Son-of-a-Weizen Posted March 9, 2004 Report Posted March 9, 2004 Congrats! If this is your first, I'll give ya a little tip -- make sure that when you leave the hospital you get a nurse to snag 4 or 5 of those small milk/formula bottles that they use in there and send them home with you. The things hold about 3 or 4 oz. and are about 1 1/2 inches in diameter -- easy for small hands to get a grip on. Unless things have changed over the past 5 years, most places will sell only the heftier 8 oz and 10 oz ones. You'll want those small ones and will use them for quite some time. Quote
