Dr.Browns bottles
How often do you sterilize them?
How often do you sterilize them?
I sterilize the bottles after each use. I use the avent microwave sterilizer to do it. Its pretty easy and doesnt take long.
I only use them once in awhile because Andrew is BF, but I do use them a few times a week, like when I have to go into the office. I have only sterilized them once, when they were new. Now I soak them in hot soapy water, put the actual bottles in the dishwasher and wash all the parts by hand with the little brush.
You really don't have to sterilize bottles. Maybe the first time you use them would be a good idea, after that the dishwasher or handwashing would be just fine.
I use the Dr. Browns. They're great. I sterilized the first time. Then about once a week in the microwave sterilizer. I only sterilize the bottle and nipple though. Although lately I have been putting all the parts in the dishwasher except the beige thingy you use the brush for. Emily's been doing fine.
