I've got the heavy duty electric double pump for work and the manual single I bought for home. And then a couple weeks ago I had a total meltdown over my supply, so I went out and bought a single electric so I could pump more at home. Whew! I might as well have sent my LO's college fund straight to Medela. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185592 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 11:13:09 +0000 Mrsbells 185592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started out with the playtex nurser drop in set and 3 avent bottles </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185590 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 11:11:03 +0000 Mrs. Pen 185590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pointybird: three pumps?! lol why??</p> <p>we have the glass Dr. Browns and soo thankful he loves them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185586 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 11:04:53 +0000 enjollah 185586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I rotate between 3 4oz bottles and use the medela storage bottles. I really like those especially because LO drinks 2-3 oz at a time when drinking from a bottle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185578 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 10:57:01 +0000 Mrs. Bee 185578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>olive has three comotomo bottles that she gets during the day (sometimes she gets 4 bottles so the bottles have to be washed, but she's at home so it's ok). </p> <p>and then i have 8 medela bottles that i pump into and keep pumped milk in the fridge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185559 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 10:45:27 +0000 plaidpants 185559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have around 8 or 9 that we use, all the plastic Medela bottles that came with my three(!) pumps. I send 3 to daycare and take 4 to work to pump into. </p> <p>We also have a bunch of Born Free glass bottles that I registered for, but my LO refuses to use them. What a waste! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185528 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 10:22:46 +0000 chopsuey 185528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only bottle fed for the first 2 months. I registered for the same # of bottles as you. Ended up returning the 8 ounces though. Had 2 Dr Brown's glass bottles that I rotated between.<br /> I plan on giving baby 2 the bottle during the day and breast at night so will probably buy at least 4-8 more? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185521 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 10:18:58 +0000 T.H.O.U. 185521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I may sway the results, but we have a TON! </p> <p>I was pumping 3-4 times per day at work so just to be safe I packed 6-8 bottles with me. Then LO was taking 4 bottles to daycare so our daily total needed was about 12. We wanted enough for 2 days so we have about 30 bottles. </p> <p>We ended up buying the Gerber bottles becase they fit to my pump and she didn't mind the nipples. They are plastic but they are made in the USA and BPA free. I've found them at Target and Amazon. They are 3 for $3 and I was able to stock up during a Buy one get one 50% off sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185520 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 10:18:10 +0000 Mrs. Pen 185520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pelikila: both. I can actually pump into my Dr. Browns bottles. I have like 8 plastic pumping bottles that came with my pump. But 4 feeding bottles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185513 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 10:14:07 +0000 pelikila 185513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For pumping into or for feeding from? I only had 4 bottles to pump into (two for work, two for home). For feeding from at daycare I had 6. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ebf-moms-how-many-bottles-did-you-buy#post-185511 Mon, 11 Jun 2012 10:12:11 +0000 Mrs. Pen 185511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We registered for a pack of 2 8oz and 2 4oz. We got both, so four bottles total. Now that I'm having to pump for nearly every feeding, I am washing bottles all day! Thinking of getting some more...</p> <p>how many do you have? </p>
