Bottle recommendations

I'm a first time mom and I plan to breast feed but will have to pump as I will be returning to work after the baby is born so I'm wondering what brand/type of bottle should I use for my baby

Playtex drop-in bottles are fantastic for breast fed babies! Tomee Tipee is a new one for me, but I've heard good things about that one too... I like the drop in bottles bc the bottle nipples are shaped just like your breasts :) Good Luck!

I pumped for my first and successfully breast fed until I had to go back to work with my second. I used born free brand bottles for both and didn't have any problems.

I think it's better to experiment to let your baby try several ones and pick for himself/herself. Especially if he/she is used to breast, he/she will want something similar, most probably.
With my first baby, I let her choose, let me tell you she was pretty specific, she didn't like all of them. We got stuck with Dr. Brown.

If you want to continue to breastfeed and bottle feed then I recommend getting a bottle that has more of a nipple shape. I've heard good things about tomee tippee but I have not tried them yet. I used advent with my first and had no complaints. I exclusively pumped though so I'm not sure which is best to go between Breast and bottle.
