Sterilise breast pump to bring to hospital

Question

I know hospitals highly encourage latching. But im planning to just bring 1 manual & 1 wearable breastpump to hospital, in case.For this case, do i wash it and sterilise and keep it in ziplock? Then put in hospital bag? IF i need to use in hospital, do i need to sterilize again or will nurse help to sterilize it ? #FTM

I wash and sterilise then keep in ziplock. During my hospital stay, I’ll pass my pumps to the nurses. They will wash and sterilise then pass it back to me (I’m at TMC so idk how the other hospital works). However when getting back, please do check that all parts (especially valve since it’s small) are returned to you else you’ll have to make a trip down again like me😭.
