I just add it to the storage container we use for baby things. When the next LO comes we'll re sanitize and inspect the nipples.

I did this too.

I washed all the bottles, nipples and bases for the nipples separately and then put them in a plastic storage container. When I took them out, I washed and re-sanitized them again and have been using them ever since and didn't have any problems.

Make sure that the bottles and parts are all completely dry before storing and you should be fine.

I always buy new nipples but I store the bottles with the old nipples so I can know exactly which nipple to buy.  I keep them all in a plastic container.

Hi All! Is there a reason or need for new nipples. We are using the same as last little one.

Definitely replace the nipples. You're supposed to replace them every few months anyway.

Depends on how much they were used. If LO didn't take them then they're fine to save and reuse. If they had heavy use then toss them.
