Tommee Tippee

“Closer to Nature”

It’s not a secret that I am a nursing mother. I love to breastfeed for many reasons…

Breastmilk is invaluable to my baby’s health
Cost-effective
Creates a bond between Mother and Child (love that I can steal her away from others since I’m the only one with the goods!)
Helps me to burn extra calories

* In no particular order!

When I nursed Mini-Me {who is now almost 4, YIKES!}, we had a hard time with her using a bottle. My husband literally bought every type of bottle within a 10-mile radius because she just wasn’t happy with any of the nipples, but Mommies! While that was nice knowing that she knew “Breast Is Best!” at such a young age, Momma needs a break. So, around 3 months of age, we found the Mam line of bottles, and she accepted those. However, with Sissy {now 8 weeks old!} she wasn’t so accepting of the Mam or Playtex bottles. She had more milk coming out of her mouth than actually taking in, creating a MESS.

Thankfully, Tommee Tippee came to our rescue! The Tommee Tippee nipples are designed like a mother’s breast. Jason, my hubs, was so afraid of feeding her because she would literally choke. A week after using the bottles, he realized how much easier it was to feed her with the Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature bottles. I actually came out from taking a much-needed shower one evening, and he was feeding the baby all on his own! That made me one happy Momma.

Features and Benefits of Closer to Nature Bottles:

BPA- and phthalate-free
Unique soft, ultra-wide nipple mimics the natural shape, feel, and movement of breastfeeding.
The ultra-sensitive anti-colic valve lets babies feed at their own pace for less air, vacuum build-up, and nipple collapse.
Seamless transition from breast to bottle
Shaped for a comfortable hold for baby and mom
Nipples are progressively staged to meet the baby’s needs from the first latch to the first sips.

Tommee Tippee also carries insulated bottle bags that I attach to my diaper bag. Before leaving the home, I’ll place some thawed breastmilk into a Tommee Tippee bottle, place it into the insulated bag, and head out the door. Then when Sissy gets hungry during our shopping adventure or a night out to dinner I’ll reach for the Tommee Tippee Insulated Bag and feed her a bottle. This keeps the battle lukewarm instead of room temperature. Although I think when she’s hungry, she’ll eat anything!

I also received a Tommee Tippee Breast Pad Starter Pack. The reusable Tommee Tippee pads have become my favorite simply because they work. When the breast milk dries on the pad, it doesn’t get hard like the others I’ve been using. The starter kit costs around $29.99.
