Im going to boil the bottle niples, but should I boil the binkis as well? FTM

I did with my first 2.

@bubblebeck, okay. so im guessing they didnt melt then lol. thanks. :)

lol, nope. Your welcome!

I didn't use the ones with the hard plastic backs though. I used another kind...I cant think of the name, it's been almost 7 years since my last baby

@bubblebeck, the green all rubber ones?

Yes...these ones.

the plastic ones will melt lol maybe I over boiled them but they melted on me :(

not the ones on the pic those you can

@bubblebeck, I have a couple of thoes. im just going to try my best to boil the nipples of the ones with the plastic vacks abd try to not let the plastic melt. lol I can always get a new pack if need be, or stick to the green ones.

@bets, dang it! lol a work in progress then!!

yupp, just don't put the stove too high or for too long. maybe I was the dumb one lol

My mom and I boiled my sons pacifier in water with vanilla extract so it has a little bit of a taste to it 😊 it's a trick she did when I was a baby!

lol my mom told me to boil thrm, and I was like wont they melt and shes like idk, anf shes had four kids lol @bets maybe ill dip them ib the water usuing thoes tong things. or are they caleed thongs. who knows.

@jaxxons_momma1997, oh that sounds cool! ill have to try it!

hahah honestly I always confuse those two words. whatever lets call them "thongs" lol yes do that. or just keen an eye on them the whole time

@bekka1071, definitely! It makes them smell and taste better for baby that way they don't spit it out as much(:

@jaxxons_momma1997, that actually makes a lot of sense thanks for the tip!!!

@bets, I get confused so I call them the things. everyone knows what im talking about but thongs it is!! lol

how much extract did you use? @jaxxons_momma1997

@bsummers, depends on how many pacifiers you are going to do, I'm going to do more in other flavors, so normally about a cup or so of water (depending) with a few tablespoons of whatever flavor extract you want per pacifier (: @bekka1071 also so you guys know, my mom also used peppermint extract when I was a baby to help ease my stomach if I wasn't feeling good!

@jaxxons_momma1997, awesome!! keeps the tips coming lol, I can use all I can get! these ones are good tips too!!

Lol @bekka1071 my mom also used to put a little bit of baby cereal in a warm bottle to thicken it some so it would coat my stomach and I would stay full longer and would sleep through the night! She would give me a bath do a bottle and then swaddle me before she'd lay me down and I was sleeping through the night!

im doing it lol. I dont know if it will work for my son but im doing it. @jaxxons_momma1997

@bekka1071, it's worth a shot, every baby is different but it don't hurt to try ☺️

exactly. there's no harm in trying. if not ill never know! loo @jaxxons_momma1997

Those are awesome tips! lol would you girls be boiling them after every wash? Or how often with the vanilla extract? @jaxxons_momma1997 @bekka1071

Just once for a few months and then later after so many washes you can probably go ahead and do it again! I would use the same flavor on the same one though just to keep them tasting okay for the little one(: @floress_j

Yea true. Wont the washing them get rid of the taste tho? @jaxxons_momma1997

@floress_j, id boil them in water first to kill all germs, and then go with the vanilla, just to be safe, but you could do eother or. I mean boiled water with kill the germs anyways.

Okay.. thank you :) @bekka1071

@floress_j, I just washed it in hot soapy water and rinsed it before I boiled it

Thanks :) @jaxxons_momma1997

no problem, @floress_j good luck!!
