Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew of a breast pump that works with the similac bottles?
I am not sure that the pump bottles are transferable. they usually come with their own bottles for you to pump into. I tried to use a doc brown bottle with mine once and the suction wasn't right so i had to use the bottle that came with the pump and then transfer the milk to my bottle of choice. As far as being able to pump directly into a similac bottle is concerned i'm not sure that is entirely possible. I only say this because all of the pumps i have seen only have a small mouth opening and similac bottles have a wide opening so they wouldn't really match up. There may be a pump i haven't heard of though. Now as far as pump quality is concerned everyone has their own opinion. There are a couple of threads on this site dedicated to pumps and what people love or dislike about them. Here is a link for you to look at.

I'm not really aware of any pumps that work with Similac bottles. Most pumps make their bottle openings to fit their own brand of pumping bottle. If I hear of anything that works, I'll let you know for sure!
Looks like Brinny did an awesome job with this question. If you need more help let us know!
