Please tell me I can stop sterilising now!
« on: August 05, 2006, 14:20:53 pm »
They are 13 months old and I'm STILL sterilising those blasted bottles.  I don't know why.  Lydia and Sam are all over the place.  Everything goes in their mouths, they eat dirt and leaves in the garden.  So why am I hesitating?   :-\

That's all folks!
(Well, maybe another girl if I can convince DH!)

Wendy,
just stick them in the dishwasher every so often for a good steam, otherwise as the other ladies said, hot soapy water and rinse thoroughly :-*
