how many bottles do u have? (that u use)

[JLeesmum]

i have... *ahem* lots...

[JustUs3]

We have 8 but 2 are those really little tommee tippee one's that you use when they are newborn's so we only use 6. :)

[Poppetfish]

We have 12 and i use to use them all when DD was younger. Now i just use 2. I just wash it out after each feed. Then i use the other bottle while the first bottle is draining on the sink. :)

Oh yes, i also have another empty bottle that sits in the nappy bag so i just grab my premixed formula from the cupboard and i am off.

[CrankyAndTired]

We have 12-16 in use ATM. Most are bigger ones cause he's 9 months old now :)

We wash and prepare them with boiled water in batches.. We're still using 2-3 overnight ATM

We have 8 but only really use 6 of them (two are different types that I don't like as much.)

[floodprincess]

I have 12 that are in use. 2 for feeds (alternating bottles with washes) and the rest store the EBM. Currently have 8 in the freezer and am alternating the other 4 through the expressing...it's very confusing lol

I had 6 Big avent bottles and Two little ones. We used the big ones for milk and the little ones for juice/water.

[MinkeyMoo]

I have none. This is my third and I have never had the need for a bottle. When I wnet back to work after DD2 (DD1 was at on site childcare when I returned with her) she had her lunch time ebm out of a sippy cup.

I have 5 but DS is two years old now, when he was younger I had 10-16 of the smaller ones!

[Beachside Mumma]

I think we have about 7 Avent bottles but 2 are the really small ones so I only use 5 at the moment.

[PeppaH]

We started with 6 but DF let DS loose one in Myer. So now we have 5 but only use 1 now.

[crazymuma]

I only have one now - DD is 18 months old.
As a newborn I think I had 6.

To those that have 10 or more - WHY?? I can't imagine any child having 10 bottles at day - not even a newborn.

[Yummy_Mummy]

we have 7 tommee tippee ones :) but she has cut back on her bottles to only have 3-4 per day because she likes water & eats alot of solids

[HelenHasTwins]

12 Avent ones:laughing: I use all of them, I make 12 each morning and then make a few to get me through the night ( which is not many as the boys only wake once or twice now)

All up I think I use about 14 bottles a day.

[em1984]

I have like 8 but the funny thing is, I breastfeed :D I have had to give ebm a few times and was never happy with the bottle I'd use so kept buying different ones. Now I dont use them at all as he has been using a sippy cup since he was about 5 months, and I've only ever had to give ebm once since then but he has water quite a bit. I think I should sell them, do people even buy second hand bottles?! They've hardly been used!

[~Temet Nosce~]

Lots. DD still has 2 a day in the morning and night so I'm using 2 cheapo tommee tippee bottles for her. And I have 6 Tommee Tippee closer to nature bottles that I used with her and will be using with this bub. And another 6 avent ones as well lol.

[garfield13]

4 tommee tippee ones in use, she only has 2 bottles a day now. I have 4 medela ones and a handful of cheapies for storing bm, but i stopped bf a few mths ago so there packed away now

[mum2bubba]

All up we have about 12 or 13 though we are only using 8 atm. I went out and bought 8 new ones just after he was born and the others I will probably through out cos they've been sitting in the cupboard for ages.

[BabelFish]

We have six and we use three a day. When she was younger I think we had the same amount but I can't remember! We have five x 260mls and 1 x 300mls which we use at night. But now that she's on toddler formula she's drinking slightly less milk each feed - it must be more filling or something I guess.

[mim1]

I don't know how many we have?! Probably 15 or so. I was trying to wean my ds for 2 months with NO success, so we bought all different types of bottles & teats, etc. Then suddenly at 12 months he weaned in 2 days!

We kept him on formula (rather than cows milk - long story) and ended up using 3 bottles (quite cheap ones ironically) and rarely used the rest. He was only drinking milk 3 times a day from a bottle by that age.

So, yes I have a drawer full of bottles and teats that really needs to be emptied as my ds has been drinking out of a cup for months now and doesn't use bottles at all now! :)
