I purchased this doll for my daughter for Christmas because she had to have it. I was very disappointed when my daughter opened this doll and played with it. She immediately threw it to the side and said "I don't like this baby! It's too hard to make it work!" and of course, in my mind, I am thinking, there goes another $40.00 down the drain. Not only was it hard to feed the doll her bottle and food, but when she feeds it a bottle, water flows from the dolls neck. Also for a child to get this doll to go to the potty has to be the most difficult thing I have ever seen. It actually took a man to force the poop out of this doll! What a joke! My advice is to save your $40.00. We also purchased Baby Chou Chou and feel that she was a better purchase for $40.00.
