I know I’m silly. I was up all night with my unsettled baby post jabs and put my lansinoh single electric pump (the plastic bits) in the dishwasher. We’d had bolonese. I thought it was ok (in my sleepy daze) as the plates were more or less clear but my orange pump says otherwise. I’ve washed it again in soapy water it is clean, doesn’t smell tomato-ey Hmm but is it safe? I’ve only had it 5 minutes Sad

It’ll be fine I’m sure. Some of my friend’s bottles went orangey when she stuck them in the dishwasher with dirty curry stuff. If you’re really panicking then maybe give them a quick sterilise even though you don’t need to sterilise lumping equipment.

Its fine, but a quick soak in Milton will get it deoranged. This works for tupperware as well

Thank you, I did sterilise it as I always do just out of preference I know it’s not fully necessary
