Product Description
The Breastflow Starter Set is a great gift for expecting and new moms. The kit includes everything needed to get started: two 5 oz bottles with Stage 1 nipples and bottle covers, two 9 oz bottles with Stage 2 flow nipples and bottle covers, a unique snap-to-bottle container, and bottle brush.Breastflow is the only feeding system that requires both suction and compression, just like breast feeding. The nipple is designed to mimic the breast so baby can latch on and to encourage the same mouth and tongue position as breast feeding. The double nipple system requires both suction and compression, just like breast feeding and baby controls the flow of milk. It's the bottle most like breastfeeding.
Amazon.com Product Reviews
The First Years designed the Breastflow bottles for transitions between bottle feeding and breastfeeding. The outer layer of the "nipple-within-nipple" design compresses and mimics the feel of a breast, while the inner is more firm to acclimate to bottle feeding. The stage one nipples require compression and suction, and the stage two nipples are designed for medium flow. The starter kit comes with two 5 ounce bottles (and two stage one nipples), two 9 ounce bottles (with stage two nipples), four bottle covers that fit the bottom of the bottles, a snap-to container that can hold snacks and formula, and a bottle brush. The First Years Breastflow is a fantastic design for parents introducing the bottle, and for nursing mothers switching to and from bottle and breast. --Scott Teal

Summary: Awesome! 2008-08-26
Comment: No leaks at all, maybe others' bottles were defective or they didn't put on or align the nipple correctly. Works just like the breast...no nipple confusion when I had to use these for a GI formula trial with my infant daughter. We switched right on to these from the breast, and right back onto the breast when the formula trial was finished with no fuss!
BPA free would be preferred, of course...

Summary: great for breastfeeding but... 2008-08-18
Comment: I have been breastfeeding my daughter now for 5 weeks and everytime i go to work twice a week my baby was feeding from medela and born free bottles but when i would get home , my daughter would latch all wrong and it would take me two days to fix her latch! These nipples are perfect but the bottle does contain BPA! I was hesitant to buy thesr for three whole weeks then my nipple cracked one night and OMG!!! So as a chemist i know that BPA is only expelled through heat so I DO NOT ever store, heat or sterilize these bottles..instead wash with ice cold bottled water and store your milk in medela or bornfree bottles and even heat the milk in these then transfer or use bottle liners!hopefully they make a bpa free bottle soon and then i'll give them five stars...be careful but if you breastfeed and pump..these bottle are PERFECT..the nipples are just PERFECT! I am grateful and so are my breasts =D

Summary: Contains BPA -- TOXIC Substance!!! 2008-08-11
Comment: BPA, a synthetic sex hormone that mimics estrogen, is used to make hard polycarbonate plastic. Ninety-five percent of all baby bottles on the market are made with bisphenol A. The results of the U.S. study show that, when new bottles are heated, those manufactured by Avent, Evenflo, Dr. Brown's and Disney/First Years leached between 4.7 - 8.3 parts per billion of bisphenol A.
Do your research, moms! There are lots of bottles out there that don't contain BPA. Trusted brands like Green to grow, Born Free, Adiri, and Thinkbaby.

Summary: awesome bottles 2008-08-05
Comment: I love these bottles. It made using bottles while breastfeeding easy. Our daughter took them without much effort and fuss. My only complaint is that they aren't listed as BPA free so I am assuming that they are not. I wish they were, especially as I read more about the effects on children.

Summary: you can use avent tempo liners if concerned about bpa 2008-08-04
Comment: Our frequent-feeding baby took to these bottles right away and was able to switch back and forth between breast and bottle without a hitch. This bottle has helped to maintain our sanity by letting my wife skip one feeding a day to catch up on sleep. Only the hard plastic/polycarbonate bottle is not BPA-free, but BPA is not present in the double nipple system (inner and outer) which is why we bought this product in the first place. I believe another reviewer commented that the Avent Tempo disposable liners (which are BPA-free) fit these bottles perfectly. We have found this one-two combo to work well, and have found that the liners also reduce air-swallowing as they slowly collapse during feeding. That said, we did do some research on BPA and it seems that it leaches only over time/heat, so using the bottle without a liner a couple times in an emergency when it is still new would be okay too. We have not noticed any problems cleaning the inner/outer nipple after disassembly. So long as the baby latches on properly, I haven't had any problems with the outer nipple collapsing during feeding. Proper latch also seems to minimize milk collecting between the inner and outer nipples. If this were to happen, remember to press the outer nipple inward at two of the four tabs (not just any two, look for the two specifically with holes) to let the precious milk drain back into the bottle.
