Bottles Bottles

Bambie30 by Bambie30 Talking(January 2007) (rank 187th)
i personally dont like bottle brushes not unless they were thrown out after each use and even when i did use them they never got all the gunk off the sides or in the teat from formula. I use about 80ml of cool water and 2 teaspoons of raw(not cooked) rice in the bottle then putting my finger over the hole in the teat without squeezing it. Shake vigourisly(probably spelt wrong lol) within seconds watch the bottle become crystal clean and all the germs and bacteria are gone when the rice is emptied out. This really works i have used this since having my first child on bottles.

bottle brushes

 

I personally loved to use the bottle brushes, as that is what i found easiest. I did use the rice treatment like yourself, but that didn't work for me. That technique is what i used first, but didn't work like i said, so i used the brush.

I agree I only use a bottle brush but now I know about the rice method I will definitely give it a go.
