Any other babies struggling with severe reflux? My girl is sick up to 60 times a day and we’re struggling to cope. She’s on aptamil pepti for cmpa.

I currently have the tommee tippee UV steriliser but it takes 60 minutes to dry and sterilise the bottles! How does everyone else sterilise their bottles? I do have the mam bottles but since I’ll need to sterilise dummies too there’s no point using the microwave. If I wqs to buy a milton bucket how long so they sta...
