On my instructions it says to boil it before using 1st time (so far so good) but then boil it daily after that, then sterilise after each use. I thought use it, sterilise, rinse, dry, put away, use it straight away next time. I don't have to boil it before each use or every day if I'm not using it every day or sterilising it the last time it was used surely? (If this all makes sense!!)
