Hi. Was here allthe time during my toddler's first two yrs of life. Helped me much in bfing. Anyway baby #2 is on the way and this time I'll sah. I've got everything ready for this LO except that am I nuts for not even buying one baby bottle for her? I plan on nursing her like I did to her sister for four plus yrs. While I still have time to buy, do I buy? And how many do I need if evr? Still kept DDs old breastflow bottles but I dnt know if I can use them if I buy new teats for those. Help!
i love you, my little mooncake mahal kita

I don't think it's nuts to not have bottles at this point. It's basically a guessing game anyway - LO might not like the kind you buy.
If for some reason there was a situation where you needed one... Well most drug stores have a baby section where you could pick one up. I feel like this is an unlikely situation though.
Good luck!
My advice to everyone is to have at least one bottle and a small amount of formula on hand. With my first, I ended up having major health complications a week after delivery. I was rushed to the hospital leaving my H (and then my mom) to take care of the baby. I wasn't in a condition to pump, and ended up having to take meds that made bf impossibly. So while worrying about his wife and taking care of a 1 wk old, my H had to go out in the cold and snow to buy a bottle and some formula. Totally not worth it. And best laid plans don't always work out exactly as you want.
