Feeding bottle washing with plain water

Question

Asked for Female, 28 Years

Hello Doctor, While giving formula milk for my baby- I just clean the feeding bottle with plain water without washing with soap or liquid and just close the cap without drying the bottle. And every day once I sterilize the feeding bottle in hot water and after that without drying the bottle I just close the cap. I'm doing the same process from newborn stage. Now my son is 15 months. Is it fine Doctor? Please suggest. Thank you.
