I have to admit that I was avoiding buying Avent bottles because it seems like everyone gets them and they are so expensive. So me wanting to be my own way of cool and save money I just got some generic store brand bottles. We've been using them so far and on the package it says "vented nipples" but with no picture or explanation of how. Anyways, Jeremy has to pause every 2 sucks to let the nipple re-inflate, and stops to cry in the middle of eating about 5 times because he has to burp. Then he cries and fusses after eating until he eventually falls asleep. He has never just had a calm happy moment on his own, always needing to be held and rocked. I watched him eating closely this afternoon and realized all the things I wrote above so I decided to get an Avent bottle. OH MY GOSH! He finished eating over an hour ago and has just been laying on a blanket on the floor awake, alert, and as cute as ever. No crying! He drank so much faster and it seemed completely unlabored. He only needed to burp at the end. I can't tell you how happy Tyler and I are. We are staring at him stunned that he has gone this long just chilling on a blanket. I had to video his glorious temperament so here ya go!

Sometimes you just canNOT go generic!! Yay for the brand name bottles!! :)
If you need more avent bottles for Jeremy, we have a ton that will never get used that can be passed to jeremy. They are pretty pricey, but they last forever, so you can pass it to one person after another. We just never used them because we preferred the born free system. I can send them to Amy.
