Same here. I either hand wash them or throw them in the dishwasher.

I still do it. DH told me to put them in the dishwasher, but we don't put the dishwasher on everyday, and I would run out of bottles if I had to wait til we run the dishwasher. We have the sterilizer thingy that goes in the microwave, so it only takes 4 minutes...very easy for me.

OK, I'm the big loser here...I did it until she was just about 1! Chat Icon I figured, what the heck, it didn't add any work for me (we had the microwave sterilizer).

I'm not sure what I will do when this baby is born but I'm sure my DH will insist on the sterilizer--he's anal like that!

I stopped doing it daily when he was 3 or 4 months. After that I washed by hand and sterilized maybe once a month.

I will probably sterilize until Megan is a year old. I just feel more comfortable.

I sterilized my son's bottles after every use until he was 4.5 mos old. Now I wash them with hot water and soap.

Only when they were new and out of the package. They are no longer sterile once you touch them to put milk in them anyway.
