Double ended baby bottle
Bottles are one of the most important tools for parents. They’re a way to keep baby fed, and they allow you to get some peace and quiet for a few minutes while you focus on something else.
But did you know that there are actually quite a few different types of bottles? And did you know that the best bottle for your baby depends on what kind of feeding lifestyle you want to create? In this article, we’ll talk about four different types of baby bottles and how each one can help you achieve different goals.

The first type is the classic bottle—the one that looks like an upside-down teardrop with a nipple on top. This is what we’ve been using since our parents were babies, and it’s still the most popular option today. But there are also three other types: the straw bottle, which lets your baby drink from a straw; the sippy cup; and finally… the banana bottle!
Let’s go over each one in more detail so you can find out which one will work best for your family!
What is a banana bottle?
A banana bottle is a feeding bottle that has two ends. It’s great for babies who have trouble with switching from one side to the other, or for parents who want to be able to feed their baby from both sides at once. The bottle is designed to look like a banana, and it also has two handles for easy gripping. The nipple end has smaller holes than many other bottles, which makes it easier for your baby to drink from them.
What are the 4 types of feeding bottles?
1. The banana bottle is shaped like a banana, with a wider neck than regular baby bottles. It’s designed for babies who are breastfed but need supplementation.
2. The wide-necked bottle is designed for newborns and infants who are beginning to eat solid foods. It allows for easy cleaning and filling without spilling or messes!
3. The angled bottle has an angled nipple that makes it easier for babies to latch onto when breastfeeding or drinking from a bottle. This type of nipple helps prevent colic and gas in newborns who are still learning how to latch on properly.
4. The standard baby bottle looks like any other baby bottle—the only difference being that it holds more milk than others and has less air bubbles (which can reduce colic).
Did they have baby bottles in the 1800s?
In 1882, Dr. Kane invented “Kane’s improved feeding bottle,” which was made out of rubber and had a nipple shape similar to today’s version of baby bottles. These were widely used until plastic became popular in the 1950s.

What were baby bottles before plastic?
Before plastic was introduced into the market, glass bottles were used as baby bottles because they were easier to clean than metal containers; however, they were heavy and breakable so often shattered when dropped or mishandled by young children learning how to hold things.
Before plastic was introduced into the market, glass bottles were used as baby bottles because they were easier to clean than metal containers; however, they were heavy and breakable so often shattered when dropped or mishandled by young children learning how to hold things. After glass was replaced by plastic, the use of baby bottles boomed due to their light weight and sturdy material. It wasn’t until the 1990s when BPA (bisphenol A) became an issue that parents began questioning whether or not baby bottles were safe for their children.
