Quick question - are the angled bottles actually better or is that marketing? We're combination feeding and I want to make sure we're not doing anything that could cause issues.
Angled bottles cut down on ear infections for us. Our pediatrician actually recommended them specifically for that reason. Combination feeding parent here too and it made a real difference in the first few months.
Skip the angled bottles. Get some good bottle brushes and call it a day. The regular ones work just fine and you'll save like thirty bucks.
The angle is supposed to help prevent them from sucking in too much air while eating. Whether that actually matters depends on your kid honestly. Some babies don't care either way.
Combination feeding here too and we just went with whatever was on sale. Kids drank from both regular and angled bottles without complaining. Marketing definitely plays a big role in making you think you need the fancy ones.

We used the angled bottles with our first and honestly there wasn't a huge difference compared to regular ones. The angled bottles were kind of a pain to clean though with all the weird corners in there.
