Replacing nipples every 1-2 months is advisable to maintain hygiene and integrity, especially when signs of wear, such as discoloration or thinning, appear.

While many liners are designed to fit multiple types of bottles, it's important to confirm compatibility with your specific bottle brand to ensure a proper fit.
What’s the best way to clean baby bottle nipples?
Washing with hot soapy water and thorough rinsing is effective. Additionally, sterilizing in boiling water or using a steam sterilizer ensures maximum hygiene.
