Do you really need a bottle sterilizer?

How about a bottle warmer?

not using either Chat Icon

i thought about the sterilizer but once you open it, the bottles arent really sterile any longer. we will boil all bottles for first use and then wash them in the dishwasher (boil occasionally if the baby is sick etc)

as for the bottle warmer, we got one at our shower but I had to return it, the bottles that i plan to use do not fit in it.

instead, I picked up a 6-cup brita pitcher which we will leave on our counter for filtered room temp water - no need to warm bottles this way Chat Icon

No and no. I used my sterilizer for like 2 days.....total waste. The bottle warmer melts the the Playtex Drop Ins so that was a waste too. A cup of hot water to warm and bottles and some soapy water to clean them is all you need. Chat Icon

Re: sterilizers...

I will be using the dishwasher to wash the bottles
And I will be giving her room tempature bottles.
So I won't be getting either.
