Adiri BPA Free Natural Nurser Ultimate Bottle Stage 1 White, Slow Flow (0-3 months) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

I LOVE THIS BOTTLE!!!!!! It has been a most welcome answer to my prayers when it came to my picky daughter! I waited until my daughter was 5 weeks old to introduce a bottle of pumped breast milk (just as I did with my first child). However, she was not at all interested in anything to do with a fake nipple! For almost 3 weeks, my husband and I tried everything! We tried several different types of bottles that worked with my first child: Playtex Ventaire, Playtex Drop- ins (silicone and latex nipples), Dr. Browns, and the list goes on. We tried giving the bottle when I was out of the house; we tried with me giving the bottle. I even called a lactation consultant and cried as she told me to just keep trying... I was getting so worried about returning to work in a couple of weeks and was researching my troubles on the internet and I came across this bottle. I was willing to try anything, and after reading the previous reviews, I decided that one more bottle couldn't hurt.Well, it worked immediately! My daughter took right to it! I don't know what it is about this bottle. I guess the material just makes it soft enough that it was able to fool her! In fact, today, my daughter even took the bottle from me:)Some people complained that the bottle leaks, but I have not had a problem and have been using it for about 2 weeks. This only downfall to this bottle is that you can't put it in a bottle warmer, but it doesn't bother me!If your son/daughter is fighting every other bottle, I highly recommend trying this one!

I bought this thinking it would be a good transition from breast to bottle. The bottle looks cool and feels good and one would think it would make the baby feel right at home like it was nursing. However, it leaks, you can't heat it up in the bottle warmer, you have to boil to sterilize rather than using the bottle sterilizer, you have to invert the bottle to fill it and it leaks out the nipple and have I mentioned it leaks?It was 6.99 plus shipping, we have used it twice, thinking we used it wrong the first time. It sits in the cabinet now gathering dust. The best bottles I swear by are the Gerber Nuk and Breastflow. Breastflow is the best transition from bottle to breast in my opinion, the nipple is very soft and warming. The Gerber Nuks my girl takes in ZERO air when she uses those. I still breastfeed and she transitions nicely between those two and me.In short - save your money and buy something else unless you don't mind dealing with a leaky mess. If you want a cool looking bottle that isn't practical then buy this one. Sorry...I really tried to be objective.

I got this because my 2 month old daughter refused to take a bottle (and still does in fact). And I mean would not even latch onto the bottle. She could not be fooled between bottle and breast. I will say this is THE MOST like a breast that I have seen, and trust me, I have tried lots of bottles. I like how it is so soft and squishy and the nipple is short. My daughter basically gags on all the other ENORMOUS nipples on most bottles. After rubbing my smell all over this one she did latch onto it and sucked an ounce down when I tried...the most success by far we've had.There are some definite downsides however to this bottle: it has a twist bottom so you have to turn the bottle over to pour the milk in and therefore a little bit will leak out of the nipple, can be somewhat messy. I also don't like the cap. It covers almost the whole bottle instead of just the nipple so it's really big and kind of hard to get on or off.Overall, I would say if you're having issues with your child taking a bottle, this is worth a shot, but if your kiddo will take most anything, go for something more practical and less expensive and something you can buy in the store.

Ok, that's a little bit of an exaggeration. But this was the last resort for us after trying to get the baby to take all kinds of nipples from my husband with no luck. If this one didn't work it was going to mean I didn't get to leave the house for more than 2 hours until the kid was on solid food, and things were getting pretty tense between the husband and me!After a few days of easing into it, the baby now takes this bottle like a charm - even from me in his carseat while we're driving. Thank God.The bottle has MAJOR design flaws, as noted by pretty much everyone. Here's how I avoid the problems - so successfully that I never lose any milk anymore.1. Always hold the bottle by whatever is on the bottom (be it the screw on vent cap or the big cover), because the cover doesn't stay on at all. If you hold the bottle by whatever is on top, the cover will inevitably fall off and leave you with a lot of spilt milk.2. Ignore completely Adiri's stupid instructions about inverting the bottle into the cover before you fill it and putting the nipple into the recessed space. It doesn't work and leaks anyway. Instead, forget the cover completely; simply wash your hand and hold your finger(s) over the nipple while pouring milk in.3. Before using the bottle, thoroughly dry the screw-on grooves, both on the bottle and on the cap, so that where they screw together they create a good seal. Adiri advises also drying the nipple, the nipple recession in the cover, and I think the little vent disk area. I don't know if those steps are necessary but the screw grooves are.4. Have your containers of milk pre-opened before you start the process so you're not fiddling with them while trying to cover the nipple hole with your other hand.5. Once you've got your finger on the nipple, tilt the bottle the minimal angle necessary (ie, keep it as horizontal as possible). (In case of leaks, the more vertical the bottle is, the faster the milk leaves the nipple, so this way you save as much as you can.) Then screw the cap on as tight as you can, turn it right side up, and screw it further one more time to see if you can get it tighter. Don't put the cover on if it's not necessary - its loose grip on the bottle will cause accidents.6. Buy the "warming cap" if you'd like to be able to heat the milk by running the Adiri directly under water instead of pre-warming it. Just keep the nipple out of the stream of water.Tip to Adiri...next time you update the bottle, it would be awfully easy to print a second set of oz/ml measurements going up from the bottom, so that whichever direction the bottle is pointing in, it's easy to tell how much is in there. Not sure why this hasn't been designed in already - it's sort of obvious.A word of advice about introducing the Adiri if your baby has rejected other bottles - make it like a relaxed game for the baby. Try to de-stress and just approach the baby in a fun way, *without the goal at first* of having her or him actually drink from the bottle. Just give it a few days where your only goal is to let them play with the nipple in their mouth. This bottle feels good to them, which leads them eventually to suck on their own if they're not too freaked out, and I think the stress of us parents about how badly we need them to take a bottle really rubs off on the baby.
