About Sterilizing Baby's Bottles


Rupanya bukan semua orang aware pasal kepentingan untuk sterilise bottle.
Ada yang kata tak perlu, ada yang kata tak payah selalu, ada yang kata untuk certain periods sahaja.


At first, we both also no nothing about sterilizer.
Ada dalam checklist tapi sampai Allysha lahir pun tak beli-beli lagi.


Thanks to Suffi and Hilmee.
Suffi tanya "ada sterilizer tak?" Aku tanya dia balik, "perlu ke?"
"Wei perlu la..penting la..sebab..bla bla bla..takpe aku bagi for Allysha's present"


Now, we fully utilize the thing. We use it almost everyday.
But honestly i leave it to my husband. Mommy Allysha memang tak pernah sterilise botol anak sebab papa dia akan make sure Allysha guna botol yang dia dah sterilize sahaja.


Kalau up to 6 month dulu, sterilize everyday.
Sekarang, every 2 days.
After 1 year, tak payah sterilize pun takpe.


Why do we need to sterilise?

Sterilising helps protect your baby against germs and infection. Harmful bacteria grow quickly in milk. This is an illness similar to food poisoning, which can cause vomiting, diarrhea and subsequent dehydration.

During their first year of life, babies are at their most vulnerable to viruses, bacteria and parasitic infections. Before sterilization was the norm, thousands of infant deaths were caused by this condition.

Ada jugak yang kata, dulu-dulu tak payah pun sterilise bagai.
Yela dulu-dulu baby tak terdedah sangat kat germs / bacteria cam sekarang.
Tengok la berita berapa banyak penyakit yang meibatkan baby / kanak-kanak,
pastu cepat merebak kan..

How long will we need to use a sterilizer?

Continue to sterilise your baby’s bottle feeding equipment for at least his first year. You may think sterilising is rather pointless when your baby is putting all sorts of things in their mouth. However, your baby's immune system is still developing and it's easy for him to pick up infections during his first years. The bugs that stick to milk curds in partly cleaned bottles can be particularly nasty.


By the time your baby is one year old he'll have started to produce his own antibodies and be more resistant to harmful germs. However, it's a good idea to carry on sterilising bottles, dummies and teats until your baby stops using them.

How to sterilise?


Traditional/ modern way.
Kalau traditional tu, cam dulu-dulu lah kena rebus barang-barang tu selama beberapa minit.


Tapi sekarang, kita pakai sterilizer.
There's many choices of sterilizer in the market nowadays.
Tapi function sama je. So beli yang biasa-biasa pun takpe, asalkan ada.


Kami guna cap Little Bean.


We are so lucky, warmer pun orang bagi as a present.
Thanks to Kak Shima our ex officemate.


Tapi kalau beli set Sterilizer + warmer ni, price range dalam RM159- RM169 je..
So worth to have it both.

mintak tolong belikan sterilizer, so i will search for Little Bean as well.
