Probably a really stupid question but
I'll ask anyway.
I was going to sterlize the bottles today (with hopes that my  will be tempted to come out) - but if I do them today do I have to sterlize them again before I use them? It says they only stay sterlized for x hours if I don't open the sterlizer. Should I just wait until she gets home?

That's correct. We used those bottles till today - 6 days old - just make sure anytime they bring them in you put them in your suitcase and keep asking for more. Take ALL the free stuff you can get your hands on!

I feel so bad doing that, but I know everyone does it. Do you empty it out several times a day or just once?

We were using them once a day - I'm also breastfeeding so they were supplements. But now we are reusing them and just keep sterilizing them.

Re: Probably a really stupid question but
Oh and make sure you as for lots of extra nipples for the bottles too. I told DH to ask for 10 and he felt funny asking so I had a student nurse get me them. She hooked us up. They should send you home with diapers too.
Oh and a friend told me to steal her hospital blanket the last day - just to have as a memory. I asked if we could have it and they said no, so DH took it while she wasn't looking and put it in our suitcase.

Re: Probably a really stupid question but
i dont know how i am going to feel about taking them either but EVERYONE keeps telling me to make sure i do it. but even if you only have a few it will give u time to get the other ones all ready.
when my friend had her baby - one of the nurses even told her to do it!
