Breastfeeding in a Bottle! Why We Love Comotomo Baby Bottles

Feeling stressed about whether your baby is eating the right amount of milk or gaining plenty of weight is common among many nursing moms. For some parents, finding a high-quality baby bottle that closely mimics breastfeeding goes a long way toward relieving some of that anxiety. Comotomo baby bottles are designed to mimic breastfeeding in order to help babies easily transition back and forth from nursing to bottle feeding. In fact, it’s rescued so many families dealing with nipple confusion and bottle rejection that their customers have coined the term “Breastfeeding in a Bottle!” Here’s a closer look at what we love about these amazing baby bottles.

 

Why They’re Unique

Comotomo nipples feature a large, soft base and flexible nipple tip that closely simulates natural breastfeeding, making it simpler for many babies to transition from breast to bottle and back. The bottle itself is even made of the same pliable silicone as the nipple, making it easier for older babies to hold and squeeze, just as they would with a breast.

Intelligent Design

The Comotomo baby bottle offers various flow options for different age groups: slow-flow nipples for 0 to 3 months and replacement nipples with increasing flow rates for older babies. The flow size is not directly labeled on the nipple but can be identified by the number of holes or Y-cut on the nipple. There are also anti-colic vents on the side of the nipple, developed to help your baby take in less air, resulting in less gas, indigestion, and spit-up.

The bottles are available in either green or pink and in both 5- and 8-ounce sizes. (You can even grab a Comotomo baby bottle bundle that includes both sizes.) The wide neck design of the bottle makes it easy to clean without using a bottle brush. It is made of BPA, phthalates, and PVC-free medical-grade silicone, allowing safe boiling and dishwasher use without concerns about harmful chemicals being released.

 

Easy to Use

Comotomo baby bottles hold up well. The screw top is virtually leak-proof, so you can simply toss it into your diaper bag with no worries. Need to warm up the milk in your Comotomo bottle? Just pop it into an electric baby bottle warmer to heat up your baby’s bottle in just a few minutes (even the amazing Baby Brezza bottle warmer is Comotomo-friendly). When it’s time to clean your bottles, Comotomo recommends sterilizing the bottles in boiling water for five minutes with a tiny bit of baking soda and then letting them air-dry (open side up) in a well-ventilated area. They’re also safe to clean in dishwashers (top rack), as well as microwave, steam, and electric sterilizers.

 

What Parents Are Saying About Comotomo Bottles

Take a look at what these families love about this innovative bottle design.

“I am a breastfeeding mom, and I was worried that when my daughter started daycare and bottles she would rather have the bottle than my breast. These bottles ensured that my baby still wanted to breastfeed. They are so cute and easy to clean. They look just like the picture, and the silicone bottle makes it feel similar to my breast when my baby grabs it. I would never buy a different bottle, and I highly recommend these!”

“I am not exaggerating when I say I literally cried the first time we tried this bottle and have been elated since. My little one has a high soft palate and a lip tie, making feeding difficult. Before her ties could be addressed, we had to supplement… Every time we tried to supplement, including with expressed breast milk, there was immediate screaming and it was a heartbreaking process for me, my partner, and my baby. Eventually got these… my little one took to it immediately without any fuss. It wasn't very much work for her to take it, even with paced feedings (although to finish we did have to tilt her back at the end due to the shape of the bottle.) If you have a kid with an ‘abnormal’ mouth structure or even one who refuses bottle feeds, give this bottle a try! I hope it is as worth it for you as it was for us.”

“The Comotomo bottle nipple has been a game-changer for me and my baby. I absolutely love how it mimics the natural breast, creating a more comfortable and familiar feeding experience. The design is not only thoughtful but also incredibly easy to clean, making my life as a parent much more convenient. The inclusion of air valves that limit air intake is a fantastic feature, reducing the risk of colic and discomfort for my little one. Additionally, the use of silicone is a huge plus, as it is safe, durable, and gives me peace of mind. Overall, the Comotomo bottle has exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it to other parents who prioritize a natural feeding experience and ease of use.”

“My 5-month-old loves these! We went through a few brands of bottles before settling on these, due to so many having multiple pieces which caused leaking all the time. Haven't had any issues with these, so we bought 2 boxes. He feeds really well from them and it's nice that they are squishy lol. Feels more natural than the usual hard plastic bottles. Also, the width of them makes it much easier to clean. Not to mention, they are bottles that don't need a million pieces to function properly! So very happy with this purchase.”

The Verdict

Comotomo bottles provide a great solution for breastfeeding moms who want more flexibility in their feeding schedule. The bottles' wide and soft mound design ensures a smooth transition between breast and bottle. Cleaning is a breeze due to the wide neck that allows easy access with a dish sponge, and their BPA-free material ensures they are safe to use in the dishwasher. All in all, we definitely think they’re worth the investment!
