These bottles are designed with an airflow vent system to help reduce gas and colic.  I purchased the 3 pack standard or "skinny" 8oz bottles.  There are also wide neck or what I call short and fat bottles.  I have been told that some babies are able to grip and hold the short/fat bottles easier than they are able to hold the standard bottles.  All I...

Before my daughter was born I decided to try out many different types of bottles. I was very interested in the Dr. Brown bottles and had heard amazing things about them. We received a starter kit at my baby shower and couldn't wait to try them. One thing I did not like from the beginning was the amount of parts on each bottle along with how hard it is to clean them. It is pretty much imposs...

Just about everyday I ride my bike 5 miles in the afternoon.  I have a trail that runs behind my apartment and the stretch of it that I do is about 2.5 miles out, and then 2.5 miles back in.  Where the trail ends and I turn around there is a little post with drinking fountains.  Well, the other day I decided I was pretty thirsty and I needed a drink.  Needless to say the wat...

When I heard about BPA, an additive in plastic that can be found in baby bottles and may cause harm, I decided to trade in my old bottles for new BPA free bottles.  The FDA has yet to ban the use of BPA but I'm still a cautious mom and decided I didn't want to take any chances just in case.  I decided to try Avent bottles.  The Avent bottles that are BPA free are&nbs...

I used to be one of those lazy people who didn't want to go to the garage and get a new water bottle when I finished with a bottle so I reused the bottle for a week and threw it away. That was a bad idea. Plastic bottles can leak harmful chemicals into your bottle and make the water taste like plastic as well as harm your body. So after weeks of researching, I settled on the Klean Kanteen b...

My hubby’s friend has just given birth to a baby girl recently and we didn’t have any ideas of what to give as a gift to that joyful couple. When we were looking around at the baby section in a department store last week, I saw this baby-bottle bag. I thought it was going to make a beautiful unique gift. So I bought it. It’s branded Elegance Baby, model BEX-SB03. The outer app...

I run a pet rat rescue, so you can imagine all the water bottles we have, have gotten donated, etc.I wish I could afford to fill the rescue with these bottles only!First off, they're glass (some small animals should NOT use glass bottles, by the way, so check before deciding!), which made me weary at first but eager to try. I love it. They're not too heavy, they are so much more durable...

Most health experts are quick to tell you how much water you should drink on any given day. Some say 6-8 full 8oz. glasses per day, while others will tell you the number of ounces should equal twice your body weight, especially if you are very active. Fast food chains were quick to jump on the band wagon, with most now offering bottled water on the menu. With that in mind, I was happy to see bo...

Searching for the right products to take on an outdoor excursion can be quite the task. There are many qualities that a product must have in order for it to pass the standards that I require of outdoor equipment. The peice of equipment must be durable, easy to use and fit form and function. While in the past I had gone on camping trips with the standard water bottle, I soon realized that there ...

You may be wondering if you should buy Dr. Brown bottles.  Are they really worth the hype?  I can only give you my experience.  The doctor suggested my daughter was getting too much air in the bottle which was making her very cranky.  I purchased the bottles and was never sorry.  She stopped crying and started smiling MUCH more.  You can even see tha...

This is a great assesst to have while barbequeing. There is a 10 ounce bottle to put your barbeque sauce into. The bottle includes measurement markings if you are wanting to create or make your own barbeque sauce. There is a valve that controls the flow of the barbeque sauce through the silicone bristles. This allows for the barbeque sauce to be easily distributed onto your food. This Barbeque ...

When I first brought my baby home I tried this bottle warmer and decided early on that it was not going to work. I tried warming up only a few ounces of formula and it took over 20 minutes! When a baby is crying for food this is not a good product to use. I found it a lot more useful to just put the bottle in a cup of hot water. The warmer does not have a timer or an on/off switch. Each time it...

I searched high and low to find a bottle warmer that was safe to use to re-heat breastmilk. I am returning to work soon after a year of maternity leave (isn't Canada GREAT!) and want to continue to pump & breastfeed until my son is completely on solids. You'd think that a lot of bottle warmers would be able to heat breastmilk but believe me, not a lot do. This until I found the Quic...

Since I came home from the hospital Avent bottles has always been my first choice. I started out breastfeeding first and when it was time to transition my baby didnt even notice the difference. I like the way the bottles are shaped because it adds more room for milk. I don't have to keep making bottles and I am sure that my baby is full. I love these bottles because they are unique and frie...

I love these bottles.  They came recommended by a friend and now I don't like to use anything else. They are simple, comfortable and easy to clean. The numbers are clear so it is very easy to measure. My baby doesn't seem to get much air bubbles until it gets to the last ounce. Then it starts to give her more air.  You can clean them with a baby bottle brush or you can do what...

Sigg water bottles offer high quality water bottles that last a life time. I'm trying to make myself a bit more aware of the environment so I thought that it would be a nice idea to use a non perishable bottle. They are a little expensive but in the end I though Sigg was the best choice because they are meant to be very strong. I soon found out for myself that these bottles  are indest...

Working in the kitchen is one of my least favorite things to do. Whether it's cooking or cleaning, I don't enjoy it. So, I look for any little thing I can find to brighten my time in the there.A local gift shop carried these bottles. They come in a wide range of sizes, colors and designs, with everything from soap or hand lotion bottles to bottles that could hold olive oil. You can just...

I’m sure that most of you know this brand, Tupperware. I got this bottle from my mother-in-law a few months ago (I don’t know the model number, though). The cap is bloody red colored, and on top of the cap there is a clip-like opener, making easier if we want to pour a little of whatever inside the bottle without having to remove the cap. There are two measurement number written on ...

The hip clip water bottle holder is a great invention! Now I can walk around without having to carry my water bottle in my hand.  It's especially great at the fair so I have my hands free to grab a snack or to play a game.  What's even better is that I can wear 2 hip clips and carry around my kid's water bottle too!My bike doesn't have a water bottle cage anymore so I ...

I've had this Nalgene for years -- I believe I originally purchased it in 2003, for a trekking trip in the Himalayas -- and it's been more than a water bottle for me. It's practically an accessory. I never leave home without it! It's very durable (I've accidentally dropped it a thousand times, and you can hardly see a scratch on it, I guess this is thanks to the Lexan plasti...
