What are the wrong ways to clean the bottle every day?

Mistake 1: focus only on cleaning bottles.

In the impression of many parents, washing a bottle means washing only the bottle body and the whole nipple. In fact, in addition to the bottle body, the nipple and nipple of the bottle should be cleaned, the whole bottle should be completely disassembled, and the corners and accessories of the bottle should be carefully cleaned to achieve a thorough cleaning effect.

Mistake 2: Wash bottles with clean water or ordinary detergent.

Milk has a high fat content, which is easy to stick to the bottle and condense into milk scale. Only washing with water can only wash away the milk left in the bottle, and the fat will still remain on the bottle. Some parents also use ordinary detergents to clean baby bottles, but daily detergents contain some chemical additives, such as phosphorus, benzene and artificial flavors. If these additives remain on the bottle, it will affect the baby's health. In addition, ordinary detergents only have the function of removing stains and cannot sterilize.

Mistake 3: Wash the bottle after use.

In addition to cleaning the bottle, the baby's bottle should also be disinfected in time. Usually, parents do this: after drinking milk, the baby will carefully clean the bottle. But if the sterilized bottle has not been used for more than 24 hours, it is best to sterilize it again when you use it for your baby! Because washed bottles, if exposed to the outside, may be contaminated and breed bacteria.

Mistake 4: frequent use of disinfectants and excessive disinfection.

First of all, emphasize that hygiene is very important. Keep it clean and disinfect it correctly. There is nothing wrong with it! However, some "cleanliness-obsessed" mothers have very high requirements on the cleanliness of milk bottles, but what we say is clean and sterile. If we pursue "aseptic" feeding, it is a good thing for the baby!

We all live in an environment with bacteria, and babies are no exception. It can be said that bacteria coexist with human body, and a certain amount of contact is helpful to the development and perfection of immune system. However, if you deliberately pursue aseptic effect, it will bring harm to your child!

For example, it is not conducive to the development of intestinal immune function, and it is difficult for the baby's intestine to adapt to foreign food in the future; Intestinal flora imbalance affects intestinal absorption of nutrients, so be careful not to use disinfectants frequently.
