The most reliable method to clean newborn bottles is this: After each use, immediately take the bottle apart (separate the cap, nipple, ring, and body) and rinse with cool water. Then, in hot soapy water, scrub each part thoroughly with only a bottle brush (not the sponge used for dishes)—including inside the nipple. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water.
Then sterilize: for the first 3 months, use boiling (5 minutes in a separate pot) or a steam sterilizer. After boiling, let dry on a clean cloth or bottle drying rack by air—don't wipe with a towel as fibers can stick.
Changing the bottle brush weekly and washing it in the dishwasher on a 60°C or higher setting is also acceptable. If your bottle shows cracks, discoloration, or sticking, replace it immediately.
After the first 3 months, sterilization isn't necessary, but cleaning should be done with the same care. Bottles in good condition can be washed this way indefinitely.
