The MAM Colours of Nature Anti Colic Self Sterilising Bottle is designed for parents seeking an effective solution to reduce colic and simplify bottle preparation. Its key benefit lies in its advanced anti-colic ventilation system and convenient self-sterilising feature, allowing for quick microwave sterilization. While it offers a medium-flow teat suitable for growing babies, parents of newborns might need to purchase a slower flow teat separately. This 2-pack of 260ml bottles provides a practical, safe, and comfortable feeding experience for your baby, featuring a SkinSoft silicone teat and BPA/BPS-free materials.
Anti-Colic Vented Base: Specifically engineered to reduce air bubbles in the feed, helping to minimize colic symptoms like discomfort and regurgitation for relaxed feeding.
Self-Sterilising Function: Unique design allows for quick and easy sterilization in a microwave in just three minutes, making it ideal for on-the-go use and busy parents.
SkinSoft Silicone Teat: Mimics the soft feel of skin, providing a natural and comfortable latch that is easily accepted by babies.
Medium-Flow Teat (Size 2): Included with the bottles, this teat is suitable for babies who are growing and have a larger appetite, ensuring efficient feeding.
BPS/BPA-Free Materials: Made from high-quality, safe plastics that are free from harmful substances, ensuring your baby's health and safety during every feed.
260ml Capacity (2-Pack): Each bottle holds 260ml, providing ample volume for feeds, and the convenient two-pack offers a spare bottle or multiple options for daily use.
Easy to Clean and Assemble: Features wide openings and fewer parts, simplifying the cleaning process and making assembly straightforward after sterilization.
Reduces Colic: The vented base significantly helps to reduce air intake, leading to less colic and greater comfort for your baby.
Exceptional Convenience: Self-sterilising in the microwave saves time and eliminates the need for a separate steriliser, perfect for travel or quick preparation.
Natural Feel Teat: The SkinSoft silicone teat is highly accepted by babies due to its resemblance to skin, promoting an easy transition between breast and bottle.
Safe and Durable: Constructed from BPS/BPA-free materials that are both safe for infants and designed for daily, long-term use.
Simple Maintenance: Easy to disassemble and clean, ensuring hygiene and prolonging product life.
Cost-Effective 2-Pack: Provides excellent value with two essential bottles for daily feeding routines.
Fixed Teat Flow: Comes only with medium-flow teats, which may be too fast for very young newborns or premature babies, potentially requiring a separate purchase of slow-flow teats.
Capacity Size: While 260ml is great for older infants, it might be larger than necessary for very small or young babies, potentially leading to wasted formula if not measured carefully.
Reduces Colic: The vented base significantly helps to reduce air intake, leading to less colic and greater comfort for your baby.

The MAM Colours of Nature Anti Colic Bottle is engineered for effective and comfortable feeding experiences. Its standout feature, the anti-colic vented base, actively reduces the ingestion of air. This results in fewer air bubbles in the milk and subsequently less gas, burping, and discomfort for your baby, leading to more relaxed feeds, especially for infants prone to colic. Parents often report a noticeable difference in their baby's post-feed comfort.
The self-sterilising function is a game-changer for busy parents. Instead of needing a bulky steriliser, you can simply add 20ml of water to the base, place the bottle components inside, and heat it in a microwave for three minutes. This convenience is particularly valuable for nighttime feeds, travel, or when you need a sterile bottle quickly. It ensures hygienic feeding without extra equipment.
The SkinSoft silicone teat is designed for high acceptance, mimicking the mother's nipple. This makes it easier for babies to latch on naturally and transition between breast and bottle feeding, supporting a combination feeding approach if desired. The included medium-flow teat ensures a steady and appropriate flow for growing babies with larger appetites.
In daily use, the bottles are robust and user-friendly. Their wide neck makes them simple to fill and clean manually, and the clearly marked measurements ensure accurate feed preparation. The BPS/BPA-free construction provides peace of mind, ensuring that no harmful chemicals leach into your baby's milk.
Disassemble: Before first use, fully disassemble the bottle into its five parts: teat, screw ring, bottle body, vented base, and base valve.
Clean: Wash all components thoroughly with warm soapy water and rinse well. Use a bottle brush for effective cleaning.
Sterilise: For initial sterilisation, use the self-sterilising function (see below) or another preferred method (e.g., boiling, steam steriliser).
Assemble: Ensure all parts are completely dry. Place the base valve into the vented base, then screw the vented base tightly onto the bottle body. Insert the teat into the screw ring and screw this assembly onto the bottle body. Ensure all parts are securely fastened to prevent leaks.
Teats: The MAM Colours of Nature bottles are compatible with all MAM teats of different flow rates (e.g., slow, fast, cross-cut) should you need to adjust for your baby's feeding pace. Teats are easily interchangeable.
Sterilisation: While designed for self-sterilisation, these bottles are also compatible with standard steam sterilisers (electric or microwave) and boiling methods.
Cleaning: Always disassemble and clean the bottle immediately after each use. Use warm, soapy water and a bottle brush to remove all milk residue. Rinse thoroughly.
Self-Sterilising Method (Microwave):
Place the base of the bottle in the microwave-safe tray (often the bottle cap can serve this purpose).
Add exactly 20ml of water to the base.
Place the teat, screw ring, and bottle body (upside down) onto the base.
Place the bottle cap loosely over the top.
Microwave for 3 minutes (for 500-1000W microwaves). Adjust time for higher wattage. Check manufacturer instructions for specific wattage.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before handling. Pour away any remaining water.
Storage: Store cleaned and sterilised bottles in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat.
Teat Inspection: Regularly inspect teats for signs of wear, tear, or damage. Replace them immediately if any damage is visible to ensure safety and hygiene. MAM recommends replacing teats every 1-2 months for hygiene reasons.
