Portable bottle warmer for Avent bottles?

Hello
My DS struggles with cold milk when we are out and about so Ive been looking at portable bottle warmers. Found Mothercare and Tommee Tippee ones - anyone know if they fit Avent bottles? Or any bright ideas how to warm bottles without lugging round flasks etc?
Thanks ! x

The prince lionheart 'snap' warmer on amazon works well for the little avent bottles but not so well for the larger ones (you won't fit bottle and pack into supplied pouch) however you can put two packs into the avent bottle bag (rectangular from boots) and try it that way Wink
someone will completely disagree with me now.............

What about a thermos of very hot water and a jug? Most cafes etc will warm a bottle up for you too.

I have a wide thermos ( I know thats was't your ideal answer) which is made for food. The big advent bottles sit perfectly in the top.

Tommee Tippee do a bottle warmer that has a flask and an outer layer that you fill with the water from the flask. Avent have a similar one although I'm not sure it is available in the UK for some reason - I got mine brand new from eBay but I haven't seen them anywhere else. They are both similar in size (I have both and used Tommee Tippee bottles with my first and Avent with my second) so will definitely fit your Avent bottles.

Another idea is the Drink Pod flask (amazon) which is lovely and slim and holds enough hot water for a 7 oz bottle - I just make mine up fresh with one of those as it is often quicker to cool (you can always find a cold tap! ) than to find a microwave/hot water. Can you tell I also have a fussy baby who likes her milk hot! Saved me a fortune on cartons though...

Thanks folks. I keep finding myself in places where I cant heat it up (beach, park with no cafe) so thanks for all the suggestions :)
