Sterilizing breast pump parts: put them in before or after the water boils?
Stupid question - but when sterilizing parts for a breast pump, do you put them in the pot then bring the water up to a boil, or put them in the water after it starts boiling?

I always used the microwave sterilizer, it's so much easier and worth every penny.

I might have to look into one of those!

honestly, you wash the parts, put a few capfuls of water in it, microwave for a minute or whatever the instructions say and then let it sit for a few minutes. It's so easy compared to boiling.

That does sound so much better! I need to get one! I should really be sterilizing little man’s bottles way more often than I do, I’m sure.

I used the Medela sterilizing bags for the microwave.

Get the medela sterilizing bags game changer! I think you can use the same bag up to 8 uses. So much more convenient and easy.

Also here to vote for the microwave sterilizing bags, they’re super easy and such a time saver
