Bottles--your opinion please!

Ok ladies, currently i am FF and have been back to work for 2 weeks. LO uses Tommee Tippee bottles all day, everyday. Since being back at work, my mother has been helping out a ton with watching him and picking him up from daycare when he is there. This saves us a ton of money. There will be days he's with my mother for quite awhile and goes through all of his bottles that i have packed. My mom has bought her own set of Avent bottles to keep at her house in case he runs out. I guess its easier than washing bottles the whole time. I wanted to know, have you ever used 2 different bottles for LO? Were there any issues? I know every baby is different. Just looking for opinions! Thanks!

DD used a bunch of bottles. However, we stuck with mostly Tommee Tippee and Playtex Drop Ins. Never had any issues.

We had Medela, Nuk, and BornFree bottles for DS. He had no issue using different types of bottles. As long as your LO them there's no reason you can't switch around.

Baby G uses Playtex VentAire (4 angled ones), Avent (3 different ones), MAM bottles, and NUK.

 He doesn't know the difference and takes all of them well. I figured it's best to get them use to a variety because it's easier than washing bottles all day.

We have at least 4 diff't bottle types in rotation and haven't had any issues. We use the TT, Dr. Brown's, Similac, and Born Free and I think I have a random Nuk bottle in there as well!

Joey has one Avent and 2 Nuk bottles. He prefers the Nuk, but he took the Avent one a while back for about a week. He has since gone back to the Nuk.

I think if the nipples are not shaped too differently between your bottles, it should be fine.

We only use Born Free b/c the other two brands I tried gave him bad gas from sucking in too much air. Now that we've found one that works I'm too afraid to try any different ones, however he probably wouldn't even care. .
