Should I choose plastic or glass baby bottles?

Glass bottles are durable and easier to sterilize, while plastic bottles are lightweight and shatterproof for babies learning to hold their own milk. Both are great options, but if you choose plastic, always verify that the product is completely BPA-free.

How often do I need to sterilize baby bottles?

You must sterilize all bottles before the first use and at least once a day for babies under three months old to kill bacteria. For older babies, washing the bottles thoroughly with hot soapy water and a clean brush is usually sufficient.

When should I replace the silicone nipples on the bottles?

Replace bottle nipples every two to three months, or immediately if the silicone becomes cloudy, sticky, or shows small tears. You will also need to buy new nipples with a faster flow rate as your baby grows so they don't get frustrated during feedings.

What is the difference between a cloth bib and a silicone bib?

Cloth bibs are soft and absorbent, perfect for catching drool and milk spills. Silicone bibs have a catch-pocket and can be wiped clean instantly, making them the best choice for the messy solid food stage.

Is it safe to heat a baby bottle in the microwave?

You should never heat a baby bottle in the microwave because it creates dangerous hot spots that can scald your baby's mouth. Instead, warm the bottle by placing it in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes and gently swirling the milk.

When should I transition my baby to a sippy cup?
