Strange form of nesting...

Indiechixor · January 2012

So, with my first kid I had ZERO nesting instinct. With this baby, I had a little housework cleaning and that was about it... except for getting the bottles ready.

We already have a full supply of Dr.Brown's bottles from DS#1, and I noticed a bit of calcification/white residue on the inside of the nipples and some of the bottles themselves - most likely from numerous trips through the washing machine without rinse-aid.

I boiled all of the nipples, flanges, and straws to sanitize them, but it didn't get the calcification off. I was seriously upset, and would not rest until ALL the nipples were clean...which meant 35 minutes at the sink washing each individual nipple with soap until they were clear. I had to close the drawer so I wouldn't start on the bottles... for some reason it's just the calcification that I can't stop thinking about and MUST rid all bottles of it!

Do I feel weird or what...

at least you are washing dishes that need washing. I washed all the pots and pans right out of the cupboard the other day. LOL I still dont know why.

Are you kidding? I spent several hours cleaning AND sterilizing all our baby bottles, nipples, and pacifiers and everything is brand new! I made my hubby help me organize it all yesterday and all he could do was laugh at how anal I am. I wish I could say that this is due to my nesting instinct but I'm kind of an OCD clean freak all the time. Lol.
