Nurture Your Little One with Natural Feeding

The Philips Avent Natural Response 260ml bottle is thoughtfully designed to support your baby's unique feeding journey, offering a seamless transition between breast and bottle. This 9oz baby bottle is ideal for infants aged 1 month and older, providing a familiar and comfortable feeding experience that respects your baby's natural feeding rhythm. Whether you are exclusively bottle-feeding, supplementing breastfeeding, or introducing your baby to a bottle, the Natural Response bottle is engineered to mimic the natural flow of milk from the breast, making feeding time a stress-free and bonding experience for both you and your little one. Its ergonomic design and advanced teat technology aim to reduce fussiness and colic, promoting a healthier and happier feeding routine.

Why Choose the Philips Avent Natural Response 260ml Bottle?

• Mimics Breastfeeding: The innovative teat allows milk to flow only when the baby actively drinks, just like breastfeeding, preventing milk from flowing when the baby pauses or is repositioned.
• Supports Natural Latch: The wide, soft, and textured teat is designed to encourage a natural latch, making it easier for babies to transition between breast and bottle.
• Reduces Colic and Fussiness: The anti-colic valve is designed to prevent air from entering your baby's tummy, reducing colic and discomfort.
• Ergonomic Design: The unique shape of the bottle allows for a comfortable grip, even for your baby's tiny hands, promoting independent feeding as they grow.
• BPA-Free Material: Made from high-quality, BPA-free polypropylene, ensuring the safety and health of your baby.
• Easy to Assemble and Clean: With fewer parts than other bottles, this bottle is simple to put together and thoroughly clean, saving you precious time.
• Versatile Size: The 260ml (9oz) capacity is perfect for growing babies who require larger feeding amounts.

Key Features That Make It Special

The Philips Avent Natural Response bottle stands out due to its groundbreaking Natural Response teat. This intelligent teat is designed with a unique opening that only releases milk when the baby applies suction. This means that when your baby pauses to breathe or rest, the milk flow automatically stops, preventing choking and dribbling. This mimics the natural let-down reflex of breastfeeding, giving your baby control over the milk flow and reinforcing their natural feeding rhythm. The teat's soft, skin-like texture and flexible design further enhance the feeling of breastfeeding, making it an excellent choice for babies who may be sensitive or transitioning to bottle feeding.

Beyond the innovative teat, the ergonomic bottle shape is a significant advantage. The contoured design fits comfortably in your hands during feeding sessions, and as your baby gets older, they can learn to hold the bottle themselves, fostering independence. The bottle is made from durable, BPA-free polypropylene, which is safe for your baby and easy to sterilize. The anti-colic system is also integrated seamlessly, working with the teat to ensure a comfortable feeding experience.

How to Prepare and Use

• Wash Thoroughly: Before the first use, and after each subsequent use, wash all parts of the bottle in warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and then sterilize.
• Sterilization: Sterilize all bottle parts by boiling them in water for 5 minutes, using a steam sterilizer, or by using a microwave sterilizer.
• Assembly: Ensure all parts are dry before assembly. Screw the teat securely into the ring, then attach the ring to the bottle. Screw on the cap firmly.
• Filling the Bottle: Carefully pour cooled boiled water into the bottle, then add formula according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Feeding: Hold the bottle at a slight angle so the teat is always full of milk to prevent air intake. Let your baby control the pace of feeding.
• Cleaning After Use: Discard any leftover milk immediately after feeding. Wash all parts promptly to prevent milk residue build-up.
