Jaycel Panesa profile picture
Soft silicone body that's squeezable and wide-neck; excellent if you want something that feels more “breast-like” and is easy to clean. Great for breastfed babies or bottle transition
Comotomo Silicone Bottles
 
Jaycel Panesa profile picture
Has an AirFree vent – helps reduce air swallowed, which helps with colic and gas. Also fairly large capacity; good if baby takes more volume or for fewer feed sessions.

Nipple care

Nipple care is super important especially if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or pumping
 
Jaycel Panesa profile picture
100% pure lanolin; good barrier for protection; well known brand (Medela). Similar texture to Lansinoh; heavy feel if used in large amounts; cost adds up if you go through it often.
Purelan 100 Nipple Cream - 37g
 
Jaycel Panesa profile picture
Plant/herbal-based alternative; good if you prefer non-lanolin; useful ingredients like herbs etc. Might be less “heavy duty” in severely cracked cases; herbal scent or texture may not suit everyone.
Mothers Love Nipple Cream
 
Jaycel Panesa profile picture
Certified organic; more clean/plant-based; more balm-like texture; still safe for baby. Price higher; may absorb faster so might need more frequent reapplication.
Lansinoh Organic Nipple Balm for Breastfeeding and Dry Skin, 2 Ounce Jar
 
Jaycel Panesa profile picture
Weleda is well-known in natural/organic skincare; smaller tins, more portable; good reputation. Tin packaging means fingers go in; hygiene important; may be more oily/greasy.
