We used the Avent Bottle Wash which was really good, never had a problem. ]]> Mon, 05 Mar 2007 20:32:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115546&title=cleaning-bottles#115546 <![CDATA[cleaning bottles... : Thanks everyone, I boil them...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115542&title=cleaning-bottles#115542 Author: Brenna

Thanks everyone,

I boil them in water after each wash (my fancy steriliser).

Have tried salt...

Will give the baking soda a go tomorrow....

Baking soda - 1tsp per litre of water, and soak them for a while. The gremlins are on Neocate (prescription formula) which leaves a film on the bottles and the formula manfaturer recommends baking soda. Seems to work well too.]]> Mon, 05 Mar 2007 14:53:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115412&title=cleaning-bottles#115412 <![CDATA[cleaning bottles... : We have a dishwasher... named...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115407&title=cleaning-bottles#115407 Author: Andie

We have a dishwasher... named Andie.  Blugh.

Good luck with those bottles, Anna.  My Plunket nurse said to rub salt in the teats to prevent milk build-up clogging them... maybe rubbing it on the bottles would work?

Dont worry we dont have a dishwasher either. What about boiling it in a pot with water perhaps?]]> Mon, 05 Mar 2007 07:41:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115303&title=cleaning-bottles#115303 <![CDATA[cleaning bottles... : Thanks, but bummer... we don&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115278&title=cleaning-bottles#115278 Author: Brenna

Thanks, but bummer... we don't have a dishwasher (prob the only household in NZ without one!! LOL )]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2007 21:17:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115278&title=cleaning-bottles#115278 <![CDATA[cleaning bottles... : I had the same problem i think...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115273&title=cleaning-bottles#115273 Author: Guests

I had the same problem i think it happens when the formula/milk is more greasy! I found a dishwasher was just awesome! That and cleaning them then sterilising them then cleaning again and resterilising them lol Dishwasher was the best bet though]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2007 21:12:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115273&title=cleaning-bottles#115273 <![CDATA[cleaning bottles... : thanks Danni, I have got a tommee...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115255&title=cleaning-bottles#115255 Author: Brenna

thanks Danni, I have got a tommee tippee bottle brush, cost about $10 so you'd think it would do the job?!?!
Ah well, more scrubbing I guess....]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2007 20:47:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115255&title=cleaning-bottles#115255 <![CDATA[cleaning bottles... : I used a specific baby bottle...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115244&title=cleaning-bottles#115244 Author: Bubbaloo

I used a specific baby bottle brush for our bottles that seems to get the milk out but James doesn't take the bottle so the milk wasn't in there for very long. ]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2007 20:31:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115244&title=cleaning-bottles#115244 <![CDATA[cleaning bottles... : I need some help!!

I need some help!!

I scrub and scrub my bottles, but never seem to be able to get rid of faint white marks around the very bottom (prob last 50ml) of the bottle.
I got told to try rice and salt with boiling water and shake it around. I tried it and still no improvement!!

Any ideas????? ]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2007 20:18:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5980&PID=115239&title=cleaning-bottles#115239
