Bottle sterilizer - do i need one?

Ftm. The more I think about it, this seems like an unnecessary clutter item since I'd wash bottles and nipples anyways. Thoughts from experienced mamas?!

No. definitely unnecessary. I just wash my bottles with soap and water.

Answer

I don't use soap I just sterilize. Is that bad?

Answer

Totally unnecessary.  It actually weakens your child's immune system to sterilize their dishes.  Even house holds with dishwashers have lower immune systems than house holds without them.  The more germs they are exposed to,  the better their bodies will be at fighting them off.
