How many bottles?

youngin12

For those that have EFF, how many bottles would you recommend having?  What sizes?

I haven't gotten any of the 4 oz. yet (my shower is Saturday) but somehow I've racked up about 14 of the 9oz.

I'd definitely get some small ones.
Maybe around 6 of them. LO is 13 weeks and we just broke out the bigger bottles.

Thanks for the input ladies. I appreciate it!

Oh geez - if you already have 14 then you DEF don't need any more!

I only have 7 and I do fine. You have plenty.

I think you are good. We have 12-5oz and 12-9oz. The only thing I use the small ones for now is mixing formula for cereal.

We have 6 4oz bottles and 6 9oz bottles. I only use the 4oz bottles and I end up washing them daily.

Thanks everyone! I think I may end up taking a pack back especially if I end up getting more at the shower.

I would just use the big bottles from the get go. We were able to use the 4oz bottles until about 8 weeks and then had to switch. The small ones are a little more comfortable to hold when feeding a newborn, but the big ones (we have 8oz bottles) work just fine. If I could go back, I probably would have just bought the big bottles from the beginning.

This.

We have 4 9 oz bottles. Thats it. Never felt the need for more bottles (I SAH, so I understand that moms who go to work might need more, I dunno) or smaller bottles.

We have 3 of the smaller ones and we have been using them but I don't think they are necessary. The bigger ones work just fine too.

So tired, didn't even realize I already responded.
