Difference between Options and Options+

Parents love Dr. Brown’s bottles because of the internal vent system that helps reduce colic, spit-up, burping, and gas, among many other benefits. But parents also love to have Options. So, a few years ago, we made the Dr. Brown’s Natural Flow® Options™ Bottle that gave parents the choice to remove the internal vent system when their baby’s feeding develops.

Then, we made Options even better. In 2019, we introduced Options+ for both our Narrow and Wide-Neck bottles.

Here’s what changed:

  • Enhanced internal vent system
  • New breast-like Wide-Neck nipple
  • Improved collar and cap
