Re-using bottles and bags

Hi All

I'm ebf DS2 but am just getting to the stage of considering expressing and letting DH do a few feeds. I've still got the bottles from when DS1 was small (early part of 2010) and some breastfeeding storage bags left over (new and unused).

I've bought new teats for the bottles but is there any reason that I can't use the bottles and storage bags this time around? Do they go 'off' or out of date? Of course I'd sterilise the bottles first but wasn't sure about the bags.

Thanks

I may be doing it all wrong Hmm but I have reused bottles and bags (sealed so sterile until used) from dd1 (2006) and dd2 (2009)! The box from the bags would have an expiry date, I'm guessing, if that were an issue. The only problem I've had is that my bottles from 6 years ago aren't BPA-free, I don't think it was a known problem then!

That was my logic too Happygirl then I made the mistake of thinking about things......!
