Customer Reviews

I have a 3-month-old daughter who would not take a bottle. I returned to work when she was 8 weeks old, and although she had taken a couple of bottles from her dad during the first eight weeks, she suddenly refused the bottle altogether when I was not around. Our caregiver tried different temperatures, and we tried all kinds of different bottles -- Avent, Playtex, Nuk. We were finally able to trick her into taking the First Years Breastflow bottle by giving it to her while she was sleeping. Our caregiver would wait until she fell asleep, then take her pacifier out of her mouth and replace it with the bottle. This worked ok with the Breastflow bottle, unless baby woke up. Then screaming ensued.
Enter the Yoomi bottle. I purchased this bottle after reading a blog article called Best Bottles for Breastfed Babies. I suspected that the temperature of the breastmilk was part of the reason baby would not take her bottle, and I also liked that the nipple design of the Yoomi bottle closely mimics the breast. It's definitely a pricier bottle, but consider that you are getting the bottle and the warmer. You can't buy a bottle warmer for under twenty dollars, so the Yoomi bottle plus warmer is really rather reasonable.
The Yoomi bottle has a honeycomb heating element that works almost magically. You simply place the heating element in boiling water for 25 minutes (I just put it in while I am sterilizing the bottle and my pump parts in the morning). The Yoomi warmer has a button that turns blue when the warmer is fully "charged." You then need to let the warmer cool for 75 minutes prior to using it. But when you are ready to use it, you just press the button and start feeding baby. As the milk passes over the warmer, the warmer heats the milk exactly to body temperature. Amazing!
I was still skeptical as to whether my picky baby would actually take this bottle, but she did! She drank the entire bottle (wide awake, no less) without incident. As any mom of a picky baby knows, this is such a relief for me. It's great to be able to go through my work day without worrying about whether baby is going to take her bottle or if she will be screaming for her caregiver all day. Thanks, Yoomi, for this amazing bottle! We love it!
UPDATE 12/19/2011
I forgot to mention previously that the Yoomi warmer has to be replaced after 100 uses or 3 months. Well, you will be lucky if it lasts 3 months. Mine gave out after not quite 2 months, and we only used it three times per week (once per day, three weekdays per week). I was pretty disappointed that it went out that quickly. It would cost me another $24.95, plus $9.99 shipping to order a new warmer. I can't really justify that to get maybe 10-15 uses out of it. So we're back on the hunt for another bottle our picky baby will accept. sigh

We love these bottles, we were very hesitant at first but then realized our baby did great so we bought a bunch. We only have one warmer we use for outings, but the bottles we use all the time. Buy from the yoomi website though, they are super fast and way cheaper since you can get bundles with them. I'm a little disappointed that they're more expensive on amazon.
