Munchkin Latch Bottle (8OZ/ 240ML, 2 pack)

Product Information

Ease of use also suffered for the Latch with a design that requires special instructions to install to ensure it works correctly. We found the instructions overly involved for a bottle and the potential for mistakes is higher than necessary. Making a mistake could influence how well the bottle works and whether or not it leaks. The valve design also means it can't be used with a bottle warmer because the possibility of steam or warming water entering into the bottle is high and not healthy for baby (even though Munchkin sells a bottle warmer, it is not compatible with their only bottle). The overall shape and design is similar to simpler bottles you can use in a warmer and don't require special instructions to assemble. This makes the Latch kind of hassle compared to the competition that scored higher in our tests. This valve will also need to be replaced at regular intervals, which increases the overall cost and continued maintenance of this bottle over the usual nipple replacement.

Another popular glass bottle is the Baby Brezza Two Piece Natural Glass Baby bottle. This particular bottle is unique in that it features a 2-piece design which makes cleaning and assembly so much easier. The Truflo anti-colic system is built into each nipple so that your baby doesn’t swallow air while drinking. This goes a long way in preventing acid reflux and gas. If there’s still a leak at the bottom, wrap a towel around the base of the bottle to avoid getting milk all over the baby.

Munchkin developed the Latch bottle with the hopes of easing the transition between breastfeeding and bottle feeding. The Latch bottle features two truly unique components - a flexible, accordion-style nipple designed to move with the baby and increase flow as baby puts pressure on the lower part (similar to way mom's breast works) and a one-way blue anti-colic valve at the base of the bottle. The nipple stretches and moves as baby moves which helps maintain the latch and theoretically reduces in the ingestion of air into the belly. This also is supposed to help create a better latch for baby which should ease the transition between the breast and bottle. It flexes like a real nipple, and has a smooth silicone feel that resembles the feeling of real skin, which is the reason babies love this bottle so much! With its slower flow, it also makes it a great choice for a baby bottle for colic and reflux. While some parents have reported leaking, many moms claim it works very well if you follow the assembly instructions! To try – Pura StainlessLeaking can occur if the nipple isn’t inserted into the ring correctly. You should also make sure the ring is screwed on tightly. Sometimes leaks can come from either side of the nipple which can be caused by clogged vents. Simply rinse the vents out with hot water to unclog them. Feeding babies who suffer from colic can be very difficult. Known for their anti-colic design, Playtex Ventaire bottles reduce air ingestion and make feeding babies with colic much easier. Another feature that makes Playtex a popular option, is the bottle’s ergonomic and angled design which facilitates semi-upright feeding. Pediatricians recommend this type of angled design to prevent ear infections.I also recommend it in my comparison Avent vs Playtex. Ensure the lid is properly aligned and screwed on very tightly to keep the nipple securely on the bottle.

Baby bottles differ with each brand. Designs, types of nipples and bottle shapes all vary making it difficult to label leaking problems for just one reason. When I found out Dr Brown bottles leaking, I decided to dig deeper to see how other brands are doing in this respect. Physicians across the U.S. recommend the Medela breast milk storage bottle for breastfed babies. If used together with the Medela breast pump, you’ll only need one container to pump, store and feed! Medela bottles tend to leak when the bottle is inverted for feeding. A few points to remember with this bottle include the following:

Interestingly, parents who buy bottles from this brand say that such products show minimal leakage. I was quite surprised to find that out when I compared Pigeon to Avent bottles, such as the Pigeon Breast Milk Heat Glass Bottle. Wrap up Many babies struggle to switch from drinking from the breast to drinking from a bottle. This happens mostly because of “nipple confusion.” That happens when the bottle nipple is very different from the breast and the baby struggles to associate the two. As a result, the baby might end up rejecting the bottle altogether.

Nanobebe bottles often leak from the pop-off bottom of the bottle. This happens when the bottom of the bottle isn’t screwed on tightly. According to Nanobebe, five easy steps should stop the leaking.To get a more accurate picture of the different reasons for bottles leaking, we’ll have to analyze each brand and see what the specific causes are. I’ll also give you some tips on how to avoid these leaks from happening. Playtex Ventaire bottles leaking Many users are unaware that there’s a plastic ring at the bottom, and ensuring this is dry when assembling the bottle makes all the difference!

Less Colic: While feeding, the accordion-style teat flexes as baby moves her head. This allows baby to maintain her latch, thus decreasing ingestion of air.Easy to hold - What shape are the bottles? Some bottles are straight, whilst others have gripped sides or ridges to create an ergonomic shape, which can be easy for your baby to hold as they get bigger. Spectra bottles don’t leak as much as some other brands. Parents who have reported leaks say the leaks don’t happen often. So, they chalk it down to the way they’re sitting or holding the bottle during feeding. Evenflo bottles leaking
