Need help with bottles, nipple size etc..

I am EBf but am buying a pump and intend to try DS with a bottle of pumped breast milk from time to time. I have never used bottles, nipples etc so have no clue what I should be buying.

I have heard that Dr. Browns are good?

How many bottles will I need if only going to use them from time to time? would two be enough?

Should I buy plastic or glass?

What size nipple?

Sorry for all the questions but I am clueless when it comes to pumping and feeding from a bottle.

TIA

Re: Need help with bottles, nipple size etc..

I exclusively pumped and used Dr Brown bottles but if you are going to EBF and occassionally use a bottle you may want to use one of those special bottles where the nipple is shaped more like the breast because the transition may not always be easy.

The BTDT moms here can give better info.

Re: Need help with bottles, nipple size etc..

i only pumped, i actually used avent bottled because they matched the pump... as for nipple size, i was never able to go beyond the #2 because bm is alot thinner then formula...

Re: Need help with bottles, nipple size etc..

Thanks...so how do the nipples work?

#1 flows faster or slower?

I am thinking about buying a medela harmony pump and the dr browns are supposed to fit in those. Can I freeze the bottle? or should I use bags?

This is all SOOOOOOOO confusing to me..I feel like a first time mom.
