Hello Mamas!

If you were like me, one of the biggest questions for a new mom when bottle feeding your baby was “How do I clean these bottles, nipples, and strange-looking pumping parts?” What I’ve learned is that we are not living in the 1950s anymore, and boiling your glass bottles is now a thing of the past!

How to Clean Baby Bottles

For me, my doctor recommended that I sterilize the bottle, the nipple, the ring, and pacifiers before your baby uses them for the first time by simply placing them in boiling water for five minutes. When you’re ready to clean all of this equipment, the AAP recommend that you wash in hot, soapy water (if it’s chlorinated water) and rinse well. Or, you can even run all of these items through your dishwasher.
