When I was pregnant with BB it was always my intention to combination feed him. After my breastfeeding struggles with Lamb I wasn’t confident that I would be able to breastfeed my second baby.
I was contacted by Chicco asking if I would like to review their new baby bottles, the NaturalFeeling range. Of course I was more than happy to give them a go when the baby was born. I wanted to be fully prepared for days and nights of round-the-clock expressing and bottlefeeding.
The thing is BB latched straight away and breastfeeding is going really well. In fact too well, and my little baby bear refuses a bottle. Refuses every bottle.
I have tried to Chicco bottle with him a few of times but we just haven’t got anywhere with it. This isn’t a reflection on the bottles themselves, I’ve tried numerous brands, but he’s all about the boob.
The bottles themselves are a great design. They are easy to hold, easy to clean and the angle of the teat means it’s easier for you to feed baby. Just unfortunately not my baby!
A little bit about the range.
The NaturalFeeling bottle range are designed to replicate the instinctive way baby feeds. The angled teat ensures correct and intuitive suction, just like at your breast, giving you peace of mind.
We were sent the Blue Gift Set which includes:
• 5oz/150ml bottle with slow flow teat.
• 9oz/250ml bottle with slow flow teat.
• 1x Physio Soft soother, made of 100% ultra soft silicone, perfect for night & day use.
As well as an additional 250ml bottle and extra teats, so I can offer him a faster flow if he needs it.
I will keep trying BB with a bottle, I’m not convinced he will ever take one, but I’ll try my best so I have the option to let daddy take over.
If you’re looking for a baby bottle or are planning on bottlefeeding then go and take a look at the new Chicco range and decide for themselves if they are the bottle for you.
