How to descale tommee tippee steriliser

I’ve read you use white vinegar to descale the steriliser but how much do you use of it and how do you do the whole thing.
Sorry probably sounds stupid but there’s so many different things on the internet I don’t know which is right or wrong.

This is what we do- not sure if its right lol but online is a mine field lol. Switch it off and tip out any water- use a clean cloth to wipe the metal part. Add the same amount of vinegar as you usually do water- from a measuring jug. (think mine is 80ml I just use the line on the bottles lol). Leave it to sit as long as you can like a good hour so prep bottles in advance! Then pour the vinegar out and use kitchen roll to scrape off any build up, and then a soft clean cloth again to wipe it all. Then run a full cycle with the normal amount of water, no bottles. After thats done do a final wipe and then use as normal

do you run a cycle with the vinegar on once it’s been sat for an hour?

thank you, I’ll give it a go. No wonder mine didn’t work as I used 5ml of vinegar 🫣 so not much at all 😂

No I dont think there is any point as its just a heating element- bit like when you descale the kettle you dont boil the kettle x

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

My little one is struggling with sleep

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

New born

Finally had my baby girl via C-section on the 18th, everything has been so far. But I’ve noticed she’s very fussy and cries a lot. I’ve been trying to exclusively breastfeed. The lactation consultant at the hospital said I did look like I’m making enough milk for her. She was latching on good at the hospital and now here at home, she doesn’t seem to want to latch at all. She’s been crying a lot and very fussy. I’m just wondering is she’s colic or like maybe she just doesn’t want the breast anymore?

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
