We have been away to my mums for the weekend and got home late last night. I took the kids in and OH was supposed to be emptying the car. Well I have got up this morning and gone to do Hannahs bottles and the silly git has gone and left the steriliser in the car . Double buggy is also in there coz I didn't think I would need it today. I dont have any milton etc so how will I sterlise Hannahs bottles? If I boil a couple in a pan will that work? and if so how long do I leave them for? I'm a bit anal about sterilising and even more so at the mo coz me n OH seem to be developing a bit of a tummy bug and want to do all I can to prevent passing it to the kids.

If you have a dishwasher then a cycle throught that would b fine other than that if it were me I think I would gentle boil a few in a pan for about 10 mins Obviously keeping an eye Hope som1 else can give some advice soon XX

My mum boiled Harry's bottle whenever he stayed with her, for ten mins, as she doesnt have a steriliser xx

Thanks for the replies ladies I think I'll go with the pan option coz I used to put Thomas' bottles in the dishwasher and it made them go a funny yellowy colour and put me off.

Lol, doh!
I wouldnt worry too much, I remember when I was in a hurry I just boiled the kettle and totally covered the bottle in the water... Aimee was fine x
