    First time mum to be and planning on breastfeeding. I spoke to midwife this week so suggested I had a few bottles just in case.

    Which bottles/steriliser would your suggest?

    Breastfeeding equipment is expensive as is bottle!

    Mam microwave steriliser! Look it up on amazon, its cheap and comes with two bottles.

    I breastfed too and bought this just as a back up, the bottles have been handy for expressed milk. Xx

    I have an Avent microwave steriliser, got it half price.

    I bought a few bottles as well (newborn come in a pack of 3)

    Once I knew I was expressing I bought a pump as well but that was after baby arrived and wasn't taking the boob.

    I got 3 avent bottles new on ebay for £13 they were £20 everywhere else. Don't bother with 4oz bottles get 9oz ones.
