baby bottles

[siddie]

My 2nd baby is due at the end of Nov, and my choice is to bottle feed as I did my 1st child.  I then used Avent bottles, but found that they leaked a lot of the time!  Can anyone tell me if the Tommy Tippy bottles are any better?

I use Tommy and they don't leak (well, mine are OK anyway).

I found that if you use the flat and wide bottomed teats on the avent bottles they do not leak atall.

Why not breast feed then you dont need to worry about leaking bottles. There is an increase of bottle fed babys getting serious tummy bugs from bottle feeding, such things dont happen with breast feeding, which has other health benefits for baby and for you. You cant lose anything by trying to breast feed but you can lose out by not trying.

I found the Avent ones a bit leaky, I had to put the lid on and off a few times to check it was OK.

Got some TT ones and they were fine, and you can buy replacement teats as well which is handy as they grow up.

Agree to some extent with previous post suggesting breastfeeding unless there is some reason why you can't.  Found it more convenient, helped me lose some weight, and knew it was better for baby.  But saying that, completely your choice and do what you feel comfortable with.
