Best Bottles for twins?

Dori722 · December 2011

I am new to the bottle thing since my son refused one and was exclusively breastfed. Can you recommend the best bottles and accessories I will need for them? I used Dr. Browns a little bit in the early weeks (when my son would take a bottle) and I liked them but I hear they have too many parts to clean and that they are a pain with twins. Would love thoughts as I know nothing about bottles...Thanks!

I bought the cheapo ones (Gerber and Evenflo). They attached to my pump and worked just fine for us

Sorry, we were Dr. Browns users here. We got the dishwasher baskets and found it wasn't too bad and just ran the dishwasher nightly.

We use Dr. Browns and love them. I have been exclusively pumping the whole time since both boys would never latch. We have 52 bottles - yes 52! We have a bucket in the garage that we drop the dirty ones into. I wash them by hand every 2-3 days. It takes a good 60-90 minutes to do them all but it's not that bad since we have so many.

Avent bottles worked best for us when we were using them.

Us, too. We had a day's worth of bottles and would put all the parts in dishwasher baskets and run it at night.

We are also using dr browns. The parts really don't bother me. We just drop in a bowl of hot soapy water to soak and handwash and then use the Dr Browns microwave steam sterilizer twice a week. I have the dishwasher baskets but we don't run our dw enough to use those very often.

Also we love this drying rack! We have two of them. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0032G9E0G

That's what I do too! I actually use Dr. Browns for one baby and Playtex ventaire for the other. I have two dishwasher baskets. I quickly hand wash all the bottles/nipples at night (I don't rinse or anything) then put them in the dishwasher and run it at night.
