> 3 dayThese things work great. I take them to work, fill them up and bring them home. They also work great with the playtex bottle system. I can just screw my playtex bottle nipple on to these medela containers (actually, this works with any of the medela containers). I dont have to pour anything back and forth. For day care, I just send them a nipple and a couple of defrosted medela containers, and thats it! No fuss! No need to make the bottles.

> 3 dayI love these little bottles I wasnt lucky enough to beast feed with my youngest daughter it just didnt work out but I had a ton of these and thought I could multi use these so I started to put her formula and cearel in them for individual bottles saves lots of time to just grab a bottle and one of these prefilled bottles and go she 5 months old and Im still using them!

> 3 dayFor my first child I pumped and froze a lot of milk in a mixture of bags and bottles. The bottles worked the best for us for thawing purposes without any degradation of the milk. The bags held up well, but our baby wouldnt take that milk as often because I believe the bags may have changed the taste. This time around Im buying only bottles for freezing and storing!

> 3 dayI purchased these when my son was drinking 2 Oz feedings and for breastmilk storage when I was pumping. I love that these (and all medela bottles) can used with the Enfamil Nipples which my son has really liked since we were at the hospital.

> 3 dayI love these. I never used them for their intended purpose of storing breast milk. Rather I use them for formula. I dump in two scoops of formula (4oz) bottle and its a convenient way to store formula for a quick bottle. The formula scoop easily fits into the tube (no mess) and the tube easily dumps into my AVENT classic bottles. Its perfect. These are easily to clean (dishwasher), are durable and the size is perfect (I could use it for four scoops of formula - 8oz).

> 3 dayTotally useful. They fit the breast pump, the caps, and the nipples, so they can be used for pumping, storing, or feeding. They freeze perfectly (just leave a little room at the top for expansion when frozen). Also this slim size was easy for the baby to hold (shape and weight), so she could hold it herself when she was old enough and wanted to. The slim size also easily fit in a cooler, vs. the bulky wide bottles. The small volume means less waste. Id rather bring 3 mini bottles than 1 giant one, because it minimized waste and also let me wash the finished ones that much faster. Perfect in the dishwasher. Use a basket (or even a produce net knotted @ both ends, free!) to keep the lids safe in the dishwasher. They have not stained even though we eat a lot of tomato-based foods and they share the dishwasher. Now that I am no longer pumping, I use them to freeze extra whole milk when I get it on sale, so we have spare milk handy (even though we pour it into a cup now). Also useful for carrying a small supply of toddler snacks in the purse or diaper bag; screw on caps stay on better. I got by with one set of 12, but a second set would have been essential if we were not already running the dishwasher daily. Also this was eligible under my Health Care Flexible Spending Account (as are all breast pumps, pump parts, and milk storage); regular bottles are not! I used way fewer disposable milk storage bags after I found these storage bottles.

> 3 daySince each container holds 2.5 ozs of milk, these are perfect for when youre just starting to pump and probably dont produce very much milk. It sounds silly, but it eased my anxiety and made pumping easier when I attached one of these to my pump and was able to see it fill up than when I used one of the 5 oz Medela bottles and felt like I was barely collecting anything. The milk in these thaws fairly quickly, and its great to know how much youve stored. As a bonus, you can use a pencil to write the date and time on the side of the bottle and it washes/wipes off well, so its easy to use the containers again and again without getting confused.

> 3 dayI was sick of: a. Spending money on breastmilk storage bags and b. Having to clean the bottles I pumped into between pumpings. These fit right onto my pump so I can pump right into them and there are enough of them that I can store my pumped milk in them without having to transfer the milk to bags. I throw them in the dishwasher when the milk has been used. They dont hold much milk but I rarely get more than 2.5 oz out of one breast anyway...the times it happens, I just pause the pump and switch out. Basically, it was a good investment that has saved me time and money.

> 3 dayI love being able to pump, freeze and feed from this container. Just buy the Medela nipples to top these with and feed a newborn from. Both my kids took breast and bottle no problem
