KiindeBreast Milk Storage Twist Starter Kit

I waited for this product for two weeks.. so excited for this promised "game changer".. well it is. Is makes pumping life easier BUT it is not safe for the babies.. my milk was taking a blue color from the pouch and i had to throw a big quantity of precious expressed milk. So disappointed.

Viene con muchos adaptadores y le quedó al del extractor que tenia, ademas las mamilas son de muy buena calidad y es muy ligero.

There is a longer review following but the short version is this: I love it. My husband loves it.I saw this and thought it looked neat but was a bit worried because no one I knew had tried it and I had seen some negative reviews on here. I was also worried because they don't have a nuk adapter as far as I know and lately that is all my daughter would take. She also has bad problems with gas and had pretty bad colic. For reference, we had tried Dr.Browns, Playtex nurser drop-ins, nuk,avent, tommy tippee and I believe one or two other types although the names escape me at the moment. I had written and asked for feedback on a breastfeeding group I'm a part of and two ladies said they loved it, one said she even credited it with fixing her daughter's nursing problems and getting her to no longer need a shield. I thought that sounded a bit too good to be true but decided to try it.Honestly, I love this system and so does my husband. It's much faster for me, I don't have to wash a million bottles and I don't lose any milk transferring from bottles to freezer bags or from my medela bottles to nuk bottles etc. My husband loves it because it's two parts not three or more to sanitize and if the milk needs to be warmed it only takes 5 seconds or less to have a bottle ready (from the fridge, frozen takes a bit longer but still isn't too bad.) I was worried it would take my daughter a bit to adjust to the nipple (she's VERY picky and doesn't tend to like bottles period) but she took to it immediately and had zero issues. Also, from the other bottles she had started to be a bit rougher when breastfeeding but after switching to these it was much better. It is easy to squeeze any air out of the bottles and my daughter rarely gets gas now and it is much less even on the rare occasion she does. Also I have not had any leaks whatsoever and find the screw on top to be much easier. I never have to worry about the ziploc type seals and if it sealed all the way and I haven't had any bags leak upon thawing.I know some people had mentioned problems with the nipples and adapters. I haven't had any problems with the nipples so far and we've been using them about a month or so. ( I heard they had fixed those issues) . I didn't have any problems with lack of suction with the adapters for the first several days, but after that I did have that happen twice. I was able to fix it by loosening the bag but didn't like that. I wrote kiinde and they told me they were aware of the problem, apologized and send me out two new slightly longer adapters free of charge that arrived in two days. Excellent customer service. Before those arrived I did realize the problem was actually due to my membrane/yellow thing not being pushed completely on which was causing it to rub against the adapter and lose suction. I found if I pushed it on completely it wasn't an issue however with the new adapters I don't have to worry about it at all.

Absolutely love this pump!! It’s amazing for all the working mamas out there to just store and go!

Satisfecha con mi compra...

This kit comes with everything you need to get started. The $99 "gift set" includes the same pieces as this kit, but also includes the bottle warmer. Since the warmer is $70, you'll save $10 if you decide you want it. However, the bags are thin enough that you can warm them under the tap in 2 minutes if they're refrigerated, and 5 minutes if they're frozen. I decided it wasn't worth it and went with this instead.I got this kit when I was debating whether or not the Kiinde system is worth the premium price for the bags. The convenience factor for an exclusive pumper like myself is high enough to really make the cost worth it, IMO. However, if you like the system, but are worried about the bag price, you can always clean them out 2-3 times and then you're sixes with lower-cost, lower-quality bags. (I see no difference between cleaning these a few times and cleaning a bottle.) The Kiinde bags are very high quality. The plastic is thick and resilient; the caps have never leaked on us.The real winner here is the nipples, though. I went to pumping because my son was such a poor nurser (bad latch, falls asleep, etc.) and these nipples have actually taught him how to latch properly. They do not reward laziness. They don't drip or leak, and they won't flood your baby's mouth with milk. Basically, they're very much like the breast. Some reviewers have said that their babies don't like these compared with other nipples, and I understand why. They take work! But if you want your child to be able to transition between the breast and bottle seamlessly, these are the bottles for you. I say I'm an exclusive pumper, but sometimes I choose to nurse to comfort my son, or if I'm in a pinch and don't have pumped milk with me. He now does so much better at the breast, and I know it's because of the Kiinde nipples. Your baby will also appreciate how easily you can squeeze out all the air before attaching the nipple. He'll have very little gas after feeding. Burping is a one-and-done affair. :)Overall, I would highly recommend this kit to anyone who is interested in giving this system a shot. It's an affordable way to get started and find out if this will work for you. My guess is that it will!
