Breast feeding bottles

Breast milk is the best source of nutrients for your baby, but it is not always possible for a baby to receive the breast milk straight from a breast. Sometimes, a baby must suckle a breast feeding bottle filled with expressed milk, instead.

Breast feeding burns about 1,500 calories a day, but you can expect to burn around the same amount if you express milk into breast feeding bottles. Breast feeding a baby at the breast and via breast pump is a great way to help a mom drop those extra baby pounds.

Think of breast feeding bottles as a helpful middleman that allows you to get back to work and still keep your baby healthy. Many mothers feed their babies both at the breast and with a breast feeding bottle.

When you decide to make the switch to bottles it is best to let an infant develop the skills to breast feed first before transferring him or her over to the bottle. Four to six weeks is preferable. Some breast feeding bottles are designed to mimic the mother’s flow of milk and the shape of her nipple. Avent offers great breast feeding bottles that are designed to deliver milk to the baby in a similar fashion as breast feeding.

Breast feeding bottles are a great way to make the sometimes difficult transition from breast feeding to bottle feeding.
