Has anyone tried Playtex Drop-Ins

My 4 month old is refusing to take a bottle and I read somewhere about people in this situation having success with the Playtex Drop-Ins bottles. Has anyone tried these and been successful? Can anyone recommend?

I tried them after they were recommended by a mum at our playgroup who had the same problem. She spoke highly of them. Didn't work for us unfortunately but my DC2 is particularly stubborn Grin.

Amazon do a trial kit for a fiver which might be a good way to start.

Oh brill. Will look on Amazon and give it a go. Thanks. I am dealing with a particularly stubborn one too, so not holding my breath....

I love them - they were the only bottle I could get DS1 to take.

Though it turned out the real reason he was refusing all bottles was because I have a weird enzyme thing where my chilled EBM tastes like soap. Rapid heating and cooling solves that problem but it took a while to figure it out.

Playtex bottles are supposed to be more boob-like than most and the wee bags mean that babies don't gulp air by mistake.

If afraid we put the disposable bags in the dishwasher and use them over and over again.

I got mine from Infantcare.

For small babies the 4 oz bottles are handier than the 8 oz ones, especially if you are using EBM! Of course, you can use the 4 oz liners in the 8 oz bottles.

We used them and the worked well.
