If you’re thinking about starting to bottle feed your baby, there are a number of things to consider to make sure it’s a smooth transition for both you and your little one.
1
Always clean and sterilize all feeding parts before each use.
2
Wash your hands thoroughly and ensure surfaces are clean before handling sterilized components.
3
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or anti-bacterial cleaners with bottles and nipples.
4
For inspection of the nipple, pull it in each direction.
5
Don’t warm milk in a microwave as this may cause uneven heating and could scald your baby.
6
Always check the milk temperature before feeding.
7
Make sure that the bottles are not over-tightened as this can cause leaking.
