twins and sharing bottles?
so im buying all my dr brown bottles in prep for my new guy and girl i bought dr browns since i loved it with my daughter hooowwwevver heres the question..
did you keep all their nipples from their bottles separate after you cleaned them or you just blend them all together and use whichever... same with binkys.. did u share or did they always have their own even after sterilized?

Re: twins and sharing bottles?
My boys share EVERYTHING! If Hunter doesn't finish his bottle and Georgie is still hungry-----Georgie gets the rest. Same for binkys, teethers, clothes, spoons, EVERYTHING.

Exactly what I was going to say. DS and DD share EVERYTHING! It gets way too crazy to keep track of who's is who.

Re: twins and sharing bottles?
My kids share everything too.
I always start out with giving DD a purple or pink bottle and DS a blue or green but it doesn't always end up that way! When they were babies DD liked the silicone nipples and DS the latex. I kept those separate for a little while but once they are moving around it is near impossible to keep things apart!!!

Oone of my sons has a dairy allergy so they've always had dufferent bottles and sippies and have been able to determine whose is whose since about 14 mos or so. Now they know-Ronan gets the red cups and Declan gets the blue

Re: twins and sharing bottles?
Once they are washed, everything is up for grabs! I usually don't let them share nipples or pacis if they aren't washed first, but once in a while I get the pacis mixed up. Oh well!
I also just bought one Sophie teether and figure they can share it. I will probably wash it a bunch, but what's a lilttle germ sharing amongst family

Re: twins and sharing bottles?
Yes share bottles. Here is another tip,
share food-Use one bowl and one spoon when you start feeding them solids! Image Attachment(s):

Re: twins and sharing bottles?
I guess I am the only one, but I have never and don't plan on ever letting my twins share bottles. Once they are clean then yes they share them. But a used bottle, not in my house!
Once they are older and mobile I am sure they will swap sippy cups but I will try to prevent this the best I can.

Re: twins and sharing bottles?
I think I should have specified in my response, I do not plan on allowing them to share "used" items. But one DC will not have separate dishes/bowls/bottles/utensils than the other. Just like how we all use the same set of dishes.
