Dr Browns bottle-AMAZING STUFF!!
« on: May 17, 2009, 19:14:30 pm »
Hey,

Just wanted to let other mums out there know that I have a 15 week Spirited baby girl called Quinn, and she is breastfed for day feeds and bottle fed expressed milk for 7pm/DF... She has mild reflux and suffers badly from trapped wind bless her... Until a few days ago she would get quite distressed in the evenings due to having a sore tummy/trapped air... She was hard to settle, and it made me sad as she is so happy and outgoing for the rest of the time! Anyhow, I then went out and got Dr Browns bottle, and some gripe water, and fed her and then put her down in her cot (slightly elevated)and WHAT A DIFFERENCE! She settled herself to sleep like a dream, no gas, no legs up to the stomach. She actually smiled at me from her cot!!! I feel on top of the world, and she is now sleeping through the night!! MIRACLE! Anyhow, just wanted to post this in case it helps anyone out there with a refluxy spirited babe!!

I TOTALLY agree, we used these with our colicky and reflux baby and they were the only bottles that made any difference, ok so she still didnt eat right but better than with any others :D

Glad they have worked for you too, makes things feel that little bit easier doesnt it :D

worrying is as about effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum

I have a reflux son and Dr. Brown's are the best!!  I can actually lay him on his back to play after a full feed from these bottles :-)
