Life Made Easy With Playtex

RMLPlaytex2

Just before Zoë arrived (in June) I was nervous that having three little ones was going to feel overwhelming. Much to my surprise becoming a family of five has been easier than I had anticipated. Aside from the no sleep – that’s just something I’ll never get used to, haha! I find this time around, with our daughter, I’m much more relaxed and I think that has a lot to do with the knowledge I have from raising our boys. There are some things I wish I knew the first time, like with Austin our eldest. He had reflux as a baby and he had it bad. Constant throwing up (I’m talking projectile vomiting – awful) and colic from gas pains. It’s so sad when nothing seems to help. We went through the same issues a few years later with Max as well. We tried everything to reduce the reflux to a minimum. Having his crib mattress on a bit of an angle seemed to help a little but what really did the trick was switching bottle brands. We started using Playtex and I swear by them now. Their bottles really reduced the amount of air intake for Max when he was bottle feeding and he seemed so much more comfortable.

I’m always on the look out for new products that make life as a parent easier and was intrigued when I heard about the Playtex Nurser with Drop-Ins Liners. My interest was piqued when I found out the liners are disposable and you don’t need to constantly wash bottles. If that’s not a mom win, then I don’t know what is! We tried the 4oz Nurser bottle with drop-ins liners and love how convenient they are, especially when we are out running around. We recently started bottle feeding Zoë and the switch has been surprisingly easy, she’s taken to it quicker than I expected. I was nervous about trying a new bottle with her because of the colic issue but the liners in the Playtex bottles collapse gently, preventing air from mixing in with the milk. I’ve yet to notice much discomfort or colic with her since using them which is great.

I’d like to give 65 of you the opportunity to try out your own sample of the Nurser Drop-ins and to review them on Amazon.ca. ** To participate in this program you have to have made an Amazon purchase in the past (doesn’t matter what you’ve purchased – just an active Amazon.ca account), otherwise you will be unable to leave a review** One of the reviewers will be selected at random to win an Amazon gift card ($150 value). You can review either the 4oz. slow flow (for younger babies) or 8oz. medium flow (for older babies). To be eligible to win the $150 Amazon gift card you will have to provide me with the link to your review and I will draw from everyone who completed the task. To enter, just leave a comment below telling me why you’d like to try one of Playtex Nurser Drop Ins. I’ll notify the 25 people selected on Monday Nov 2. Good Luck!

    I am currently pregnant with #2 and heard really good things about these bottles. Ideally i would love to try for convience purposes. To not have to be washing and sterilizing as much as i did with my first would be wonderful. And also give me more time with my babies 🙂

    • reneemleblanc says

      October 20, 2015 at 3:20 am

      Exactly! More time with babies is always a win/win! Congrats for baby 2!

    I used Playtex with my first born and was very happy with the product. I am currently 6 1/2 months pregnant with no 2 due in January. I would love to try the new bottles and provide you with the feedback you require. Thank you for the opportunity.

    Thank you for posting this! I’d love to try this with my 6 month of who is transitioning to the bottle now. Maybe this will help make it easier for her. So far she hates all of them. Here’s hoping this is the winner!

    • reneemleblanc says

    I would love to try the 8 oz medium flow. My son was born 3 months premature and is now 9 months old (6 months corrected). Feeding was a slow but amazing obstacle that we had to over come in the beginning (I say amazing because every obstacle we watched him overcome was the most incredible thing to witness). Like yours, he also had reflux and we tried every trick in the books, sleeping on an angle, side line feeding, burping often through feeds, medication. He is also a combination of bottle and breastfed. He is very picky with the bottles he likes. We currently use Dr. Browns which he likes, but there are a million parts to clean. If I could find another bottle that he likes but doesn’t require the amount of cleaning we currently do, I would be more than happy to switch brands!

    • reneemleblanc says

      October 22, 2015 at 12:14 pm

      Awe that’s awesome, glad your son is doing well! Yeah reflux is hard, more sad to watch them go through it than anything! Hope you like these bottles as much as we do – they definitely make life easier!

  20. Lauren says

    October 22, 2015 at 3:10 pm

    I’ll try it!

  21. Crystal says

    I Would love to try out these bottles. I have seen the playtex bottles used by friends and family many years ago and I Really liked how easy they were to clean. I would love to see the new style of bottle and see if it works for my little one.

    • reneemleblanc says

    October 27, 2015 at 3:21 pm

    We could really use these bottles, I think they’d be great for our situation. We’re currently breastfeeding and pumping so that my husband can bottle feed our 1 month old. Unfortunately the bottles/nipples that we have came with our pump and are not very good!

  24. julie says

    October 27, 2015 at 4:04 pm

    I have a 7 month old baby girl and have been bottle feeding due to being selfemployed and have returned to work part-time. Would love to try the playtex dropin liners please.

  25. Kaela says

    October 31, 2015 at 4:17 am

    I would love to try these out for my 7 month old. I have been exclusively pumping since she was born and hate washing bottles. If there was something more convenient that won’t give her terrible gas, I would love it!!

    • reneemleblanc says

      November 1, 2015 at 5:21 pm

      Then these are the bottles for you! Will email you this week 🙂
