Don't they do those sterile bags for breastmilk any more?

My SIL is keen to feed her 3-month old a bottle a day while on holiday, as she is now, and I told her of Avent's sterile bags to express into. Don't they do those any more? Is there an alternative? She basically wants to minimise the kit she has to take (ie to sterilise). Any tips?

yes,
i got mine off the internet quite cheaply, i think they were from www.lanisoh.com

Boots do them...£8 for 40 IIRC.

utterlyconfused · 12/06/2007 21:56

That address doesn't work...
I checked the Avent website and they don't seem to be on there, nor on Boots.com. They were so handy, I can't believe, if they have stopped them, that there isn't an alternative.

Bought mine from Boots store,only about 5 months ago am sure if you rang your local big store they would still have them.

mothercare do Lasinoh ones, at least they did last year.

Oh great, wrinkly, thanks, I'll go in to a boots shop.

Maybe it is 'lasinoh' not 'lanisoh'.Like the cream.

Medela do them. I actually have a packet of 20 (i opened them and only used one). I don't need them now, i would happily send them if you send an SAE.

i may have a load of these still and the avent bottle kit that goes with it.

SpawnChorus · 12/06/2007 22:02

I think it's lansinoh

Twiga · 12/06/2007 22:02

You can buy them from the NCT - NCT sales

Twiga · 12/06/2007 22:04

Should have said the Lansinoh ones rather than avent

chilledmama · 12/06/2007 22:04

Avent stopped doing the bags...they do the disposable/keep for as long as you want cups...they call it VIA. Lansinoh and boots still do bags...I've used both and although the cups are handy the bags work just as well and if travelling/holiday bags much more convenient.

Bought Boots own ones last month.

In America, Avent have started doing a new kind of bag, more like the Playtex bags. They don't seem to have launched them in the UK though. You can still get the Avent bags on ebay. The only thing with the Lansinoh bags is that you can't express directly into them, they won't fit the Avent holder. They are much better bags than the old style Avent ones though. They don't leak half as much!

here are some of the old style avent bags on ebay.
