When you plan on being out all day w/LO do you bring a few bottles & use a new one with each feeding, or do you bring one & rinse it out. I guess this could also apply if you are home all day w/LO.
i cant remember being out all day where it was an issue but i would prob bring a fresh one. at home i usually rinse so i dont have to clean a billion bottles at the end of the day. i am lazy.
If I am out, I usually bring three sippy cups fixed. I don't know where I will be when she gets hungry, and if I have the option to rinse it out or not.
If I am home, I usually just rinse it and re fill one.
ETA: Having sippy cups prepared makes it easier if I am on the road driving 4 hours to visit family. I can just pass her a new one instead of having to stop at a gas station, rinse it out, and refill it. We only stop to change diapers.

We use the Playtex bottle with drop-ins. These are the only bottle LO would drink out of when he was an infant. All you have to do is clean out the nipple and throw away the bottle bag after each feeding.
it depends where we are going. if were going to H's family's or my family's house, i will probably only bring one, but if were going out to the mall and stuff then i will bring seperate ones.

when we are out all day, i have an 8oz bottle with water in it, and then i take another one for mixing. i have a container with pre-measured formula in it and normally they are 4oz bottles.
at home i use the same bottle all day and just rinse it out, im lazy and dont have a dishewasher

We used to use these until DS realized he was freakishly strong & would rip the bottom of the drop in!

Oh man ! I tried to switch to the Avent ones like a month or so ago because I have a ton of them, and he won't drink out of them ! So frustrating !

Oh, I forgot to say what I do- For the most part, I rinse.
We usually pack 1-2 bottles with water and keep the formula measured out in a separate container. So clean bottle for each feeding.
We are getting ready to transition to milk and use the sippy more often. I'll be happy when we won't have to pack bottle/formula any more.

I bring one bottle and I will wash it with soap in a bathroom sink.
At home I have multiple bottles but out of habit I usually wash it right away and reuse it later
