Caring for Your Mubsie Bottle
A little care keeps your bottle clean, fresh, and safe for your baby. Here's everything you need to know.
✨ Before First Use
Wash all parts with warm water and mild soap. Then boil them for 5 minutes and let them air dry.
🍼 Daily Cleaning
- Rinse the bottle with water right after every feed, so milk doesn't dry and stick.
- Wash it with warm water, mild soap, and a soft bottle brush before the next use.
- Take the bottle apart fully and clean each part, including the nipple and vent.
- Throw away any leftover formula. Never save it for the next feed.
💧 Milk Stuck to the Bottle?
If milk dries before you rinse, it can stick to the silicone. Don't worry, it comes off easily:
- Soak the bottle in warm water with a little white vinegar for 15–20 minutes.
- Wash it with mild soap and a soft brush.
- Rinse well and let it dry.
🌿 Getting Rid of Smells
Silicone can hold on to smells, especially from milk. This is normal and fades after a few boils.
For quicker results:
- Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to a bowl of water.
- Soak the bottle in it overnight.
- Rinse well, then let it air dry in sunlight near a window.
🔄 When to Replace
- Nipple: every 2 months
- Bottle: every 4 months
For best hygiene, stick to this schedule even if the bottle still looks fine.
🔍 Check Before Every Use
Look over the bottle and nipple before each feed. Replace them right away if you notice:
- Cracks, cuts, or tears
- A sticky or rough surface
- Changes in shape or size
- A nipple hole that has become bigger
🚫 Please Avoid
- Sharp tools or rough scrubbers, which can damage the silicone
- Harsh cleaners like bleach
- Leaving the bottle in direct heat, like on a stove
