and fussiness, and the Level 1 slow flow nipple has worked perfectly from the start. The quality is excellent, and the blue color is an added bonus! so cute! I would definitely recommend these bottles to other parents.

We've used Dr. Brown's bottles from newborn to 7 months old so far and have been very happy with them. They're fairly easy to clean, there are a couple of pieces inside that help prevent colic (yay!) that have some tiny holes but if you find a scrub brush for straws, that works perfectly!), so the cleaning isn't too bad, just tedious as any bottles are. They transport well in a diaper bag with the provided lids. They maintain heat decently well and can easily reheat when set in a mug of hot water. For the most part, they don't leak, but sometimes they're tiny drip faucets and I'm not sure why. My theory is one of the anti-colic inserts is larger than the others and that may be the reason, but I'm not totally sure. Just make sure the lid is screwed on well and the majority of the time, it works great. They're durable, too. All bottles come with size 1 nipples so be sure to invest in other sizes.

Another great product from Dr. Brown. Liked the cute designs and the price was very reasonable. They work as described and are very durable.

I tried several bottle brands with my baby, and this was the one he accepted the best. At first, I thought it would be difficult to clean and assemble because it has many parts. It does take a little extra time to wash, but it is worth it. The anti-colic system seems to work well, and my baby feeds comfortably with it I also like that it is made of plastic because it is lightweight, durable, and easy to handle. It has held up well with daily use and gives me peace of mind when taking it on the go. If my baby likes it, then I like it too!

Good

Pretty bottles. Makes a change from the standard bottles.

What I dislike about this bottle is that it leaks sometimes other than that, it's an okay brand

المنتج ليس كما الوصف هاذي الرضاعه للاطفال الخدج المولودين قبل موعدهم واذا اخذته لا تستطيع تبديله اتمنى التوضيح للمشتري

Muy buenos biberones, lo he usado con mi bebé y siento que la válvula para cólicos si le ayuda en comparación con otros biberones lo único que no me gustó mucho es que no caben en mi esterilizador. Venían con mamila del número uno y ya sólo adapté por etapa las mamilas.

I’ve been using these Dr. Brown’s Options+ bottles, and they’ve worked really well for us. The 8-ounce size is convenient as feeding amounts increase, and the narrow design is comfortable to hold. The anti-colic vent system has also been helpful for reducing fussiness during feeds. They’re easy to use and clean once you get used to the extra parts. Overall, a reliable bottle set and good value for a 4-pack.
