The Philips Avent Natural Baby Bottle Newborn Gift Set (SCD838/02) is an ideal starter for new parents. Its innovative Natural Response Nipple allows baby to control milk flow, mimicking breastfeeding by releasing milk only when baby actively drinks. This supports baby's natural drinking rhythm, making it easier to combine breast and bottle feeding. The set includes various bottle sizes, multiple nipple flow rates to grow with your baby, Soothie pacifiers trusted by medical professionals, sealing discs for storage, and a specialized cleaning brush. A comprehensive solution for early feeding needs, perfect as a baby shower gift.

  • Includes:
  • 3 x 4oz Natural bottles with Natural Response Nipples (Flow 2)
  • 2 x 9oz Natural bottles with Natural Response Nipples (Flow 3)
  • 1 x Natural Response Nipple, Flow 1
  • 1 x Natural Response Nipple, Flow 4
  • 7 x Sealing discs (for milk storage)

  • 1 x Bottle brush (curved head, molded tip)
  • Bottle Material: Polypropylene (BPA-free)
  • Nipple Type: Natural Response Nipple (Flows 1-5 available; set includes 1, 2, 3, 4)
  • Compatibility: Works with all nipples and caps from the Philips Avent Natural line.
  • Model: SCD838/02

Advantages:

  • Mimics Breastfeeding: The Natural Response Nipple allows baby to control milk pace and only releases milk when actively drinking, supporting a natural suck-swallow-breathe rhythm.
  • Easy Combination Feeding: The wide, soft, breast-shaped nipple design facilitates an easy transition between breast and bottle.
  • Grows with Baby: Includes a range of nipple flow rates (1, 2, 3, and 4) to adapt to your baby's developing feeding needs.
  • Comprehensive Set: Provides essential items for new parents, including multiple bottle sizes, replacement nipples, pacifiers, cleaning brush, and storage solutions.
  • Trusted Soothing: Soothie pacifiers are made from hospital-grade silicone and are used by medical professionals to calm newborns.
  • Convenient Cleaning & Storage: The specially designed bottle brush aids thorough cleaning, and sealing discs convert bottles into storage containers.

Our Recommendations:
This set is highly recommended for new parents looking for a complete bottle-feeding starter kit, especially if planning to combine breast and bottle feeding. It's an excellent baby shower gift. Be patient when introducing the Natural Response Nipple, as your baby may take 2-3 tries to get used to the unique flow. Observe your baby's feeding cues to determine the appropriate nipple flow rate rather than relying solely on age.

 

 

Conclusion:
The Philips Avent Natural Baby Bottle Newborn Gift Set (SCD838/02) is a well-thought-out, comprehensive solution for new parents. Its key feature, the Natural Response Nipple, brilliantly supports a baby-led, breast-like feeding experience, easing transitions and promoting natural rhythms. While there might be a short adjustment period for the baby, the overall convenience, quality, and range of included items make this set an excellent investment for a smooth start to bottle feeding.

    My 1 week old daughter seems to really like them
    I spent a few hours trying to find bottles/ nipples with a very slow flow, because my newborn daughter kept choking with the ones we already had. These bottles are the ones that kept coming up.Pros:1. They let her pause to breathe for a moment without me having to take the bottle from her, which was making her upset when I was using the other bottles.2. The slower flow seems to make her much less gassy, presumably because she’s not swallowing as much air trying to keep up with the flow.3. She has to work for it more than she does with bottles with a faster flow, which is good because my wife is breastfeeding (I am the only one using the bottles, to let my wife get some sleep without having to wake her up to feed the baby every hour or so) and the bottles with a faster flow can make babies “lazy” and therefore lose interest in latching on to nurse.(Potential) cons:1. Feeding time takes significantly longer as a result of the slower flow. I don’t really mind this because I am completely obsessed with our sweet little bundle of joy, but I can see it being inconvenient for late-night feedings, if you’re in a rush, or if you have to mix medicine into your baby’s breast milk/ formula and make sure they actually finish drinking it all.2. They were a bit more expensive than the ones we had on our registry, so if you don’t have a specific reason for getting them like we did, it may not be worth the premium you’re paying for themOverall this is a great product. I haven’t had any problems with leaking or manufacturing defects like some of the other reviews mentioned. They make feeding time much less stressful because I no longer need to be so hyper-vigilant to keep her from choking, which is awesome when you’re exhausted with a newborn.I don’t leave reviews very often, but this product has most definitely earned one, for all the right reasons.10/10. Thank you, Philips, for making such an excellent product.

    Love these enough to give as a gift. I think these are the perfect combo for new born babies. They have a variety of bottles and nipples so they last a good six-seven months. I ended up using mine after month 3 so it lasted more than 6 month. The bottle size is great and the quality of the nipple is literally UNMATCHED.
