my DS is 7 mo and I want to start giving him the occasional bottle (so I can spend more than 2 hrs away from him and retain my sanity).
He's been EBF since birth, and I want to continue with breast milk so will express whenever he needs a bottle.
Do I need to sterilise the pump/bottles/teats etc? Seems some people stop at 6 months, but guidelines are to continue til 12 months? But it seems this is for formula, as that it where the bugs are/can be. Is this the case for breast milk?
Thanks
