Drying bottles and pumps
This might sound like a REALLY stupid question but how does everybody dry their bottles and pump parts after sterilising?
I use an electric steriliser/dryer and don’t know what I’d do without the drying function😫 air drying never seems to work!
I’m going to stay at my dads in a couple of weeks and I feel like bring the steriliser with me will be difficult and I can do Milton but idk how I’d get it all dry in time to use! I read that you shouldn’t use a towel or kitchen roll incase it transfers any germs so I have no idea what to do, HELP PLEASEEE!!

Also there's sterilising bags and you can sterilise in the microwave with the right steriliser ;)
If I need asap, I'll use a kitchen towel x
We use sterilising bags that take 3 minutes in the microwave then set bottles upside down on kitchen paper to dry 😊 They come out of the bag pretty hot so they air dry pretty quickly.

I use a drying rack and let air dry. If needed paper towel but only if there's no other solution. Just bear in mind that you are sterilising against the worst of it (salmonella, listeria...) but domestic contamination is inevitable. And luckily for us it's not that dangerous. Sterilise and leave air dry, if necessary dry with paper towel. You are doing great!
