Sterlisation of bottles and pacifiers is important for the first 6 months of your baby's life. This is because your baby's immune system is still developing & by 6 months of age, babies are usually putting everything in their mouths and picking up germs from their surrounds...
If you are exclusively expressing breastmilk & bottle-feeding, there is no need to sterilise your bottles as breastmilk has live cells which actively destroy foreign pathogens (germs). All you need to do is to wash your bottles/teats in hot soapy water and air dry! #didyouknow #sterilsing #bottles #pacifiers #babies #babyfeeding #bottlefeeding #milkealryparentingsupport #melbourneIBCLC Want to stay in the loop?
