Tested by mum Liz Sypko for the M&B Awards 2016:
Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
These Lansinoh NaturalWave Breastmilk Feeding Bottles are really sturdy and the teats are great for recreating a natural breast feeling so you can happily express or formula feed your baby with them still thinking it's the breast so you can mix up feeds. The build is very durable as easy to clean! The variety if sizes is good so that the bottles don't overwhelm your baby!
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
The measurements on the side of the NaturalWave Breastmilk Feeding Bottle are really clear so you know how much you are putting in and how much you're baby is drinking. The teats are easy to clean and bottles fit easily into baby bags. The sensation for the baby is great as makes them feel like breast so your baby won't be fussy over the bottle!
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
The bottles could look a little prettier as quite a plain design and sometimes the teat was fiddly to out back into place.

Why would you recommend this product to a friend/fellow mum?
My baby really got on well with these NaturalWave Breastmilk Feeding Bottles. He is exclusively breastfed and I used these when I wanted to give him some expressed milk - I was worried that he might not feed from it but after a few minutes he suddenly realised what to do and he had the whole bottle. I think the teat looks more like a nipple shape and I think it mimics the breast better than a lot of bottles.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
Finding a bottle that my baby will feed from is a real life saver because I was really worried I would not be able to transfer to bottle feeds after trying a few other brands. I thoroughly recommend these bottles.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
I really like these NaturalWave Breastmilk Feeding Bottles but I did find them quite big for the first weeks/months - it would be good to introduce another size which is slightly smaller and save the big ones for later. But this is a really minor point - in terms of how they work, I really like them.

These bags are so so easy to use. They stand up easy when filled which makes them easy to freeze in order and I used to leave mine flat to go in the freezer for easy storage. Easy to fill with milk hygienically without touching the inside of the bag so keeps bacteria out and keeps it sterile. They keep sealed and don't leak which is a miracle as previous bags have leaked and there is nothing more heartbreaking than seeing spilt breast milk! They are a great design very easy to use and open which saves faffing around.
How does this product make your life easier as a mum?
Easy to open means I don't have to have all hands tied up trying to open just. Simple milk bag makes life so much easier!! I can quickly express and fill a bag ready to freeze or cool, meaning I can do other things.
If you could change one thing about this product what would it be?
Possibly come with a marker pen to write on the milk bags.
