Bc I do both , I just use the bag or boil everything
I use my dishwasher, all of the parts I have except for the medela hand pump are dishwasher and sterilizer safe. If you’re worried about small parts though they make bags and cages for the dishwasher so nothing gets lost! Read the instructions for each bottle brand and pump part but most of them can go in the top rack of the dishwasher and are meant to be washed after each use and sterilized that way or another way once a day
I was gifted a Momcozy bottle sterilizer and dryer at my baby shower. So far it’s been working very well. My husband and I did a few test runs. I’m due at the end of the month, so we’ll see how well it works in real life🤪 I’m also planning on breastfeeding and pumping!
@Desiree I heard it better to just boiled. What do you mean the bags?
We just wash with hot water & soap, but have a designated brush for bottles & pump parts & its own drying rack.
@Yesica sterilized steam bags , the hospital has them an you can get them from target/walmart or Amazon etc. microwave safe with a lil water at the bottom of the bag
@Sarah do your bottle & pump parts not say to sterilize once a day as well?
They have the bags if you don’t want to do the big machine
