Hi Girls,
Just doing a bit of research at the moment, our baby is due in July and I REALLY want to give breastfeeding a try.... however I want to try and breast feed and express as early as possible to allow my hubby to help with the feeding... I think people say the earliest you can start with this is 8-12weeks???
Anyway, I am looking at buying a steriliser for when we do start to use bottles as well... what I'm wondering is should we buy just a basic steriliser or get one of the starter packs that includes bottle warmers etc?? Will we have to warm the breast milk bottles as the baby will be used to drinking warm breast milk from me???
Also does anyone have any experience of swapping from exclusively breast to expressing as well??? I want to try and be as informed and prepared as I can be
Thanks x x
