In general, plastics degrade over time, so if you had plastic bottles and nipples they should probably be replaced.
They need to be thrown away.
Are not to reuse the nipples or pacis.

We use Playtex Drop-Ins and latex nipples. The packaging said not to put the nipples in the dishwasher, but I do anyway. Why is that? Is it to prevent the latex from breaking down or what? That's what I had thought, but then I wondered if maybe the detergent...

I found a bottle he likes the dishwasher can't scrub inside the nipples and get all the filmy milk residue out like a nipple brush can (or my finger).
We are finishing up the last of our liners for the playtex drop ins now .

DS has no problem going between breast and bottle I.
So do I.
I wouldn't write them off yet.

I'm making a list of things I need to get for the baby. I nursed L for 12 months but he always also took bottles of pumped milk. Not regularly but he then took bottles from 12-18 months. DH does not think its necessary to replace the bottles or nipples...

I know I'm going to replace the nipples on ours because I've read that our nipples shouldn't have even lasted THIS long (Drop-Ins).
Just a reminder to 2+'ers that you might want to stock up on nipples!

Plastics degrade, nipples can start to fall apart/tear and become choking hazards.

We aren't reusing any of the bottles or nipples for #2.

How many women out there have long nipples ?? I consider long anything over 3/4" /18mm. There is something about long nipples that I just love. How does anyone else feel??

Probably a really stupid FTM question, that I'm pretty sure I know the answer to, but figured asking can't hurt (unless I get flamed...then it might hurt a little ;) )...Pacifiers and nipples should be thrown away once they've outlived their usefulness...

No leaks there either.

Which ones did you use? We used AVENT bottles with the drop-ins.
