The moment your baby is born, a lot of things start running in your mind regarding what is best for your little angel. The most immediate areas of concern for a baby are food and sleep. However, a well-fed baby is bound to sleep well. Not only that, since a baby’s immunity is still developing, they are prone to infections if not fed in a hygienic manner. Although breastfeeding is preferable, some women are unable to breastfeed due to various medical issues. Eventually, bottle-feeding becomes their last resort. Due to this, they take a lot of precautions while choosing feeding bottles. Either way, a feeding bottle is bound to come into the picture not only for exclusive feeding but also to store breast milk.
