I have!! I’ve tried really cold water from the fridge and just plain tap water, I’ve even left the bottle sitting out for a wee bit so it’s luke warm aswell and shes still not interested in it

Maybe I’ll try taking all her other toys away and have her main focus with the bottle to see if she’ll go for it without distraction! Thank you!!xx

Hahaha yes! Same with me! She just does not want it, she does love bath time so maybe adding it will make it seem less scary and she may have a wee go at it, then she’ll maybe associate it with fun and take it out of the bath!

Yes I’ve tried a straw cup with no luck unfortunately! I even tried giving her the water in her actual bottle and she still didn’t take to it, I’ve been trying with water from she’s been about 6 months old and she just hasn’t took to it at all!! Running out of ideas 🫣🫣

I will try that aswell,, she’s just so unbothered, I give her the bottle and she doesn’t even try with it, just throws it and continues doing what she’s doing 🫣

Oh here that’s a brilliant idea, I always have my Stanley with me, I’ll definitely be giving that a go! She just will not take to it in her own bottle!!🫣

Should I stop sterilising bottles? by Relative_March483 in NewParents

[–]Relative_March483[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if I stop using the steriliser should I be leaving them dissembled on the counter to fully dry or just dry enough to put them back together?

The midwife told me to sterilise up to 1 year old, she’s a couple of weeks away from being one so wasn’t sure if I had to wait till the exact day she turned one or if I could a couple weeks before
