    maddening isnt it.
    i think i have seen a few people commenting on here abouot leaky advent bottles.. i have certainley found then to leak.
    i use those slim winnie the pooh bottles that boots do, they come in a 3 pack. i used them with my last child 2 (not exactly the same bottles obviously) and i have never had a problem with them.

    I had this happen today and my babg was soaked through and LO had no milk left!! i wanted to scrrrrreeeeammmmmm!

    Having said that, i use tommee tippee bottles (the closer to nature ones) and if u r careful to screw the tops on properly i find they do not leak during the feed, just dont do what i did and notscrew the tops on properly and check its securley on b4 u leave the house. (i left in a bit of a rush this morning!! regretted it later lol!)

    I find that the avent bottles leak unless I do them up really tightly. I only have one leaky one at the moment and so I'm just putting up with it.

    I use avent bottles and have never had a problem with them leaking. Hope you get sorted soon curlyclaire. x

    Hello, I have the same proplem with avent bottles I make sure the rim is dry and then make sure the top is on really tight, that seems to solve the problem xx

    for avent bottles, make sure the teat is really pulled up inside the screw on bit - then screw this onto the bottle quite tightly to get a good seal. If it stills leaks after that, then its shit & should be chucked!. lol

    Same her, the tt and also nuk seem to leak. I thought it was the teats, but end up buying new ones every two weeks and this doesn't always help.

    I know it's so annoying especially when you end up forking out so much money to try new bottles & teats, not exactly reasonably prced for Avent bottles etc.

    We had exact same problem we now have to really screw tops on tight and sometimes they still leak and we end up undoing them & tightening up a few times before we finally get it right!! Not a good thing when you're baby is hungry
