We have been syringe feeding what I pump but it sounds like doing a bottle should be ok too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421678 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:50:58 +0000 autumnlove 421678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I boiled everything the first time and after that about once a month! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421659 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:46:18 +0000 travelgirl1 421659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: threadjacking too, but A has breast and bottle. She'll take it from both me and her daddy like a champ but her preferred is breast-pumping hadn't caused us any probs at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421569 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:16:56 +0000 MamaMoose 421569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Tricycle: yup I boiled everything.</p> <p>Sorry to thread jack but are you just getting your bottled ready or are you planning to start pumping/bottle feeing at this point. I would love to let hubs do a feeding and even more so I would love to know at one feeding a day exactly how much baby girl is getting. But I don't want to mess with the good thing we have going since she has started taking the breast well (with the sheild of course) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421563 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:14:18 +0000 Mrsbells 421563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never boil the bottles, just the nipples and nipple rings and any other silicone pieces.<br /> Actually I just follow the instructions in the booklet. I think I did boil the avent bottles but not the playtex ventaire </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421556 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:11:47 +0000 travelgirl1 421556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I boil the nipples, that's the bit going on their mouth so you want it to be super clean :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421552 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:11:13 +0000 loveisstrange 421552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I boil all the pieces also. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421548 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:07:32 +0000 prettylizy 421548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Tricycle: you are too cute.

They should be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421525 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 11:56:12 +0000 babynumber1 421525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I boil the nipples also and have never had an issue :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nipple-in-boiling-water-too-or-just-bottle-to-stealize#post-421522 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 11:55:37 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 421522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sleep deprived brain can't figure out how to get a bottle ready for the first time. I have tomee tipee bottles - it says to place bottles in boiling water for 5 minutes before first use to sterilize - do I put the nipple in boiling water, too? I'm not sure if the boiling water will hurt the nipple. </p>
