Do you keep bottles, nipples, Pacifiers for next child or throw them out?

I'm organizing my kitchen cabinet and want to start putting away DS 4 oz bottles, nipples and Pacifiers. I'm thinking I may keep the bottles and throw out the nipples and pacifiers. DS hardly used pacifiers and only used them for about 3 months. They hardly looked used. I'm just thinking that they may not be good to use when I have another baby, and I should just start fresh. Any suggestions?

I saved them for awhile after #1 but then had no room anymore and didn't think I'd have another so I just threw them out. Now that I have #2 I had to buy all new stuff. I would have bought new nipples/pacifiers anyway, but I wish I'd saved the bottles as I could use some extra ones.

I chucked them as soon as she was done with them. It's a good thing, too because who knew it'd be almost 4 years till we had another one?

I threw them all out, when they get scratches in them they are apparently a breeding ground for bacteria. Plus, I wanted nice new shiny bottles this time around!

Since I used the Playtex Drop Ins and they are so cheap I am just going to buy brand new ones for baby #2.

DS has been on sippy cups for 4 months and I just threw out his bottles last week. It was hard for me b/c it means he's not a baby anymore, but we will get new ones if we have another.

This is what I did....Especially given the fact that I had used Playtex drop-ins for my DS...They were in perfect condition Chat Icon

Sometimes rubber like on the paci's kind of gets old and sticky. I would throw them out.

I threw out the bottles and nipples, but kept the paci's just because DS didn't use most of them. He stopped taking a paci at 3 mos
