Bottles

So I'm 37+1 weeks today and I have no bottles ! Mostly because I don't know what brand is good or what to look for ? My mom used Evenflo with all 3 of us , but I see everyone using Dr.Brown or just regular Walmart bottles.  Is there a difference ? & what formula is best ?

I'm using MAM and Tommee Tippee they are supposed to be closer to mothers nipples and since I'll be breast feeding it lowers the chance of nipple confusion .....but the sizes are for different ages a newborn will only eat 2-4 oz every feeding so the smaller bottles are for when they are very new still as they increase intake of food you move up to bigger bottles ...as for formula I used enfamil with my first but really they are all the same anymore

Im using MAM bottles. They help prevent colic and the nipples are said to feel more like Mom.

I'm using Parents Choice Brand along with the diapers, wipeys, shampoo, lotion lol any thing I can think of. . . I even used their formula because it's exactly the same as the Enfamil Premium just so much more affordable:) good luck momma. Try not to stress, once baby.gets here you'll figure it out with her/Him.

I use avent and suggest that you get small nipples because the baby can choke if too much milk comes out

And then is there a specific size ? Some are so tiny and others are huge ! I didn't find out I was pregnant until I was 21 weeks and didn't start looking at stuff until I was about 30 weeks !

My mom used avent with us, I know theyre kind of expensive but I bought 3 big ones and two lil ones and I received 2 lil disney branded bottles. But its okay Ive felt clueless most of my pregnancy. Lol ftm

I wouldn't be set on just one brand or type because baby may not like the one you choose so just try different types. I have all different sizes and brands of bottles and passifiers
