Sterilising bottles abroad

[Chris1989]

Hi :) I'm going to Alcudia, Majorca for week on Monday with my 3 year old and 3 month old, and I'm just wondering what anyone else who's been abroad with a baby did for sterilising bottles? I've got sterilising bags that go in the microwave but they seem a bit tedious, so wondering if anyone has any ideas :)

Hi OP, i just washed them out in warm water to clean them then left them in a sink of boiled water from the kettle for 10-15 mins, then left upside down on a towel to dry

You could always take some Milton tablets in your case if worried?

Milton do a travel steriliser. It's small (fits one bottle plus probably a couple of dummies) and is a cold water one for use with sterilising tablets. I think the items are OK after something like an hour.

Will have access to a stove? I’d boil them for 5 minute on the stove top.

Whenever we're away we take a plastic tub (useful for packing toiletries and other stuff that might leak in) and Milton tablets.

A tub and some sterilising tablets would probably be easiest

www.argos.co.uk/product/1437335 yout can use this to cold water sterilise or in a microwave

I got a kit from Boots was about £10-£12. Gave u tablets and big bags to sterilise it all in. I used bottled water and boiled it, let it cool think you can just use cold water though.

My girl was 6 months old so we had started weaning and had spoons, bowls etc to do too.
