Sterilizing bottles

You don’t really need to Sterilize them! I just run mine under hot hot water and wash them and my baby is 3 months old! She is fine ! But definitely if you want to keep them sterilized, I would do it ago soon!!
I believe they are only sterilized for a certain time?.. Wouldn’t hurt to do it again if need be . Also well wishes on the upcoming birth xoxox wishing you the best mama!!
@Gabby did you do this from birth?
@Louise yes I did! I do have a sterilizer I’ve used it a couple times! But you know things work differently for everybody and ever baby is different! I use to just boil my bottles also!

If you’re worried about it sterilize them again because sterilization only lasts for 24h!
@Gabby advice on this varies by country. In the UK the official advice is to sterilise for as long as you're using formula
They only stay sterile for 24 hours so yes do before use
I’ve stopped sterilising since 7/8months most I do is just get a bowl and pour hot boiling water over it in a big bowl after washing it. My husbands aunt did it for all her 4 children.
@Gabby advice in the UK is to sterilise every bottle every time it’s used if using formula. OP has posted incognito so I don’t know where she’s located but if it is the UK then yes she should be sterilising
They will need sterilising again. They only stay sterile for 24hrs (48hrs for mam) x
