How often to sterilize bottles/pacifiers?

I was wondering HOW OFTEN do you mommies boil/sterilize your baby bottles & pacifiers? I have a bottle/pacifier sterilizer that your pour a little water in & heat up in the microwave. It works great! The only problem I've been running into that I've noticed is that I find myself sterilizing the bottles/paci's at least 2-3 times a week. I have like 8-10 (4oz) bottles my son uses right now. I wash them with baby bottle soap when he's done using them, set them aside to dry & sterilize them when there's no more bottles left to use. I guess I just find myself sterilizing A LOT. Is this necessary to sterilize everytime before every use?

    Yes sterilize every time. I know its a pain but bubs can get very sick from an unsterile bottle. I think its necessary for around 12 months. I did pacifiers whenever I thought of it.
