How to make powder formula whilst out - 8mo

[Tagz269]

Hi
I am going abroad to sicily and will be going to the beach pretty much every day with an 8month old.
My lo is on SMA powdered formula.
Does anyone still make the formula with cooled boild water in bottle and mix the formula as and when?
At the moment I make a batch for the day and put in fridge and heat when needed or take in a cool bag type thing however it's going to be MUCH hotter so don't want to risk anything. I'm going with the presumption. They will not have ready made bottles to buy out there so am taking a tin of powder.
Thanks

With my last two children my HV told me the advice was not to make the bottles in batches anymore, just make them up as and when you need them so yes I used to do this all the time. I either would put one bottle with boiling hot water in and then one with some cold boiled water in and when my baby wanted a bottle I would pour some of the hotter water in the first bottle and then the next time they would want a bottle, the hot boiled water would have cooled down enough for it to be ok to drink. I kept them in an Avent Thermabag. Or I would take a flask of boiling hot water and couple of bottles with a few ounces of cold boiled water and then top them up with the hot. Take the formula in the milk dispensers. .

I used to always make up 6 bottles with fresh new boiled water (no formula), add formula on demand (once water is room temp). Never had any problems at all doing this! (it won't kill germs in formula, so that is a risk). I didn't keep bottles once made up for more than 2 hrs (I'd keep in cool bag in between drinks if out and a hot day). I always fed at room temp and now my 18 month old is happy to drink milk from fridge.

Have a fab holiday. I still haven't braved abroad with DD (just back from Devon caravan). I love Italy and Sicily looks beautiful!
