    Boil for 5 minutes. My DD1 was a newborn in the 2011 floods and we went 4 days or so without power. We just popped her dummies into a saucepan of water and boiled for 5 minutes or so (an arbitrary time I picked because that's how long you have to boil St Petersburg water before you can drink it, so I figured it'd be good enough for a baby)
    We then used the water to do our washing up. I don't know if that's a bad thing, but we did it, and we're all still here

    5 minutes is the "correct" time. Well done!
