can these bottles be connected directly to the breast pump, so i can pump into the bottle?

Yes. The adapter fits these bottles as well. I used these more frequently than the 2.5 oz slender bottles that came with the Medela pump kit / accessories.

Yes, you can use these. They are of a similar mould of the containers that come with the pump originally.

The connection is female threaded, meant to attach to the bottles. I dont know if you can set up an adapter for it or not.

No it's not, but BF makes an adapter so you can pump right into these bottles:http://www.amazon.com/Born-Free-BPA-Free-Breast-Adapter/dp/B00EOML6W6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1415717772&sr;=8-1&keyw;ords=born+free+adapter

If you have a liner over the threads of the bottle it could be hard to twist it to the connector. I always pumped into the bottle then transferred to breastmilk bags and just washed the bottle or put the empty bottle in the fridge until the next pump session.

I don't think so, I use the medela milk storage bags instead since they occupy less space (I have a small freezer), and easier to thraw so I can continue to use the bottles for pumping and feeding purposes.

You can pump directly into plastic Avent bottles. Not sure about the glass ones though.

They would be a bit heavy to attach to medela pump. Especially if you wear any hands free holding bra, it would pull the whole thing down. I pump with my medela and then just transfer the milk. I know it's two more parts to wash, but it is ok.

As far as I know you can not pump into them directly. I don't see how you could. The top is just two rows of ziplocks. I just pumped into the bottles that came with my pump and poured them into a bag.

Yes, I had nipples from other companies ( e.g. Born) that could easily attach to this bottle's top. You might have to replace the top part after while if your baby will be tossing the bottle out of crib as our child did.

No. They are too wide to attach to that pump. Not sure about other pumps as I have always used a Medela Pump in Stye Advanced. I just transfer the milk from th Medela bottles, to these, once I get home.

Yes, have used them with my Medela pump in style for a year! No problems with them being too heavy, though I do use a hands free pumping bra. And I also use the medela caps because the caps the bottles come with are for the nipples, so its nice to have flat caps for transporting.

I have screwed the bottles onto my Medela Pump in Style and it has worked just fine. I used the regular pump in style.

Hello nerdy mom :-) Yes, I have the Medela Pump in Style Advanced, and I pump directly into the bottle.

with an adapter, these can be used with the medela pump. medela bottles themselves, though, do not use liners. Also, I think these would be too wide to use with the medela bottles.

Never tried that. I use the breastmilk storage bags and medela bottles for that. Good idea though and probably would work. I would check with the manufacturer
