I want to be able to give DS a bottle of expressed milk. I have a microwave steam steriliser. The instructions say that if I don't open the steriliser then it keeps the contents sterile for 24 hours.
When it has finished sterilising then everything inside the steriliser is obviously wet and full of water droplets etc. I assume that I can't use the bottle and pump like this as the water from the steriliser will mix with the milk. However, to let the bottles etc dry properly I need to open the steriliser and let them air dry, which will obviously take some time. Am I supposed to let everything air dry before use? Does it matter that none of it will then be sterile? Can I use all the stuff when it's still damp and full of water droplets? Am I ridiculously over thinking this and need a slap (PFB)?
