How to choose and use bottles for your baby's feeding routine

Baby bottles are familiar in many homes with little ones. Choosing well depends not only on shape but also on volume, teat flow, cleaning habits, and your baby's stage.

Start with capacity—young babies may not need a large bottle, while later stages can benefit from more volume for bigger feeds.

Teats matter too. Flow should match how baby drinks and should be checked regularly to ensure they remain in good condition.

After each use, disassemble the bottle for thorough cleaning. Threads, teats, and the base can trap residue if rinsed quickly only.

A simple routine can include: - Disassemble after each feed - Wash with a suitable cleanser - Use dedicated brushes for bottle and teat - Rinse very well with water - Dry completely before storage - Check bottle and teat condition regularly

Buy the number of bottles you realistically need rather than stocking too many at once.

A good bottle routine is one you can keep up with—easy to clean and aligned with your family's rhythm.
