Bottles
Does anyone know how many bottles we should have on hand?
I have 3 5oz and 3 9oz Born Free BPA free bottles. Should I buy more or is this sufficient to start with?
Thanks...

Re: Bottles
I would get 3 more 9 oz bottles. You dont want to run out of clean bottles in the middle of the night. The 5oz are great at first but before you know it they are sucking down 6+ oz and those bottles become useless.
AJ was eatting every 3-4 hours when he first came home. I did not bf, he was bottle/formula fed only.

Re: Bottles
I registered for 4 of the smaller Born Free bottles and 4 of the 9oz ones as well as the Playtex Drop-In set in both sizes. Since I will hopefully be BF'ing I shouldn't need them for a little while but when I start pumping it will be good to have a few bottles on hand for some of the feedings.

Re: Bottles
good question! I wasn't sure about that either 
I currently have 6 9 oz glass bottles... on my registry is another 6 (but in a different brand, just in case Scone doesn't like one).

You both bring up great points.
With that.. i'm going to buy a few more 9oz bottles, but a different brand...
Friggen BPA free bottles are EXPENSIVE!! $31 for 3 of them

I would try getting the Dr. Brown's BPA free too. Those are the only bottles Andrew did well on. And I think they cost less then the Born Free.
