We have spent so much money on AVENT bottles because we kept replacing them when they leaked and realised that its obviously not us - its the brand! I want to change to another one, and would love some advice on which ones are good. I have a 10 month old and I would also like to know if there are any teats that are similar to the avent ones as i dont want to change her whole sucking technique. I have tried the Medela - but the teats are too soft and not fast enough :(
Any ideas or suggestions - Australian brands??) Thanks

Hi i have all avent bottles as well lateley i bought a 3 pack of 260ml they had the size 2 nipple and they leaked i swapped them for the size 1 nipple and havent had anymore problems. Deffinetly intersted to know different brands.

Do you have much luck getting your 10 month old to drink out of sippy cup. My son is 10 months as well and only chews on the end of cup

wow and i thought it was me doing something wrong... i got the same issue with the avent bottes, when my daughter was on the bottle i used the playtext ones... but after a while they started leaking when anything hot/warm was put in them... but they're really good at preventing gas, i've been using it since my daughter was 2 weeks old and she's never had an issue with gas

we use like 3 different types of bottles. we also started with Avent, and they leaked for us as well. very disappointed. and now my favorite ones are the soothie bottles. i had originally bought them because i had plans to use the soothie binky as well, but we never used a binky, she loves these bottles though, and we have never had a problem. and we have had like 6 of the same ones for 10 months now. good luck,

I used born free they are great! and when your little one gets older you can buy just the nipples for training to use a sippy cup so you dont have to buy all new sippy cups. Ive used them since my little guy was born and never had a problem with any leaking or anything! good luck!
