When to Stop Sterilizing Baby Bottles?
Some parents diligently sterilize their babies’ bottles in the dishwasher. Others simply wash them with hot, soapy water. Medical views differ on whether bottle sterilization is necessary at all. Most doctors don’t give a date by which parents can stop sterilizing; some parents say that their medical professionals have told them 3 to 6 months is when it’s no longer important.
