Dr Browns or Mam?

My 3 week old is really struggling with wind. He's fed with expressed breast milk.
We've got tommee tippee bottles and mam bottles. I think the tommee tippees are the problem as he gulps the milk down.

I've just looked at dr Browns bottles on Amazon but the reviews say they leak.

I'm wondering just to stick with the mam bottles?

Anyone had experiences with the dr brown bottles leaking?

I’ve uses both and found them to be good for different ages. Dr Brown were great for us when our son was newborn and we never had any problems with leaking whereas he used to click quite badly on Mam bottles when he was born and suffered from terrible wind. Turns out our baby has a milk allergy that was making his wind terrible and his tummy hurt so we’re now on amino acid formula.
However at 15 weeks old we’re now back on Mam bottles as the flow on Dr Brown size 2 teats (3 months +) were way too fast (a frequent problem I’d read from people) but the size 1 had become too slow, so we went back to Mam and their size 2 teats which are for 2 months + and had real success.

We really like Dr. Browns and found they were great for both dc. You just have to remember to stir them not shake them or the squirt milk!
