We're so excited to have our bottle mentioned and reviewed by Lauren Midgley! Lauren is a new mom with over 1.4 million views on her channel. "I really was so impressed with the bottle and am excited to share this with me viewers!".
Lauren primarily breastfeeds her baby but also gives him a bottle on occasion. Here are some highlights of what she had to say:

]]>It is so overwhelming to pick a name for your little one. The idea of both parents deciding on one name for the most important thing to ever happen in your lives together seems impossible! But, the search can be fun with so many resources available.
You probably have a name...or ten, that you are leaning towards, but you might just be waiting for that feeling of “the one.” Keeping a list, and checking back on it often can really help weed out those names that will most likely not be keepers. Family names are always a safe way to go, but if you are really wondering what is out there, or feel like you haven’t found “the one”, here are a few of our fav lists to help you find a name for your little one:
And just for fun, if you are looking for names for the grandparents, you must check this out from Pregnant Chicken.
Good luck in your search!!
]]>Janna and Braden have two young children. But Mom can't be around 24/7, she needs time to get away!
It's scary when Mom is away! Dad doesn't have the milk supply but that doesn't mean all hope is lost! Before Janna goes out, she makes sure there is pumped milk in the freezer in case baby Maya gets hungry before she returns.
Flipsi bottles give Braden the peace of mind to know that he will be able to feed Maya when Mom isn't around. Braden also loves how the bottle flips inside out so he is confident that the bottle is clean and there is no mold hiding in any crevaces. Most importantly, Maya takes to the Flipsi bottle right away!

In short, here is what she had to say: "I LOVE THIS BOTTLE!"
]]>Keyana's son was very gassy and often suffered from colic. Curious to see if Flipsi could help, we sent her a bottle in exchange for her honest review.
In short, here is what she had to say: "I LOVE THIS BOTTLE!"
Before Flipsi, Keyana had to give her son Colic Calm Gripe Water to help with the gas he was getting from other bottles. After using the Flipsi bottle, he doesn't need the Colic Calm anymore!

]]>We're very excited to have our Flipsi bottle reviewed by Larianne and her 10 month old son Jonathan!
In the review, Larianne compares Flipsi to other bottles on the market. She chooses Flipsi because:
"When i'm washing the other bottles, I feel like oh my goodness, i'm never going to get these things clean." and "I make myself feel good knowing I am giving my child a clean product (flipsi baby bottle) to drink out of."
Additionally, when referring to other anti-colic "tall bottles" that are on the market, she notes that when using a bottle brush "you can't get all the corners" and appreciates the fact that she can with Flipsi bottles.

Jennifer at Funtimes Lucky was kind enough to do a video overview and unboxing of the Flipsi Baby bottle. She also shows the difference between the various replacement nipple sizes available, ranging from newborn all the way to 9+ months.

]]>We're thrilled to have our bottle featured and reviewed by IRL Mommy! She is a breastfeeding advocate with over 130,000 Youtube subscribers.
In her words Flipsi "has a more breast friendly shaped nipple" is a "kinda genius invention" and has "so many more features that the other bottles I've used"

]]>Many moms rely on hand expression or pumping so that the milk can be stored and fed to their baby at a later time. How this breastmilk (or formula) is delivered to the baby can have significant impacts on the nutrient levels in the milk.
A study from the University of Nevada by Francis et. al “Decreasing retinol and α-tocopherol concentrations in human milk and infant formula using varied bottle systems” [1] shows that baby bottles where bubble formation is observed during a 20 minute simulated feeding have lower levels of Vitamin A and Vitamin E that bottles where no bubble formation exists.
“By analyzing a 20-minute simulated feeding, retinol and alpha-tocopherol each displayed decreases over time significantly different than that of the Control, which was milk not exposed to bottle feeding.
In human milk, retinol showed as high as a 9.5% decrease compared to the Control. Similar trends were seen with the infant formula samples.
The correlation between degradation and bottle feeding systems was dependent upon the formation of bubbles in the milk as the milk was removed from the bottle. The analysis indicated a decrease of up to 12%, as seen in retinol, and 35%, as seen in alpha-tocopherol. These decreases in retinol and alpha-tocopherol should be considered when using a bottle feeding system to deliver either human milk or formula to an infant.” [1]
In other words - air reduces the level of vitamins in baby milk and formula over time. When a baby bottle exposes a bigger surface of milk contacting air, it reduces these vitamins more quickly.
[2]
The Dr. Brown’s bottle was the highest performing bottle in the study, outperforming bottles which vent air through the milk, since it funnels the air needed to equalize the internal pressure past the milk and into the back of the bottle.
While this venting mechanism functions well, the multiple small parts can be difficult to clean.
[3]
Although the Flipsi Baby bottle was not tested as part of this study (it didn’t exist in 2012) it is expected to exceed in nutrient preservation since the Flipsi Baby bottle does not rely on air being vented through the milk to equalize the pressure.
In fact, due to its flexible sides, it doesn’t need any venting at all:
Flipsi bottles also have a unique feature which allows you to squeeze all the air out before storage or feeding to minimize milk oxidation and prevent nutrient degradation.
Babies love the vaccum created, because it prevents them from sucking in air.
Vitamin C, A, and E all declined during simulated bottle feeding in as little as 5 minutes [1]. These vitamins are critical for the health and growth of infants.
Vitamin C is important physiological antioxidant and is required for biosynthesis of collagen, an essential part of connective tissue and vital to wound healing [4-6].
Vitamin A is important to combat infections and support rapid growth [7].
Vitamin E is an essential antioxidant to protect and support immune system development [8].
