If he is still under 12 months i would xx

I don't, but that's my personal choice. I'd be sterilising things nonstop all day if I did.
thats what i was thinking and some toys are to big to steralise or has batterys so cant but also dont want him getting ill aha

I think as long as you're using common sense and following basic hygiene all will be OK. You are able to wean from 4 months (if advised) and the spoons and plates, food etc aren't sterilised.

Think its all just advice anyway x

But then again what can i say cause i never with my first lol xx

@Chloe Haha same here and he's made it to 5 years old so can't have done much harm 🤣 xx

haha you know same here!xx

If your worried I just used anti bacterial wipes to wipe things over as it kills most bacteria and then they are safer than not cleaned at all! Did this with my 6 year old son and plan to again when little girl is interested in toys

I use Milton wipes on the toys that can't be washed/sterilised

Milton wipes! I wouldn’t worry too much about doing it all the time but just give them a quick wipe over before they use the toys as and when, to keep any bacteria at bay x
