Hi my ds is 8 months old and as he has dropped to only 2 feeds a day i cant express more than an ounce a day! He sleeps out once a fortnight at my mums so me and dp can have a date night(or watch a dvd at home and fall asleep by 9pm!). I had a large store of breastmilk in frezer which has now run out so i will have to send ds with some formula.

The question is - which is the "best"? I would hate to fall under the spell of adverts which at the moment is all i have to go on! Any help and no judgey advice would be great!

thanks

mytether yes to the readymade formula. no to sending cold water. it is the MILK POWDER which must be sterilised not the water.

tiktok - whenever i have used this method the formula does dissolve properly - it's not thick or lumpy or anything.

pink - i never went downstairs using that method. i took one of those mini flasks of boiling water up to bed with me, a bottle with 7 oz cooled water, the avent powder holders and an empty bottle to put the feed in.
