Sterilising baby bottles between feedings can help kill germs lurking inside.
The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics suggests cleaning baby bottles by:
• Filling a clean sink with hot, soapy water.
• Putting all bottles – including nipples, rings and caps – into the soapy water.
• Cleaning the inside of each bottle using a brush, then rinsing away soapy water with fresh water.
• Using a nipple brush to clean nipples, making sure to squirt soapy water through the nipple.
• Rinsing all bottle parts under clean running water.
• Using sanitized tongs to touch sanitised bottles and parts, and allowing them to dry in a dish drainer.
