Playtex drop in bottles?

Question

i am a little concerned about feeding my newborn with these. the thing is that as milk i am using enfamil formula in powder. when i put in the water and add the powder, many mnay many bubbles show up. when i try to push the air out, all the bubbles come out. the bubbles are not really air is milk. so i don't know wether i should leave the bubbles in or push them out.

Answer 1

Leave the bubbles they wont cause any harm and will settle by themselves. I use the same bottles and formula with my 8 mo old and he never has any gas problems or anything.

Answer 2

I always pushed the bubbles out until a stream of milk comes out.  It wil shoot up in the air. you cannot miss it.  If the bubbles are in there then that is air getting in your babys belly.  

Answer 3

Don't shake them so hard. Or let them sit for a minute, they really are the best bottles.

Answer 4

Mix the formula in another container with a spoon (shaking causes the air bubbles then you have to just sit and wait for the bubbles to settle down) then pour into the playtex drop in bottle and when you push the air out there shouldn't be the bubbles.  

Answer 5

mix in in another container and then pour it in. always take out th bubbles

Answer 6

If you are concerned about the bubbles, make the bottles in the morning and as you let them sit, in the fridge of course, throughout the day the bubbles will go away.

Answer 7

I use the same bottles but I mix the formula in a separate container.  Sounds weird but I sterilized a 32 ounce pickle jar and lid and use that to mix it in.  It still has bubbles but not as many.  Push all the bubbles that you can out of the liner.  Bubbles are air and hurt baby's tummy.

Answer 8

i mix mine up ahead of time in a regular bottle or cup then refrigerate. it gives the bubbles time to settle and there is air in the bubbles.. we have had lots of gas issues and finally switched to the playtex a while back they do seem to help us.

Answer 9

Those are great bottles. Push the bubbles out. You aren't losing that much milk in the bubbles. Just think, if you use different bottles you cant get the bubbles out at all and then the baby just has gas. Try mixing the fomula with a spoon instead of shaking it.
