Wondering What Kind of Bottles to Buy

I am planning on breastfeeding, but I work, and will also have to use bottles. I am wondering what kind are the best. I know I want BPA free, but I'm not sure what's best with the pump and all of that. I'm going to be a new mom in February.

If you are a mom with a kid with SPD, is there hope it gets better over the years? Any advice?

Close to Wylie, Murphy, Plano, Allen. Would be a plus, but not a necessity if they had privileges at Plano Medical Center. Is available and actually explains things in simple terms. (Other words, not one that comes in for thirty seconds and says take this or do this and call if anything changes and then takes off out the door.) One that does not get in a...
