reginakoh, congrats and welcome to the mummies world :shyxxx:
As our little ones have immatured system and immunity, would recommend playing safe to steralise after every feed. Milk stains left long inhabits harmful bacteria so after each feed, wash the bottles and teats (remove from cover and scrub between the rims as well) thoroughly then you can leave it aside until the last bottle is used up then steralise all together (save electricity). After steralising, leave the bottles in the steraliser for at least 9mins for a complete steralisation before using the bottles.

we usually rinse it after use and sterelised all the bottles in the late afternoon to save the time and electricity.

i like to steralise my bottles by boiling (that way i know there's no more detergent). If u want to steralise in a batch i would recommend getting a box and storing unused bottles in the fridge (used by the hospital in melbourne).

Hi, I also used the pigeon steriliser. What i used to do was sterilise after every feed then just leave the bottles in the steriliser and dun open the cover. By the time bb needs to drink again, only about 2-3 hours would have passed so can just take directly from the steriliser. You won't need to sterlise again just before bb drinks.
