Every baby will respond to different bottles differently. Lauren transitioned well, back and forth with the Avent bottles. Elena preferred Dr. Brown's. Both, by the way, have BPA-free versions available (Dr. Brown's even has glass.) I tend to lean towards the wider-nipple design of bottles, since it helps remind your baby the shape his/her mouth should have on a proper breastfeeding latch. Most brands offer this wider design. I'd start by purchasing (or borrowing) a single bottle of the Avent, Dr. Browns (wide-neck) and Born-Free brands. Use each brand for a few days and see how your baby reacts to them. Does your baby seem to prefer one over the other? Do you struggle after a certain brand to get the latch right? After you've figured out which one your baby seems to like best, then you can go out and buy a set. This way you don't waste your money buying bottles your baby doesn't like. Hope this helps, Heather ;-) BTW, If you haven't seen it, I wrote an article on baby bottles last year. <a href="http://www.the-essential-infant-resource-for-moms.com/Best-Baby-Bottle.html">You can see it here.</a> (It does need some updating, but it still may be useful...)
