A baby bottle for use with or without a liner in a first embodiment has a container with a bellows shaped top portion with an open end, a body portion having a pair of spaced tubular handle forming members, and a bottom portion having a closed end. The bellows is compressible for removing air from the container when used without a liner or a liner when used. The body portions spaced tubular members having a size suitable for grasping by a baby\s hand form a centrally located bottle opening; the opening between the tubular members forms with the shape of the bottle bottom portion a guide for guiding a baby\s hands to the handles for self-feeding. The handles are in vertical alignment with the top and bottom portions to facilitate bottle cleaning and liner insertion. A disposable, bifurcated, resilient liner is provided with an insert means for inserting the liner\s bifurcated portions through the top portion to fit corresponding portions in the handles, and the bottom portion. In a second embodiment, the body portion tubular surface has opposing recesses for forming adjacent surfaces into handles sized to accommodate the hands of a baby for self-feeding. The handles together with the open space between the recesses form a single passage in open communication with the container\s top and bottom portions for facilitating cleaning and sterilization and insertion of a liner when used.

A liner for a baby bottle having an open top, a pair of spaced tubular members and a closed bottom comprising: a top portion and bifurcated body and bottom portions depending from the top portion, said top portion and bifurcated body portion having a shape corresponding to the shapes of the bottle top and pair of tubular members, and said bifurcated bottom portions having a combined shape corresponding to the shape of the bottle bottom. A baby bottle comprising: a container having an open top, a closed bottom, a plurality of tubular shaped handles interconnecting to the open top and closed bottom, said plurality of tubular shaped handles being in vertical alignment with the open top of said container for facilitating the cleaning of the bottle when used without a liner and for facilitating the insertion of a liner when used with a liner, and means forming a bellows type surface whereby when the bottle is used with or without a liner, the bottle is responsive to compression of the bellows type surface for air removal. A baby bottle comprising a container having top, body, and bottom portions, the top and bottom portions formed integrally with the body portion; said top portion including an open top and surface means forming a collapsible, self locking bellows adjacent to the top for removing air from the container; said body portion including a tubular surface corresponding to the surface means of the top portion, said tubular surface having first and second opposing recesses coacting with the adjacent portions of the tubular surface for forming first and second opposing handles of a size sufficient for grasping by an infant for self-feeding, said first and second opposing recesses and said first and second handles coacting with the first and second recesses for forming an open passage between the top and bottom portions of the container for providing ready access to the bottom portion for facilitating cleaning and sterilization during use with or without a liner and for facilitating liner insertion when used with a liner, and said bottom portion including a surface means having a bottom formed integrally therewith for closing the bottom portion of the container, whereby the container, or a liner inserted in the container may be filled with a desired amount of liquid, the top portion of the container collapsed to remove air from the container or liner above the liquid and at least one of the handles can be grasped by an infant for self-feeding.
