Q: How often should milk bottles be sterilized?
A: In general, parents do not need to sterilize milk bottles after each use, but once a week. And the milk bottle can be put into the boiling water for several minutes before using it. It is recommended that bottles be sterilized at least until the baby is one year old. Most babies will have a better level of immunity after the age of one and have a higher tolerance to various bacteria in the environment.
Parents must be careful not to over-sterilize bottles, otherwise it will be detrimental to the baby’s health. The reason is that we all live in a bacterial environment and a small amount of exposure to some bacteria is beneficial for the development and maturation of the human immune system.
