Sterilising spoons / bowls etc

The course I went on said no - just hot soapy water

Nope just hot soapy water x

I'm just gonna use hot water and fairy liquid

We’ve started weaning and I just wash with hot soapy water as normal 😌x

I put everything in the Milton bucket because it’s already there so I just think why not but if I didn’t have that I wouldn’t x

No need to sterilise

No need. The only reason we sterilise bottles is because of the potential bacteria in formula x

no when i wash hers i just use hot soapy water

What is with formala? Why has it got some strange bacteria anyway so odd, I was thinking I could stop sterylising bottles soon. I don't sterilise weaning stuff x

@Elizabeth it’s the way it’s manufactured. You need to sterilise bottles for as long as baby is drinking formula, you stop sterilising when they’re on cows milk x

Can I just ask, because I've been wondering the same about weaning equipment, those who have said we sterilise bottles because of the formula so therefore weaning stuff doesn't need to be sterilised, why do we sterilise Dummies? And teethers? They're going in their mouths the same as weaning spoons etc?

@Amy I personally don't sterilise dummies or teethers unless the dog has run off with them or if they were dropped on the floor outside. I think it's a good thing to expose them to these kinds of germs so they build a strong immune system

@Ebony we are the same here we don’t sterilise dummy’s or teethers unless the dogs had them 🤣x
