description Philips Avent Anti-colic Bottle Overview
The Philips Avent Anti-colic bottle is a consistently top-rated choice for newborns and babies prone to gas and discomfort. Its innovative venting system, integrated into the nipple, releases air during feeding, minimizing air ingestion and reducing colic symptoms. The bottle's ergonomic design is comfortable for parents to hold, and the wide neck makes filling and cleaning easy. Avent nipples are known for their natural feel, encouraging a latch similar to breastfeeding.
While the bottle can be slightly more expensive than some alternatives, the benefits for a fussy baby are often well worth the investment.
help Philips Avent Anti-colic Bottle FAQ
How does the AirFree vent in a Philips Avent Anti-colic bottle work?
The one-piece AirFree vent draws air away from the nipple so it stays filled with milk, even when the bottle is held horizontally. Philips says this supports upright feeding and may reduce swallowed air associated with gas, colic, and reflux.
Can I use the Philips Avent Anti-colic bottle without the AirFree vent?
Yes, Philips specifically says its Anti-colic bottles can be used with or without the AirFree vent. When the vent is installed, it should remain at the top during feeding.
Do Natural Response nipples fit Philips Avent Anti-colic bottles?
Philips says the AirFree vent can work with an Anti-colic or Natural Response nipple when the matching screw ring is used. Compatibility can differ with glass bottles, so the exact bottle and ring combination should be checked before mixing parts.
How often should Philips Avent Anti-colic nipples be replaced?
Philips recommends replacing the nipples every three months for hygiene reasons. Replace one sooner if the silicone becomes cracked, torn, sticky, or otherwise damaged.
