To think that Katie (or the queen) should make up formula following NHS guidelines

[ReallyTired]

Kate's decision to bottlefeed is a personal one. It is her decision how she feeds her baby. Like every mum in the land she deserves support and the freedom to make her own baby feeding decisions. However I feel its important that whoever is making up feeds does it safely and follows NHS guidelines.

There is no reason to make up feeds in batches or use the microwave to heat formula. The microwave can be used to sterilise the bottles, but not to heat up pre made feeds. It would be awful if princess Charolotte got burnt by hot spots of milk in the bottle or contracted gastrocentitis. They have a qualfied nanny who surely must be familiar with current recommendations.

NHS guidelines

Lots of mums with two children under two have to manage without paid help.

I batch make bottles, have done with both children and they are still alive .
OP this is brilliant!!

Thanks for cheering me up

Best in a long time, proper LOL!

poor you.

Not sure what grounds there are for deletion. Making a prat of yourself isn't on the list

Just have a laugh about it.

One for Classics this is.
Sorry ReallyTired but is is funny.

Op thank you!!! Its such a nice change from election stuff! Xxx

"I batch make bottles, have done with both children and they are still alive"

Yes - only a handful of babies in Europe have died from e-sakazakii over the past few years. Worth the risk given the time it saves to make them up in advance.

Please please don't feel too embarrassed about this OP. I've had a horrible week, I was actually crying this morning and now I'm smiling. You've brought a smile to a lot of people today. :)

I think it's been great op. Cheered me up a lot.

for you OP

This has made my day!

Ha ha ha ha

I kind of get that it's amusing and maybe the OP really is really tired but really? So quick to judge? Do people just see the word 'Kate' and go into critical overdrive?
I'm really tired and my sense of humour has obviously gone to make itself a microwaved bottle of milk

I made mine up in batches and put them in a fridge.

I also used a microwave.

Five children- all fine.

Pissing myself laughing, I'm cringing on your behalf. You must be mortified, please come back

I didn't even read the article and knew it was a spoof. I'd think the Daily Mail would die of excitement if they had real photos like that.

Love the heir and spare t shirts!!

It wasn't the batch making that caused that minifingers.

Ahhh OP

You have given everyone a laugh - as PP said, come back and take your bow. You have brightened up a very dull afternoon for me.

If the royals were FF then surely the could afford readymade formula.

And making in advance, flash cooling and storing in the fridge is an alternative recommended by WHO.

I seriously didn't think it was possible for anyone to think those pictures were real.

In ops defence the queen does look very realistic. I think op deserves to come on and here and gave a bow. Op you have cheered up so many people. And dont worry its normally me that does this sort of thing! Xxxx

Well that OP will never come back now. Under that ID, anyway.

Bet she's sitting there cringing now. Bless. We've all said and done stoopid things without really thinking about it.

Remember everyone taking the piss is quietly thinking "thank god it wasn't me"

Thanks for the laugh ReallyTired

Of course they weren't real. Who would think they were?
Even though they look quite realistic, this has been done so many times before.

Why can't you batch make bottles?
