Question 1

How do I clean and sterilize the MAM Easy Start Anti‑Colic bottle?

Accepted Answer

Wash all parts (bottle, nipple, and base insert) in hot soapy water or the top rack of the dishwasher, then use the bottle’s self‑sterilising method by filling the bottle with 20 ml (about 1 fl oz) of water and heating it in the microwave for the recommended time (typically 3 minutes at 500–1000 W); let it cool before removing parts and assembling[3][1].

Question 2

Can I put the MAM Easy Start Anti‑Colic nipple in the dishwasher or sterilizer?

Accepted Answer

Yes — MAM recommends washing the nipple either by hand in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher (top rack). The nipples are also compatible with common sterilisation methods, and the bottle’s self‑sterilising microwave procedure is supported by MAM instructions[1][3].

Question 3

What nipple size/flow should I use and how do I choose between sizes?

Accepted Answer

Choose the nipple flow based on your baby’s age and feeding cues: start with the newborn/slow flow for newborns and breastfed babies, then move to medium or fast flow when baby shows signs of slow drinking or milk dribbling; MAM offers different flow nipples and recommends switching when feeding becomes prolonged or baby pulls at the nipple[3].

Question 4

Are MAM Easy Start nipples compatible with other bottle brands?

Accepted Answer

MAM nipples are designed specifically for MAM bottles and may not reliably fit or seal with other brands; many parents report fit and leakage issues when mixing parts, so MAM recommends using original MAM nipples and bottles together for correct anti‑colic function[3].

Question 5

What materials are the MAM Easy Start Anti‑Colic bottle and nipple made from, and are they BPA‑free?

Accepted Answer

MAM Easy Start bottles and nipples are made from baby‑grade materials and are marketed as BPA‑free; product pages specify they are manufactured to safety standards for infant feeding products (check the specific model page for exact material details such as polypropylene or silicone nipple)[3].

Question 6

Can I warm MAM Easy Start Anti‑Colic bottles in a bottle warmer or on the stove?

Accepted Answer

Yes — you can warm the bottle using a bottle warmer, warm water bath, or microwave (for sterilisation steps only); however, when using a microwave to heat milk directly in the bottle be cautious of uneven heating and always test the milk temperature before feeding[1][3].

Question 7

How do I maintain the anti‑colic valve and will cleaning affect its performance?

Accepted Answer

Disassemble and clean the valve and base insert thoroughly after each use to remove milk residue; ensure all parts are fully dry and reassemble correctly because blockages or incorrect assembly can reduce the anti‑colic effect—MAM’s instructions include step‑by‑step cleaning and reassembly guidance[1][3].
