Hands-Free Baby Bottle - Anti-Colic Self Feeding Baby Bottle System 4 oz (2 Pack - Podee Pink)

I used a hands free bottle with both of my boys who are 28 and 24 now, and this is one of my go-to baby shower gifts. Easy to clean provided you rinse out the tubes when done, or have the thin long brushes to clean them. It let's mom or dad eat their own dinner while feeding and holding the baby, use their other hand for any tasks needed! Also makes car trips super easy. The babies don't spit up as much, or need to burp as bad because they get no air from the bottle at all.

I work from home so this was great to have. The first day was a little challenging and took her getting used to it. Second day much better but she needs to have her hands distracted because she’ll pull the tubes and I’m scared it all come apart. But overall love this product

It has taken me a long time to revisit this product.I believe that this bottle had a large aid in my baby having extra gas, causing him to vomit and then aspirate on his vomit.I have twins so the morning I received these we immediately set them up for use. We followed instructions perfectly. The ONLY difference in my babies routine that day is that we used these bottles.I had wondered if air was coming through this bottle but assumed it was fine because it’s allowed to be purchased so it must be safe for my baby.Almost immediately after eating I noticed my babies (twins) were excessively burping and passing gas. One of them became so uncomfortable so I rocked him upright and he eventually went to sleep.About a half hour later after going to sleep I laid him down beside me in his crib. He didn’t make a single sound and I’m so grateful I noticed his movement because he began thrashing .I realized he was not able to breathe and upon picking him up saw his nose and his mouth was clogged with his own spit up. Immediately I called 911.Very quickly we begin baby choking maneuvers(Thank GOD we took that class) unfortunately upon flipping him over he had turned blue. Finally a cop arrived prior to the ambulance and took over. He dug some of the spit up out to where he was at least wheezing SOME air. He was still blue and becoming lethargic.The EMT, later ER, hospital and doctor all told me it was due to having too much gas in his system. When he threw up it went through his nose as well and caused his airway to be clogged.I threw these bottles away and I’ve NEVER had that issue again

The bottle is helpful but needs to be elevated for the milk to flow. It does have a lot of air in the tube and took several sucks to get the milk to flow through.

After being very skeptical and hessitant to buy this because of the negative reviews I am very glad I took the leap. One of the reasons, and as mentioned by most people on here I did not want to buy this was because I was afraid my baby would keep spitting out the nipple or wouldn't give enough suction to the nipple to drink his milk. This is because he doesn't take a pacifier and every time I tried to give him one he would immediately spit it out. I was wrong, because as long as there was something coming out of it he held on to it. I had no problems with him spitting out the nipple or not being able to drink out of it. Of course there were a few times when the bottle tipped over or he pushed it out accidentially with his hands but I just put it right back in. This is great for if you need to do something quick around the home, or if you're traveling in the car or pushing around a stroller. I know many people on here are talking about using this as a bad parenting fopa. However, this is just to make your life a little easier especially if you have more than one child. Secondly, its not for use 24/7, its for those occasional times when you have little time to spare, or can't stop in the middle of the street for a feeding. The best part is you can purchase the parts seperately to attach with any regular 8 oz. bottle with a standard neck, and change the nipple to your liking. I can also see why the makers claim it helps prevent colic. The nipple that comes with it is a natural flow/slow flow nipple so your baby is not gulping down more than they can handle and it makes them fuller quicker so they are not taking more than they need. My baby is a big feeder and I was always worried I was giving him too much formula, so this helps that. Plus, it will NOT leak while he's drinking it, and he burps immediately afterwards which is a great sign so fingers crossed.For all those who had a problem with assembly, I can personally say it took me less than 30 seconds to put together and take apart with the instructions provided, One larger sized ring attaches to the top with the 6 inch pipe and the smaller ring attaches to the other with the shorter pipe. As far as cleaning goes, its pretty quick surprisingly and you really don't need to clean it out with the pipe cleaner every single feeding unless you see that it needs to. sterilizing it in hot water for a few minutes cleans it out so that it stays clean for a couple of feedings, plus its worth it. I would definitely recommend this for anyone.Note: There is no chocking hazard like with other hands-free bottle holders since your baby isn't directly chugging out of the bottle. They're basically drinking out of a straw and it take some work so they are feeding a little slower.
