Easiest method for newbie

I am in the process of adopting a newborn so we will obviously be formula feeding from birth.

I want to make it as easy & simple as possible and I’m wondering which gadgets / products are worth it. I’m fine with paying for things if they make it significantly easier.

Ex: I was going to get the baby brezza formula maker but then I read you have to clean it every 4 bottles, deep clean once a month, potential mold…no thanks. I am planning on getting the baby brezza bottle washer & sterilizer though.

Is a warm water dispenser worth it? Or would a bottle warmer be better? I’ve heard of the pitcher method which seems nice but I would prefer a glass pitcher which doesn’t seem to exist with the cool mixing lid thing.

Just looking for the laziest easiest way to do this lol thank you!

Cleaning baby brezza formula maker is not that bad, especially if you also get the sterilizer. I hand wash the bottles and the formula maker nozzle then put everything in the sterilizer. In one hour, everything is done and ready for the next feed. Also, I use purified water bottles, and my baby has not had any stomach upset yet.

By the way, you should try multiple kinds of bottles to see which one you and your baby like. I hate Dr Brown bottles. They leak all the time and have so many parts to clean. We tried 7-8 kinds of bottles, and we like Comotomo bottles the most.
