Okay, another question!! Sorry, first time mommy. Lots of questions. 😂 moms who use bottles, how many times do you let baby drink out of the bottle before you wash it and boil it???
@mcrowell0970, earlier I said I was nervous about her not eating enough you know?? Did Piper sleep pretty much through the night without eating so much? She's eating pretty good, I just worry about her not waking up to eat 😫😫😫
@annaerandolph, yea I don't waste money on stuff like that or wipes warmer! They really don't need much when they're young! Just lots of bibs, clothes, and blankets! 😹and toys ofc🤗
@elysiansmama, that's what I did 😁 yeah they look like they would come in handy. I was also gonna get a bottle warmer but I don't even know if I'll need it. Isn't room temp usually fine?
@annaerandolph, yeah ikr! She's been perfectly fine with it! I just use a pot and do the old fashioned boiling water! They do look convenient tho👀
@elysiansmama, I thought bottled water was sterile?? 😂😂 yeah we're kinda broke rn so I can't really go buy a crap ton of bottles. Yeah I've seen those!! I didn't know how they worked though
@annaerandolph, you may be able to find a sterilizer on offer up if you need one ! Ya know the ones u can just throw in the microwave
@annaerandolph, yea I only had four until I could afford to buy her more which was around four months, now she has 7! Don't stress, just use your gut if u feel like u need to sterilize then go for it! People would try to make me feel like I wasn't doing it right bc I'd just use straight bottled water, and didn't boil it or that her bottles were weird 😑
@annaerandolph yes you'll be fine doing that, soap and water works just fine I started off with four, got a little lazy and bought more lol. We have around 12 and just wash them and keep it moving.
@elysiansmama, yeah me either :/ I also only have 4 bottles right now until I can get some more. @haleybae, it's okay!! I was wondering if that would be okay to wait to boil once a week. @noirdiva83, that's what my sister-in-law said. She only boiled them right after she got them out of the pack and her daughter never had thrush or anything either
Honestly I only sanitized twice, only used hot soap and water after one use. My daughter has never had an issue with thrush, no illnesses at all and she's 8 months.
@annaerandolph, I rinse out then let soak with hot water and soap and then scrub n rinse until I boil them the next day. I don't have time to boil everyday
@haleybae, @noirdiva83, so y'all wash and boil them after the baby drinks out of them one time?? @dreamermom, that's kinda what I was thinking about doing but I just don't want her to get thrush or anything :/ I definitely am gonna wash her bottles every time after she eats, but I didn't know how often to boil them.
I wash mine after each use. Super hot water. And evetually after 2-3 uses it needs to be cleaned. I never boiled mine just made sure ot was always scolding hot water they soaked in with special bottle wash soap.
I washed them every time, and once a week I would sanitize everything!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
AF due 29th, anyone else?
Hi all AF is due 29th Sept for me feels like forever away. Has anyone tested yet or when do you plan on testing x

Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
@annaerandolph, I actually used the microwave sterilizer bags that they use for sterilizing your breast pump parts to do the nipples and rings... I wash in such super hot water anyway nothing can survive it... not even my husbands hands! 😅😂 he always whimpers every time I make dish water! 😅
