Are you a zombie parent dealing with colic?

I have been so lucky (knocking on wood) that none of my Goofy Goobers have had colic!  However, my youngest Goofy Goober has an extremely sensitive stomach and milk, soy protein intolerance as well.  So, finding a bottle that helps eliminate ANY and ALL excess air to help him out in any way has been my mission lately!  I have tried others geared towards gas/colic issues...I won't name names or point fingers, but the parts and pieces are hard to clean on those! The one we've used most often with our little Goober is from Similac.. if you read about it, its got love and hate reviews.  We haven't had the issues most of described but I am finding it is no longer my 'go to' bottle!

I contacted tommee tippee and they were happy to donate two (2) tommee tippee closer to nature anti-colic bottles for this review!! (Kudos to them right!)  I am very excited to give you all my review on these bottles! 

Ready or not here...we... go!!!!

    

Introducing the tommee tippee closer to nature added comfort anti-colic bottle!  

In the package it looks like a normal tommee tippee bottle, right?! We've all seen those in stores.  However once you open the package you can clearly see the insides of this bottle.

I took it all apart and this is what is left!

And of course this is what it looks like when its filled with formula! 

This formula photo is JUST after I got done shaking the bottle, and as you can see there are clearly very few bubbles left in the formula!

Okay enough photos, let me get to the review!

Here are my thoughts on this bottle: For a 5fl oz bottle its rather stubby (ha!) however, that is the trend with tommee tippee bottles so nothing to be concerned about for me!   I adore that it comes with a cleaning brush, which makes this mommy VERY happy.  Add that to the fact that once you mix the formula there are little to NO air bubbles left for your Goober to swallow and to me you've got an A+ bottle!

PROS:  The wand in the middle, and the 'wheel' as they call it at the top under the nipple virtually eliminate any and all air bubbles!  To me, if you're suffering from a colic prone child, or your child is overly gassy this bottle may be a solution for you! Its a small bottle, as in its short! It IS a wide bottle, but that doesnt bother me! Our Goofy Goober is just starting to try to hold his bottle so this has been helpful to him!

CONS:  One of my pros could be one of your cons, which would be its size!  Like I said, the fact its short and stubby doesn't bother me, but if you like your bottles tall and lean this probably isn't the bottle for you!  Other than that I do not have more cons! (yet.. I will edit this later after many many uses to see if I still am in love with everything on this bottle!) 

So as always on a scale of 1-10 (1 being do NOT buy and 10 being RUN and buy) I would rate this a 9!  If you have a Goofy Goober at home who is suffering from gas or colic why not try it and see if it works for you!
