Bottle Starter Sets
A "starter set" is a sensible way to get started with one brand of bottle. Round out the starter set with a couple smaller packs of bottles to be sure you have a good supply on hand. Six to eight bottles is a good supply to start with if you exclusively bottle feed and clean once or twice a day.

BornFree is a leader in BPA-free bottles and is the most widely available BPA-free option. In addition, this bottle features an inner valve that prevents leaking, even when you shake the bottle -- a sensible innovation. This eleven piece starter set include three 5-oz bottles, one 9-oz bottle and a sippy cup.

A Green to Grow bottle is not the least expensive or easiest to find, but it is a hip green option. We like this company's moxie -- and their smiley logo on the bottle. A little pricey and obscure (but perfect if you prefer pricey and obscure), but look for them to quickly expand distribution. The "basics" starter set contains two bottles, a package of nipples and an organic tote.

Yes, this is your mother's Playtex Nurser -- think of it as retro or a family tradition. It also happens to be BPA-free and many nursing moms swear by it when their little ones refuse other bottles. The disposable liners, while not environmentally friendly, do nearly eliminate air and make clean-up a snap. The Playtex Nurser system is also less expensive than other BPA bottles but requires the ongoing purchases of liners. The Gift Set contains two 4-oz bottles and two 8-oz bottles, 15 liners for each, and breast milk storage components.
