When do I stop using the cold water method for my baby's bottles, is it 6 months?


A I am not entirely sure what you mean by ‘cold water method’. I am presuming you mean boiling the water for making up your babies bottles and then letting it cool down or you could mean cold water sterilizing.

The answer is the same for both these possibilities; the recommended age is still 12 months not 6 months. I hope that has answered your question.
