Which bottles are best?

Currently pg with DC2, and wondering if anyone can recommend anti-colic bottles that DON'T LEAK for expressed milk. Bought Dr Brown's for DS, and after forking out a fortune discovered they leak like a tap. Every time I use them, everything gets soaked in breast milk (which stinks after) and I don't mind admitting Dr Brown is on the receiving end of some choice expletives from both myself and dh.

My sil uses 'born free' bottles and was wondering if anyone had any experience of them, and if so where to get them (she lives abroad).

TIA.

Watching with interest. We had Avent last time and they did leak, but we kind of got the knack of how to screw the tops on better. Still a pita though and wondering what the alternatives are like.

I always used Mams for DS. Never had a problem -The new ones you can self sterilise on microwave which is handy if you only need it occassionally. Can't comment on new design though DD won't let us use it as she's a complete bottle refuser!

Mam ones are great and never leaked. Think mothercare and bigger tesco stores sell them.

I used born free, never had any issues with leaks, excellent bottles, no issues with colic although they are more fiddly to clean and put together than say, Avent bottles. Having said this, would def use again. Got them from babies are us and from the born free website.
