Last night was the dreaded "Second Night", where your baby is pretty much inconsoleable, regardless of how much you feed, burp, hold or watch Doctor Who. My job all night was to keep preparing formula, and being quite new at it, I did a lot of sterilizing new bottles in boiling water throughout the night.
I'm increasingly seeing the need now and the future for stellar time management. An example of this could be with sterilizing bottles, here I am boiling bottles, throwing away invaluable boiled water each time - I should be tossing some raman noodles or KD in there afterward. Mental note, try this out.
Will and Diana's dirty secret: We've never once sterilized a bottle. We just wash them. For the record, our doctor said that putting them in the dishwasher would sterilize them (the heat and steam do the same job as the boiling) so that might be a healthy middle ground.
