Dr. Brown's bottle features a patented two-piece internal vent system that works unlike any other bottle design. The vent system fully vents our bottle for vacuum-free feeding, which we call positive-pressure flow, similar to breastfeeding. As the baby feeds, air is channeled from the nipple collar through the vent system, bypassing the breastmilk or formula, to the back of the bottle. Air never mixes with the breastmilk or formula which minimizes oxidation and helps maintain essential nutrients like vitamins C, A and E.Babies feed more comfortably because the vent system allows them to nurse without fighting the negative effects of a vacuum or the discomfort of ingesting air bubbles. This helps to reduce feeding problems like colic, spit-up, burping, and gas. The breastmilk or formula flows freely, without nipple collapse.

Furniture Delivery
Most furniture items require freight shipping due to their size. Freight shipping incurs a separate oversize fee and is not included in our free shipping offer.
Someone must be present to accept delivery of furniture shipments at the scheduled time. If you miss your scheduled appointment, you may be responsible for any redelivery fees.
Furniture deliveries are curbside only so make sure someone is able to lend a hand bringing those items inside.
Furniture Delivery and Damage Inspection
Inspect your furniture upon delivery. While the carrier is still present, thoroughly examine the packaging and furniture for any damages.
Do not refuse the shipment due to damage, as this voids your insurance/warranty.
Report damaged items immediately.
If the carrier is still there: Note the damage on the delivery receipt
If the carrier has left: Contact the carrier directly within 48 hours to report the situation.
File a damage claim with Ideal Baby & Kids.
Within 48 hours of delivery, report the damage to Ideal Baby & Kids at help@idealbaby.com.
Include the following information in your email:
Order number
Description of the packaging condition (opened, sealed, damaged, etc.)

Retain all packaging and furniture pieces.
Do not discard any shipping boxes, packaging materials, or damaged furniture pieces. The carrier may need these for inspection and potential return. Missing pieces or packaging can void your insurance claim.

By following these steps, you'll ensure a smooth resolution for any damaged furniture you receive.
