原文: I first started feeding my newborn baby 80%bottle and 20% nursing as I had some issues with supply. A few weeks, then I began oversupplying and was told by my LC to forget about pumping and just nurse my baby girl. I began exclusively nursing my LO at 4 weeks and only 3 weeks later, my baby started
rejecting the bottle. Uninterested. Playing with the nipple. Couldn’t seem to get any milk down. We had bottle nipples even in the beginning when was actually taking the bottle. Leakage, collapsing nipples, or choking since the flow (even NB flow) was too fast. We tried avent, medela, Dr brown’s... finally we just settled on dr Browns. Even though she was still leaking milk out of the sides of her mouth, she seemed to be able to feed okay without getting too angry. Fast forward a few weeks and here we are with the bottle rejection. I needed to return to work so having someone else feed her is essential. She would cry at the bottle. It would take us 1-1.5 hours to get 1 oz down.. IF we were lucky. Some days she wouldn’t take any at all. We tried many bottles... lansinoh, munchkin, avent, medela, spectra, and of course Dr Browns. It was always a fight. Everytime.
I read about these expensive bottles and began to feel discouraged. How many times do bottle companies claim to have that natural feel and flow for the baby? All the time. Never true.
I splurged on one bottle first. I have so many sets of useless bottles, I figure I will just get one. Its adorable, squishy, round, and boob like... but will it do what it claims to?
I tried it and my baby cried. Sigh. Again with this. Good thing I only bought one! But I tried again and she didn’t seem so angry. A few days later and we got the hang of it! You have to figure out your baby but once you got it, she will be happy with the bottle. I have figured out that my LO has to be on the verge of sleeping to take the bottle, otherwise she will fight. With other bottles, she will get choked on the milk, unable to get milk out, etc etc when she finally does latch. It was so frustrating! But with this, once she latches she is good to go. I still can’t feed her right after a nap so we have to time it just right... but once we got the hang of it, we GOT IT. No choking. No overflowing onto the bib. No splashing of milk. I will say this is the best ventilation and nipple we have gotten. The search for the perfect bottle is OVER and though there is an art to feeding her, I at least can rest well knowing she will at least take this one.

译文: 刚开始我喂养我刚出生的宝宝80%牛奶和20%母乳,因为我弄了其他一些东西补给。几个星期后,我开始补充更多,并被我的LC告知忘记给她喝牛奶,只是用母乳喂我的宝贝女儿。接下来的4周我一直只用母乳喂她,只有3周后,我的宝宝开始抗拒用奶瓶喝牛奶。不感兴趣的玩奶嘴,似乎没办法喝牛奶。甚至在刚开始,就算在有奶瓶的情况下,我们也只用奶嘴。牛奶漏出来,奶嘴折叠,或宝宝噎到都是因为牛奶流动太快。我们试过新安怡、梅德拉、布朗博士。最后,我们还是决定用布朗博士。尽管宝宝还是会从嘴边漏出牛奶,但她似乎能在不生气的情况下进食。几个星期后,她又开始拒绝奶瓶。我需要回去工作,所以让别人喂她是有必要的的。她会对着瓶子哭。喂她喝下1盎司我们大约要花1.15小时。如果我们幸运的话,某一天她一点儿都不会喝。我们试了很多种奶瓶,兰辛诺,芒奇金,新安怡,梅德拉,波谱,当然还有布朗博士。这总是一场战斗,每一次都是!
我开始对这些昂贵的瓶子感到气馁。生产奶瓶的公司有多少次声称他们的奶瓶有天然的感觉?每次都是这样,但都不是真的。
我先试了一个奶瓶。因为之前我有这么多没用的瓶子,我想这次就买一瓶。它可爱,光滑,圆,和奶嘴像…但是它真的会像它说的那样吗?
我用了,我的孩子哭了。叹气。再来一次。还好我只买一个!但我又试了一次,她似乎没有那么生气。几天后,我们找到了窍门!你必须找出你的宝宝使用时候的诀窍。但一旦你找到了,她会很高兴用这个奶瓶的。我已经知道我的宝宝是必须在睡着的边缘拿起瓶子,否则她会拳打脚踢的。用其他奶瓶,她会被呛到牛奶,没办法喝到牛奶等,最终她还是牢牢地抓住奶瓶,太令人心疼了!但是用这种奶瓶,一旦她拿好了,我就可以走了。小睡之后我还不能喂她,所以我们必须把时间掐得刚刚好…但是一旦我们掌握了窍门,我们就明白了。没有呛到,没有溢出到围兜上,牛奶没有溅出来,我想说这是我买到的最好的奶嘴。终于找到了一个完美的奶瓶。虽然喂她喝奶真的很难,但我可以放心她至少会用这一个。
