Travel Discs/ideas for Sealing Playtex Nursers?

I have looked everywhere for the small travel discs for placing between the nipple and the liner for Playtex Drop-Ins bottles. I have a couple (they must have come with my first bottle set), but I cannot find anywhere to buy replacements or extras. Babies R Us and Target don't carry them. I can't find them online. Does anyone have any ideas about how to help keep my bottles from spilling on the ride to day care? I can't believe Playtex doesn't sell travel discs. Every other bottle type has them. So I am looking for any ideas. Thanks!!...

Infant with Reflux

I have a almost 5 month old baby boy with reflux. He was born 13 weeks early. The doctor has him on previcid and it has not seemed to work. We have him on the Similic Advance formula. He does ok the first half of his feed, then the rest of his feed he will fight eating. Sometimes after he burps it gets better. He spits up after almost every feed. He is gaining weight. I was wondering if anyone else has had these problems and what worked for you. I am thinking of calling the doctor and putting him on a different formula. He also will cry...

Need Help on How to Use Playtex Drop in Bottles Correctly

My daughter is 2 weeks old and I am using the Playtex Drop In bottles. I am not to sure about these. It seems that when I set the bottle down to burp her the bottle takes in air so I am having to push the bag up each time. Do I need to be doing this? The bag is also not collaping during feedings. She also seems to be taking in a lot of air. Her tummy is always tightening up during feedings. I am current using the 4 oz bottles and making 2-3 oz of formula. It is also hard to check how much she is eating. I am currently pulling down on the...

Non-stop Nursing Then Not Interested Once He's There - Help!

I'm a first-time mom who has been breastfeeding my beautiful new son for the last three weeks. Lately, he seems like he wants to nurse non-stop but then doesn't seem interested when he's actually on the breast, so I take him off and then he fusses and wants to go back on. Some nursing sessions have lasted more than 90 minutes! He will nurse for a while and then just suck and screw around, so I will take him off only to put him back on in a few minutes when he starts crying and rooting. I go back and forth between breasts and never know...

How to Clean Playtex Sippy Cups?

Hi moms! My almost 16 month old son has been off the bottle since 12 months and is doing great with a sippy cup. We use the Playtex brand and they have been wonderful. However, we have noticed recently that no matter what we do to clean them, the milk and juice tends to really stick to the hard to clean areas. We do not have a dish washer. Do you have any advice for a safe, effective way to clean them? Thanks!

Fussy Eater and Trouble Getting Baby to Sleep

My name is K. and I had my first child on 2/18. I breastfed for the first 2 1/2 weeks but it was to exhausting for me because she seemed to want to feed 24/7. We have switched to formula and noticed a lot of times when feeding her she gets really agitated and starts to cry. She will sometimes spit out the bottle and then cry because she wants it back. We have tried switching formulas thinking that it may be gas and sometimes it seems that it has helped but then she goes right back to this behavior. She also will get like this when...

7 Month Old Refuses to Eat from Bottle

I have a 7 month old daughter who will not eat from a bottle. I have been breastfeeding. Up until about 2 months ago, she would occasionally eat a bottle of pumped milk fed to her by her dad or grandma. Now, she absolutely refuses. I was gone all day yesterday, and she went without milk for 12 hours because she wouldn't eat from the bottle. We did start feeding her some solids in the past couple months, but I'm not sure that has anything to do with it. It seems like she forgot how to eat from the bottle. She will kind of chew the...
