Hello! Our identical twins are due by c-section next Mon. We have an electric steriliser. I will try to breastfeed, but I want to have backup just in case and will probably mix feed or maybe just bottle if it doesn't work out. The instructions say that after you sterilise, the bottles are only sterile for 3 hours after the process once the steriliser is opened! We obviously will not use all 6 bottles in 3 hours. How does this work? What happens to them after that 3 hour period - how and what are they "contaminated" by??
Is there a way to store bottles so they stay sterile?
Help, we're bottle novices!
Thanks,
Suzanne
