Speaking about the difficulty of cleaning the Medela calma nipple, what 
about trying to clean the Dr. Brown one?  The design looks like 
something out of the 17th centrury and the milk comes out the same, with 
and without, the internal glass bulb and pipette.  We have a 
breastfeeding clinic in Vancouver, funded by the government, where the 
doctor who runs the clinic, pushes the  the Dr. Brown bottle on all her 
clients and often tells the moms, "it is my way or the highway".   Guess 
there is a good kickback for selling it.  Same doctor tells mother there 
is no such thing as nipple confusion.

I feel sorry for the poor mama's trying to breastfeed (not to mention 
their vulnerable babies).
