Tommee Tippee Closer To Nature Bottles Review & Giveaway (2/24)

by Marcie on January 31, 2012

My sister is a bit more than halfway through her pregnancy and still unsure as to whether she’ll breastfeed, formula feed, or a combination of both. I feel that regardless of her decision, she will need quality baby bottles to assure that her son receives his milk as smoothly as possible. What’s more, gassy, fussy colic babies seem to run in our family, as well as frequent spitting up. Given those facts alone I know my nephew will need the best and I’m happy to announce that I’ve found them!

Tommee Tippee is Great Britain’s number one baby feeding brand and thankfully, they’re available here in the United States for us as well. With an array of products specializing in both breastfeeding and bottle feeding, as well as sterilizers, monitors, sippy cups, pacifiers and more, parents are sure to come to know and trust a brand that has over 50 years of experience and is recognized world wide.

The Tommee Tippee Closer To Nature bottles were inspired and developed by breastfeeding moms, midwives, and babies! They are intuitively designed with easier, more natural feeding by featuring a uniquely soft, super wide nipple that naturally flexes and bends like a breast. The superior unique natural shape allows baby to latch easily and makes transitioning between breast and bottle a cinch. An added bonus to the Closer To Nature bottles are their ultra sensitive anti-colic valves, which allows babies to feed at their own pace while getting less air, vacuum build up or nipple collapse.

There are a few different types of Tommee Tippee starter kits. The Decorated Newborn Starter Sets, available in blue or pink. The Sensitive Tummy Starter Set for babies with a higher risk of upset tummies, and the original Newborn Starter Set. All starter kits include Four 9oz bottles, two 5oz bottles, a bottle and nipple cleaning brush, hygiene caps to seal nipples, and an extra goodie or two, such as a pacifier, formula dispenser, or extra valves. Of course, all Tommee Tippee bottles are also BPA & Phthalate free, to ensure our babies are safe and secure.

The great folks at Tommee Tippee sent us an assortment of bottles to review including the Newborn Starter Kit and a few Sensitive Tummy bottles. I am so excited to help my sister try them out and feed my nephew. The bottles are shaped differently then I’m personally used to and I absolutely love it. They seem easier for both parents and eventually babies to hold onto!  Each Tommee Tippee bottle has a valve included to prevent excess air and I have to confess, these made me nervous at first. Looking back that is certainly laughable, as the valve is easy to clean and even easier to attach. The nipples are very natural feeling and move easily and naturally. With different flow nipples available through Tommee Tippee, these bottles can last from the beginning stages, when they seem to drink slowly to the later months when they gulp and chug their milk like champs!

I’d also like to mention a spectacular FREE feature available from Tommee Tippee. It’s a web application called The Day Baby Was Born and it’s a fun, simple way to capture special moments from your pregnancy and the birth of your baby by automatically pulling memories from your Facebook account to put together and create a storybook to share with family and friends. As mothers, we know it’s difficult to remember every single detail so the mark milestones to look back on and treasure for years to come is super important and fun! You can get started as soon as you find out you’re pregnant, or bookmark the site for a later date!

The products that I love most are the bottles because they adapt so well to breast feeding. It really seems to make the transition easier!
