Dumb question re switching from formula to cow's milk

7 replies

My daughter is almost a year old and I cannot WAIT to ditch the perfect prep machine and start giving her cow's milk instead. Smile

She currently has one bottle before bed and one before her afternoon nap. If I'm out of the house all day I use premade formula (she takes it at room temperature). My question is... what should I do once I am using cow's milk? Surely I can't have a bottle of that sitting at room temperature for several hours?!

I'm sure there is a really obvious answer to this which I haven't thought of

I buy milk if I'm out where possible, or if I'm going to someone else's home I'll take her bottle of milk and stick it in their fridge Smile

We still use the ready made cartons of stage 3 formula still when out if LO needs a bottle, but that’s less and less now. Or could you keep it in an insulated cup/bottle and just pour into her bottle when needed?

You could use long life cows milk.

I've used that for DS when away and didn't have access to a fridge.

Long life milk or use a really good temp regulating thermos

Remember bottles should also go at 1

A bottle like Chillys Or Wilko have a cheaper alternative. You can just fill it with what you need and then pour into an appropriate cup/bottle when you’re out
