Philips AVENT new Natural Bottles

The gift package

The gift package

A few weeks before  the Philips AVENT launch we received this package from the organizers with the baby shower invitation. Upon unraveling  the package I was thrilled to see a selection of bottles which I could test  out with Tiger girl.

AVENT Comfort Bottles

AVENT Comfort Bottles

There has been changes in the design of the bottle since the last time I used it with the boys.  The bottle is lighter and more ergonomically friendly for the little hands. It is also BPA free.

The new Natural range  features a wide, breast-shaped teat promises high acceptance and an almost instant latch on, as well as preventing nipple and teat confusion when mothers switch between bottles and breastfeeding.

The new unique comfort petals and silicone teat with high flexibility and stretch, preventing teat collapse and a more natural and uninterrupted feed.

The new, advanced anti-colic Natural bottle not only prevents, leaks but also reduces colic. This makes the bottle  extremely useful for younger babies who may suffer from the discomforts related to colic.

My eldest, Monkey boy suffered from colic when he was a baby. It was one of the reasons why we chose to use AVENT bottles back then. It was a decision which I never regretted.

 

Having a colicky baby is something which added on the stress of being a new mother back then and luckily the discomforts he suffered were minimized through the use of AVENT bottles.

I love how the teats  in this new design are much softer and comfortable to suck on as compared to the old design. The parts of the bottle dismantle easily making cleaning it a breeze.

It would be good if they had even bigger sizes available for older kids like Tiger girl as I had to refill her milk bottle twice each time she uses it as the max capacity is only 260ml.

Tiger girl took to the new bottle instantly and has been asking to have her milk in it nightly. She is able to hold the bottle easily with her hands and the bottle doesn’t leak even though she tilts it while drinking. It is light enough for her to hold and finish up the milk. However she had some trouble removing the cap of the bottle by herself and needs assistance to get it off.

Tiger girl is certainly one happy girl as she loves her new milk bottle.

Ostrich, Goats and Rabbits at a Fruit Farm

 

 

Feeding the rabbit

Feeding the rabbit

During the March holiday we brought the kids to a Fruit farm in Desaru, Malaysia. There was a small  petting Zoo section with a limited selection of animals. It was the first time that the kids got to feed rabbits and goats. They were quite hesitant at first as the kids are not really into animals.  Doggie boy was quite frighten to feed the rabbit and had to be coaxed by R before he gave it a try.

I didn’t  manage to get a good shot of the kids feeding the goats. The baby ewes were let out of the pen for them to feed but they really scared the boys when they went near to feed. Both the boys ran when the baby goat went near them.  I guess if they encounter goats again in the future they would not be as fearful as the animal as they were that day.

We didn’t get to go the Ostrich farm there while on holidays at Desaru but the kids did manage to take a look at the Lone Ostrich that we spotted at this Fruit farm.  They took a glance of it and went off looking at the rabbits. I guess it wasn’t a bad decision not to visit the Ostrich farm during the trip.
