Just a few bottle and other stuff cleaning questions

I pump into glass bottles which are FANTASTIC but DS won't eat out of them so I also have to wash the Tommy Tippee bottles and nipples.

The glass bottles are sooooo easy to clean. Plastic...not so much.

How do YOU clean bottles and nipples?

What bottle brush do you have?

Also, how often do you clean pacifiers?

How do you clean them?

Finally, if you pump, how often do you sterilize those parts?

Do you have a dishwasher? Everything goes in there, pacifiers once a day.

I use this on my plastic bottles:

Bottle brush

...and it takes about 10 seconds to get the bottle completely clean. I can't imagine why cleaning glass bottles would be any easier than plastic, but I've only ever used this to clean my bottles. I guess if you were using a regular sponge, it'd be tough!

I clean them by hand about half the time because we only end up running the dishwasher every 3 days or so. If I know I'll be running the dishwasher that night, I'll put the bottles in there and it couldn't be easier. For pacifiers, I have 6 of them (one or two in every room the baby goes to!) so I only need to clean each one a couple of times a week. I put them in the dishwasher

Re: Just a few bottle and other stuff cleaning questions

We use TT as well. We do by had or dishwasher, depending on how full the dw is and how soon we need to bottles. We use this brush that is like tiny sponges in a ball, we got it at BBB but it's not on the web site... and a regular sponge for the restof the bottle parts (a separate one just for baby things). it is really quick to wash them. We do use the sani wash to sanitize them every once in awhile.

We rinse off the pacis when they get dirty. Sometimes w/ a dab of soap if they fall to the ground outside.

Can you not pump into the TT bottles to make it a little easier? (pumping didn't work for me so IDK how it all works lol)
