Meaka - my plans are very similar to yours. I'm 10 weeks away from my due date and have decided to hold off buying bottles until I see how it goes (based on advice received on bellybelly and other sites). A friend in the US recommended Dr Brown's bottles. I would love to hear if anyone knows anything about them. Also, (for me) the bottles must be BPA-free and free of all that other "bad stuff". Usually, if they are, they advertise it as many people are concerned these days.
