dd is 7mths and I've been bf-ing, but I'm back to work soon and she's going to get some bottles. I've used them on the very odd occasion before but they've been lying around for a couple of months now, a good few days of that in Milton water that I forgot was there

Is it ok to whack the lot in the dishwasher before we start using them again?

yup
top rack of dishwasher is practically sterilised.
and you dont need to sterilise anyway.

When you think about the toys she picks up and don't get sterilised etc. putting her bottles and teats in the dishwasher will not hurt. You can get a basket form some shops to contain them as otherwise the teats fly around and fill up with dishwasher silt.

or just put the teats etc balanced on the sticking-up wires iyswim

I would rinse afterwards though as I always think they smell a bit of chemicals. But agree you def don;'t need to sterilise
