How many bottles to buy?

[lilyd]

I'm sure this has been asked before, but could somebody please tell me how many bottles I am likely to need (I am intending just to FF).

I was intending to buy just the 240ml size and was thinking I would need about 10. Will this be enough/too many?

Many thanks

6 feeds a day, so its upto you - depends how often youre going to wash them.
in reality one is enough!

I bought a set of the ventair ones plus an extra 6 oz on top of that i will probably also get another set after baby comes they go up to 9 oz

i have only ever had 3 9oz bottles, that was the best amount for us

that does sound like a good amount though

You could probably manage on 5/6 but i had 10 and it worked well especially in the 1st 3 months. Jac would feed 6 times in 24 hrs so with 10 bottles i always had spare ready and i wasnt continuously washing and sterilising them.

We're down to 4 feeds in a day now and i activelly still use 6 so i have spares in case of a growth spurt etc...

I have 9. So far it's been working great. These are 2 oz bottles though. I'll probably start stocking up on larger bottles soon since LO is downing 2 oz a sitting.

do you mean 5oz?
