With its new soft zone, the silicone baglet is a better fit against the roof of your baby´s mouth – giving a natural feeling while drinking. We were disappointed the bottle had no protective sleeve available. Since drops and bumps are inevitable, we think many parents would appreciate an extra layer of protection for a glass baby bottle. Glass is also heavier than silicone and plastic. We suggest monitoring your child while they drink from this bottle because its weight could pose a challenge, and older children could move around or become squirmy, increasing the chance of a drop. That’s really up to you and your preferences. There are pros and cons to both glass and plastic baby bottles, and every mum you talk to will have an opinion on them. Choose a bottle that suits you and you’re baby, and you’re winning. The transparent sleeve is BPA-free and gives every bottle a new look. Clean the sleeve by rinsing thoroughly by hand.
Whether a natural product or a special synthetic material, all NUK Teats are soft and adapt to the inside of a child’s mouth. Of course you can also switch between teat materials. In case you are unsure of which material is better for your child, you can let your child decide too: many accept only the one but not the other. Any parent who bottle-fed their baby will tell you that not every bottle is the same. Even the size of the bottle can help – or hinder – your baby accepting it for feeding. Polyamide are synthetic materials with a high level of transparency, which it retains by being chemical-resistant – discolouring and clouding are a thing of the past. Polyamide is BPA-free, but not suitable for the microwave however. This is a function that has not yet existed in this form before. To help from feeding the contents of the bottle too hot to your baby, NUK First Choice + baby bottles now feature the new NUK Temperature Control Indicator. It looks like a thermometer, is located within the graduation marks and the temperature of the contents of the bottle makes it change colour. In the future, the function will help parents to achieve the optimum temperature when feeding their baby.
Will you be claiming the VAT back?
However, given the discovery of this chemical, who’s to say there aren’t more nasties hiding in plastic that we don’t know about yet? Here are the best bottles our editors have highlighted through research. And it's all supported by our parents in the BabyCentre community.
Glass bottles are also really easy to clean and don’t store dirt or bacteria in the way plastic can. If the food is too hot, the normally blue indicator will turn white. Ideally, the food for feeding should have body temperature (37°C) and corresponds to the mean blue tone on the display. The new Temperature Control function is integrated in NUK First Choice + bottles made of polyamide and polypropylene. Licensed editions are excluded. Knowing exactly when baby's feed is at the right temperature can be a challenge. NUK First Choice+ baby bottles now have a built-in Temperature Control indicator located on the bottle's graduation marks that changes colour from blue to white when the bottle's contents are too hot (above the optimal feeding temperature of 37 degrees), so you can be sure your baby's milk is always at a comfortable drinking temperature. This bottle is the ideal choice for combined feeding* as the NUK orthodontic teat simulates the shape of a mother's nipple during breastfeeding which gives baby a natural and familiar drinking sensation. The innovative teat also minimises colics** thanks to the NUK Anti-Colic Air System that ensures a natural flow to help your baby drink without swallowing air. NUK Baby Bottles are made from different materials. The greatest tangible difference is between glass and plastic – both materials are very suitable for baby formula and breast milk. Here you can find some points to help you make your decision. The NUK Simply Natural Glass is an excellent glass bottle with longevity if you carefully handle it throughout the feeding years. We appreciate its glass makeup, not just from a health standpoint but also environmentally, considering the production and recyclability of glass. Compared to the baby bottle competition, the NUK combines the right features to score high, surpassing other glass options. Those who are unsure about silicone may be motivated to select this bottle. What Other Baby Bottles Should You Consider?
Recall Details
NUK Silicone Teats are made from a high-quality synthetic material. The clear silicone material is easily cleaned and highly heat-resistant. Even direct sunlight or edible fats do not age the material. Silicone teats have a neutral taste and smell. However, silicone is slightly less bite and tear-resistant than latex. For this reason, NUK also uses firmer, more bite-resistant silicone material for the size 3 teat. Should a silicone teat have even small bite marks or other signs of damage, it should be replaced immediately. For reasons of hygiene and safety, it is generally recommended to replace all teats – whether latex or silicone – after 1-2 months. Likewise, there are one or two anti-reflux bottles. This is quite a worrying claim. Reflux is a medical problem, and no bottle would ever be able to make it better. Also, the word "natural" used to describe a bottle might suggest that some bottles are less good, or unnatural, which is simply untrue. Due to its particularly natural shape, the NUK teat is accepted well by babies. This means that it is specially suited for babies who are both bottle and breastfeed.
You will have heard of BPA (bisphenol A), which we’ve been avoiding in plastic goods for a long time. This chemical can leach into drinks and food, so it’s always vital to make sure any bottles, plastic lunchboxes, or bags are BPA-free.Thanks to the flexible silicone material and the wide opening it is very easy to use: simply place the bottle into the sleeve and close it with the button: worrying about glass shards in the family kitchen is now a thing of the past! Even if a bottle does break the shards stay in the sleeve and can be disposed of safely. The transparent narrow window lets you always see how full the bottle is. Includes Size 1 (0-6m) Latex Teat with Medium Feed Hole. Latex is softer and more flexible than silicone which can make it easier for some babies to adapt to, it is also more bite resistant Suitable for combination feeding* - the extra wide lip support simulates breast feeding as closely as possible NUK offers baby bottles made out of the synthetic materials polypropylene (PP) andpolyamides (PA). They are particularly light and nearly unbreakable and with that, optimally-suited for use both at home and out and about. The NUK Anti-Colic Air System ensures a natural flow to help your baby drink without swallowing air.
Bottom line, no one type of bottle is best. Choose one and see how your baby likes it. Some babies will adapt to the bottle straight away, others might need a bit of time to learn the new skill of feeding from that bottle, so don't give up too soon. Each time you change to a new style of bottle, your baby has to start learning all over again.' For many years, NUK First Choice has been the first choice for bottle feeding modelled on breastfeeding. With NUK First Choice + we have managed to get even closer to nature – for healthy jaw development and a drinking sensation as if at a mother’s breast. Plus, if you’ve noticed how plastic can begin to smell over time, you’ll be glad to know this won’t happen with glass. Plastic traps dirt and bacteria, whereas glass won’t. Are glass baby bottles eco-friendly?
What Other Baby Bottles Should You Consider?
However, plastic is neither as heat-resistant as glass and nor as scratchproof. When the bottles are scratched inside, you should replace them, as germs can settle in the scratches more easily. Glass is the classic material for drinking containers – and also for baby foods. Today, with its higher scratch resistance, glass is a particularly resiliant and environmentally-friendly material. NUK only offers products made from borosilicate glass, which, with its cross-linked surface structure is particularly heat-resistant. Thanks to the high level of transparency of the glass you can easily see if there is any milk or other residue still there when cleaning the bottles. The high heat-resistance means you can clean the glass baby bottles as often as you like and even boil them. And should you give older children tea or juice in them, then the glass of the bottle does not discolour. Scientific study: Moral et al. BMC Pediatrics 2010, 10:6.
