Sterilising
« on: May 23, 2007, 17:09:02 pm »
Can I stop sterilising the bottles, cups, etc at all? Jaden's 7 months now. Just another chore that has to be done which takes time, best spent doing something else tbh!

I didn't stop steralising bottles until mine were 1 year old.  I thought it was recommended.

~My HV told me 7/8 months as everything goes in the mouth anyway, just to wash them well.  One thing I didn't know until my DS was that he could have water from the tap from 6 months, I had been boiling and cooling water for nothing!!!!!!

Gave boiled water until 18 months i think.  Then it all went pear shaped when I started childminding and the other children were drinking juice, of course she had to have some too!  We had been so good up until then.  :(
