Confused about sterile bottles
This may sound silly, but I’m a FTM so any advice would be appreciated 🥹
My baby is 11 days old, and at some point I would like to start going out more but I’m confused how the bottles will be sterile in a bag, I currently use the Tommee Tippee bottles and the Tommee Tippee UV steriliser but I read once they are out the steriliser they aren’t sterile anymore? Maybe I’m misunderstanding it. Just wanted some advice on what other people do 😊

They are sterile for 24hrs after you take them out if you keep the bottle lid on and the bottle closed x
Once milk is added you have to follow the safe milk storage guidelines. Depends if you are using formula or breast milk. If you are using formula there are pre-made milks that we used going out and about at the beginning just to take one extra stress away! Xx
Yeah so like chloe said. Its important to make sure the nib is sterile. Doesnt matter about the outside of the bottle. So as long as the lid is on then its sterile. If baby starts to drink then its good for only 60 mins. X
I use tommee tippee bottles but sterilise in the microwave. Once the microwave finishes you tip out extra water then screw the lid on and they are sterile for 24 hours afterwards so I can only presume it is the same with the steam steriliser

Sleep training
We’re in the gutter of the 4 month regression. My son wakes up ever hour at night screaming. We cosleep and that has made zero difference. He doesn’t always wake up to eat sometimes he just wants us to walk him. I feel like im going insane havent slept in three weeks now. During the day he only does contact naps. Next week im going to try to get to stop doing the contact naps but im terrified that hes going to go crazy and sleep will be even worse. I’m going to do the Ferber method week. I need encouragement and tips and tricks if you have any!

Baby Clementoni Projector
I've been looking at getting a baby clementoni disney projector for my little man's 1st birthday coming up in November. I didn't realise until I went into smyths that there's actually 2 versions. I was just wondering what the differences are and how did your little ones take to them?

Supply
For ebf mumma how did you know you were loosing your supply I pump like once a day maybe had to switch from my wearables to a manual hand pump due to my wearables only giving me foremilk after a 30 mins session and not a whole lot of it but even with my hand pump I’ve gone from getting 4/5oz to barely getting 2oz

21 degrees - Sleepsuit & sleepbag?
The egg shows its 21.8 degrees in this bedroom.
She’s in a footed sleepsuit and a 1 tog sleepsuit. Is this ok? She feels warm but not clamming.
She’s 10 weeks old and on antibiotics for a viral infection, so I’m second guessing everything.
