Sterilizing Bottles
At what age did you stop sterilizing your babies bottles. Also, did you do it everytime, or a couple of times a week. Thanks!

Re: Sterilizing Bottles
I will be honest- I only sterilized them a couple of times after the first time. We have extremely hot water so I didn't worry about it.
BTW- nothing happened.

Re: Sterilizing Bottles
I'm still steralizing after 11 weeks. I plan to continue doing this until she takes the sippy cup.

Re: Sterilizing Bottles
I just wash them and the nipples in hot soapy water. I boil the nipples once in a while along with the pacis.

Re: Sterilizing Bottles
My DD is 8 months old and I still boil her bottles daily. It's more just a habit that DH and I have gotten into. I guess we could stop at anytime.

Re: Sterilizing Bottles
i sterlilized the bottles everytime I used them for the first month or so. Then I sterilized them every few days, and then I think by 2 mths I stopped and just threw them in the dishwasher.

Re: Sterilizing Bottles
after about 3 or 4 months. I sterilized every time. I feel that a newborn needs their bottles, or the nipples at least, sterilized.

Re: Sterilizing Bottles
She's almost 8 months and I still do. Although I do it because it's easier than running them through the diswasher - it takes alot less time.
I rinse them with hot soapy water, pop them in the sterilizer and in 6 minutes, they are done. So easy!

Re: Sterilizing Bottles
I sterilized them before my first time using them...that's it though I could not keep up with the pumping and washing and sterilizing, so I did not and all was fine,.

Same here. I throw everything in a tupperware bowl full of really hot soapy water and then just rinse them well after a little while.

I bought the sterilizer rack for the microwave, but never took it out of the box.
