I have these and the baby either sucks them flat, or they leak between the bottle and the collar? Is there a fix for this?

No. Wierd enough, Medela, the breastmilk-pumps specialists are selling horrible nipples.Either move to Calma which fits the Medela bottle, and is actually one of the best, if not the best, nipple available for breastmilk bottle-feeding.Or, switch to another bottle and nipple (you'll have to pass the milk from the pump's bottle to the other).I used the second solution, and moved to MAM's bottles and nipples. Didn't regret that decision.

Make sure that the nipple is sitting correctly in the ring cap. We have seen situatio s where we pull the nipple to much into the ring cap and it leaves a gap for the liquid to leak.

If your baby is sucking them flat, it may be time to go up a size i.e from slow (small) to medium

These were the worst nipples for that problem for us as well... I finally just switched to dr brown's nipples with the venting system (you can use on almost any regular sized bottle opening... For example we use evenflo glass bottles)...

I use the enfamil slow flow nipples that come in a box of 12 individually wrapped. I haven't had any problems with them leaking. The only thing is my baby has to let go of the nipple so the air can flow to open the nipple back up from her sucking, and they don't come with bottle tops. I like cover the nipple part it's just out in the open. But you get 12 nipples for 12 bottles that's why I got them. Hope that helps a little.

Hi Kate - well it seems that only us purchasers will accept that this product has a problem with the leaking - krups it seems don't - I've emailed them. I am now about to send my THIRD Circolo back (purchased this time through Co-op online just to make sure it was not a 'faulty batch' that Amazon had in stock. Seems that it was not. Anyhows, going to chose another style now - don't want to because I love the modern style of the Circolo but it seems to me that until Krups acknowledge that there is a problem they won't actually sort it out!

I am not sure yet, but mine also have a leak after using them a few times. I may try the vinyl patch.

I have 4 of these bottles and I have trouble with one of my lids - it goes on crooked and leaks. :(

I use a combination of baking soda and water to clean the bottle. I just let them sit for a while and that usually does the trick. I hear vinegar works too.

I have not used the Tommee bottles, but I can say that my little one (2 months) has only spit up two or three times with the Lansinoh bottle. He had a problem with gas early on but it was related to the formula I was supplementing with as well as immature GI system. This is the only bottle I have used for him and he does well switching bw bottle and breast. Its an odd shape but works well.

It is not normal for the bottle to leak at all. Sometimes water can get trapped in the threads and get squeezed out when the lid is tightened. Make sure its not just that residual water from the threads and then return it.

We try to always keep them upright, but we have never had issues with them leaking when on their side. I'm not sure if that goes for when they are on their side for an extended period of time

Try unscrewing it and make sure it's not clogged, I've not had this problem, so I hope this works for you. My daughter loves this stuff.

did not use the bottles as yet, but i have bought before and i have never had this problem, may be you can try pouring in some hot water and left for a minuit or two then wash the bottles.

I have certainly had many leaks, but I have blamed them on myself not the product. If you make sure to close them, they stay closed-they will not open on their own.Best bottles I've ever owned.

yes the pumps are faulty and I am not sure but it seems the bottle leaks somewhere causing a mess around the bottle.

Yes, seems like yours may be defective. :( I've had no problems with leaking. In fact, if anything it's tight on her head.

I had the same issue with some, while others from the same package will lie perfectly flat. I ended up just using them as burp cloths and using a different cloth diapering system.

Where are they leaking from? Are the pumps cracked somewhere? Make sure everything is screwed together tightly and the pump is on the bottle tightly as well. Also make sure you are making complete pumps, all the way down and the pump comes back up. You may want to clean them by pumping hot water through them a few times. I've had mine for over 6 months with no problems. Good luck.
