Hi bit advice needed ,
My lil one is mainly breast fed but does have a bottle in the afternoon (while I’m at work) my steriliser has just packed in today
He’s 1 on the 23rd of this month shall I go out and buy a new one or should he be ok without the bottle sterilised as he’s just about 1 , thanks for reading xx
You can just sterilise with boiling water, or just wash them well xx
My health visitor told me there isn’t really a need to sterilise once baby starts moving around the floor on their own so personally I wouldn’t bother wasting money when it’s just a few days. If you still want to do it, out boiling water to the marked dotted line in the bottle and turn the tear upside down on top of the bottle and put a little bit of boiling water and just wait for it to drip through x
@mrsbodell, Yeah for breast milk you don’t have to sterilise at all from what I read xx
@beebeejgill, what!!! Really I’ve never been told this lol so I could of saved money on it anyway 🤦🏼♀️xx
@fififmrbtteg, yep don’t need to sterilise with breast milk as your breast isn’t sterile so the field is broken already
Maybe just buy the tablets? If he is nearly 1 then once hes 1 he doesnt need formula so could be moved onto cows milk which with this you dont sterile but that's up to you x
When he’s 1 I was going to just give him cows milk in his cup and just get rid of his bottle anyway so maybe the tablets would be easier. Thank you xx
Just got my one month old to pee AND poop in the potty ☺️ #godiaperfree
Question ladies, those of you who plan to bottle feed, when you take your boxes of pre sterilised formula in to hospital (I am having a section so in a few days) are you ladies taking a bottle warmer or just giving it to baby as it is?? If I remember rightly with my son many moons ago the hospital gave me a pre sterilised bottle and just have him it like that xxx

Still trying to wrap my head around all this. Told my boyfriend. He’s just as anxious as i am. Ahhhh.
I just can’t win tonight! Was going to make Eliana a bottle and dropped the cereal bent down to pick it up forgetting I had an open bottle with formula in it and the bottle spilled all in my carpet 🤦🏻♀️ And before anyone adds any smart comments... yes I put cereal in my almost 4 month olds bottles! No it’s not to make her “sleep longer” but to help with her reflux! If you don’t like it just keep scrolling 🤷🏻♀️
I wouldn't bother about sterilising now. In America, they never sterilise bottles xx
