How do you sterilize your bottles?

Question

Can't afford a bottle sterilizer and wondering how to sterilized everything before baby comes.
TIA

Answer

Just boiled them when they were new & then hand washed or put on the top rack of the dishwasher. Bottle sterilizers are a waste of money and space

Answer

I washed everything by hand or in the dishwasher and then everything goes into a big pot on the stove. Once water boils set a timer for five minutes then take everything out and air dry. After the initial wash I just wash everything in the dishwasher with sanitizer setting

Answer

So do you guys in the US not sterilise before every use?? We do it unless the babies are like 8 months in the UK

Answer

I never did, just hot water and soap 👍🏼

Answer

I just boiled them when I first got them then washed with soap and water in between uses. Except when I had thrush for a week or so; then everything got boiled in between uses as well. Just simply boil a big pot of water and put everything in the pot so fully covered, let boil for 2-5 min then air dry. Don’t know if this is the “right way” but it worked for me

Answer

I always boil them when they're brand new and then just hand wash after that. I have a dishwasher now so I'll probably use that this time.
