how long should plastic bottles for babies be used?

Question

I 'm using some plastic bottles to contain milk for my babies, every time I use I boil them, but I wonder it is still OK if I continue to re-use them like this after 6 months?

Answer 1

Please don't listen to any body who okay's use of plastic bottles.These bottles are highly Toxic ,specially at extreme temperatures like boiling and cooling in a refrigerator .To confirm,check with a Doctor or the internet.I would not risk my child even for all the money in the world,by saving on cost of glass or metallic bottles.

Answer 2

My child bottle also boil everyday once in the morning, not every time after used. Sometimes I change it after 6 months but some can last for one year. Have to see the quality of the bottle. Especially the bottom part of the bottle, the brush can't really clean it. It will turn yellowish at the bottom part then I will change it quit frequent. Secondly is the nipples must change. For me I change it every two months or even early.

Answer 3

I'd say that they are okay to use until they show they are wearing out. I personally don't boil my bottles everytime I use them, but I'm sure they'll be alright. You can always look up the manufacturer's website to see.

Answer 4

its o.k to use them as long as they are not showing any signs of wear and tear. put it this way im still using the same bottles that my 15 month old twins had at birth, its important to change the teats though!
