Hey guys!
Just looking for some advice from mums (or dads!) who have been in this situation and what you done with your kids!
My daughter is 11 weeks old. Now hat the weather is getting better I want to start taking her for days out. My worry is about bottles.
She doesn't like ready made milk (think it's a bit too watery for her) so I want to make bottles while I'm out. My sister fills bottles with boiling water, takes out the powder in containers and mixes it as she needs when she is out. My HV told me not to do this because the milk isn't sterile.
So what do you other parents do?? She gets sick if I make the bottle up with milk before we go out, and warm it up later on. So I thought the boiling water and taking powder would be much better, but I've been told it's ok by some people and dangerous for LO by others. So I don't know what to do. I have a prep machine at home so I make her bottles as she needs cause it's quick and easy. But being out, obviously that isn't an option!
Any answers would be great!
