Does anyone know at what age you can stop sterilising bowls and spoons? I'll keep on sterilising the bottles etc, but wondered how long you need to do the bowls for?

Any ideas?

Stopping at 6 months makes sence to me. As she was chewing the straps in her pushchair, and they're 5 years old and have been through her 3 cousins in that time with nothing more than a wipe, whats the point!

Thanks all!!!
