Which bottles did you find better for wind and colic?

Trying to help our 4 week old who struggles to bring up wind at times and is colicky overnight.

Dr Browns or MAM?

Thanks!

Have no experience of the Dr Browns but we found Mam Anti-colic bottles to be a great help to our little boy with getting up wind & burps, he is 5 weeks now & we have been using them since around 2 weeks I think.

Does it have to be those brands? If not, I used Avent Anti Colic that worked well.

DS use MAM when he was little. But that was because he only accepted MAM bottles. For wind i think it didn't do much. We had Dr Browns as well. It looked like it would help with wind. But ds wouldnt use it. We had Avent anti colic too which was very similar design with Dr Browns but with softer teats. We actually had loads of other brands (probably every reputable brand on the market) none really helped with his wind - even when we moved to bf later on he was still windy and constantly cried during/after feeding. The only thing helped was himself who eventually grew out of it.

We started on MAM and then switched to Dr Browns at around 4 weeks when DD’s wind got really bad, I do think that it made a small improvement

Dr Brown's helped both my DS's they are a right faff on to clean though.
