Cleaning your baby's bottle & breast pumps without chemical.
Many new parents out there are so worried about providing the best care for their babies, among it they spend a lot of $$ on stuff to clean & sterile the feeding bottles. Some parents use sterilizing tablets, some uses steam sterilizer, some rebus the bottles & some clean the bottles with mild detergent. Those are what being practiced by many parents over generations.
I even saw my own mom gone thru those event on merebus, merendam dgn table and little did we all know that it could do more harm to our love ones.
Yes, this is what many green mommies out there have been preaching. Semua benda tu may not be good for the baby, eventho the bottles will be 100% germ free.
Sebenarnya it is sufficient to wash the bottles with running warm water & rub salt to bahagian yg ada lemak susu or minyak. I myself didn't know about it until la I dah beli Avent's Microwave Steam Sterilizer.
Also there is a much simpler way to wash the bottles & pumps, it is by using this Melamine Sponge by Daiso (feel like sharing with u guys after baca posting Hanz on Daiso ). I've been using this sponge for year utk cuci bilik air & dapur. Just by using water & this sponge, i can remove tough stains. Daki2 in the shower hilang woo..
During my working days, I usually carry 1 small sponge ni in my breastpump travelling bag. So kalau can cuci, mmg la senang. Then at home, I'll use it to wash the bottles & the pump under warm running water. Kalau I tak confident air kat Malaysia tu ok, I akan steam everything in the Avent sterilizer by using air yg dah di filter.
Here, since we got hot water 24/7. Its very convenient for me to be doing these cleanings, only once in a while aje I will rendam the teats in air garam.
So mommies out there kalau wanna go green on bottle cleaning, head to daiso now & grab a handful of the melamine sponge. they come in many shape & sizes. I beli yg paling besar, coz i rasa value for money. Kat daiso, anything for Sing$2, NZ$2...in Msia tak sure brape coz tak pernah pegi. But lemme tell u this, I pernah beli sponge yg sama at Isetan, size very small around size sponge cuci pinggan biasa tu, but at RM9. pergh..tu yg bila jumpa kat daiso tu i shopping sakan tu.

kene cari Melamine Sponge by Daiso plak...Thanks for sharing :>
THanks so much!When u mentioned about Melamine sponge earlier, I was like ???, now pic makes it clearer.Must get one.My way, I rinse with hot water after normal wash, then wipe with clean cloth inside out.Last time for 1st born, I used to used sterilize tablet by anakku, the cold method but since used bottle by MomsLittleONes, stated only need to rinse with hot water, it saved time a lot!It works as EBM sisa oily, kan...now should try this one pulak.
very useful! nak carik gak la..
tu pasal i campak sekuat ati avent i dlm tong sampah kat babyroom isetan pas beli yg baru sbb stain tu xmo ilang hahahahhah alasan nk pam baruu
