Although I also get another one with my insurance, so we'll see what I get. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-sterilize-pump-for-second-baby#post-2019535 Sun, 11 Jan 2015 21:20:38 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2019535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fuzzypeaches: I think I'm going to get new membranes for mine because I felt it was losing suction at the end there. Otherwise I'm just going to clean/boil everything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-sterilize-pump-for-second-baby#post-2019527 Sun, 11 Jan 2015 21:17:17 +0000 fuzzypeaches 2019527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shortcake: @miramira: thanks ladies! I'm thinking I might get new membranes and tubing just in case :) </p> <p>I'm hoping there's no issue with the battery bc it's my favorite feature not to have to stay plugged in! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-sterilize-pump-for-second-baby#post-2019336 Sun, 11 Jan 2015 15:47:54 +0000 shortcake 2019336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am reusing my freestyle now. I ordered new tubing and got new bottles but reusing all the pump parts. Also the battery doesn't work anymore bc it was not being used for very long. I use mine plugged in so it's not a problem, but if you use it on the go you might want to order a new battery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-sterilize-pump-for-second-baby#post-2019294 Sun, 11 Jan 2015 14:40:56 +0000 miramira 2019294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would just sterilize all the equipment as you normally would. Shouldn't be a problem. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-sterilize-pump-for-second-baby#post-2019291 Sun, 11 Jan 2015 14:36:21 +0000 fuzzypeaches 2019291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi ladies,<br /> I tried to search for the answer but I still am not sure. I have the medela freestyle (saved my life, I loved it so much) and now that I'm expecting baby 2 I'm not sure if I need to refresh it at all? </p> <p>Do I need to buy new tubing/membranes? Can I reuse the same bottles? </p> <p>Thanks! </p>
