Best way to prepare bottles on holiday

7 replies

I’m going on holiday soon with 4 month old and I’m wondering the best way to make his bottles.
Has anyone taken the perfect prep abroad with them? Or I was thinking I could buy the Nuby rapid cool and make all the bottles that way, I usually take ready made formula out with me at home but could get use out of the rapid cool if I start using that on the go once we are back so wouldn’t just be buying it for the holiday . Any other options I’m missing?

At that age we took ready made formula for ease

We also took ready made formula in 200ml bottles and actually bought a box of disposable sterile teats which just screwed on the top. Super handy when on the move.

We recently went to Mexico with my 6month old
We took the Milton cold water steriliser, Milton tablets, bottle brush and fairy liquid from home to clean her bottles.

For making her bottles (my daughter has 9oz) we pre filled up her bottles with 6oz of boiling water, wait for this to cool down, when she was ready for her feed, in another bottle added 3oz of boiling water, added 9 scoops of milk, (this is essentially the hot shot) shake so it's mixed well, then added the cooled down water to this bottle.....hope this helps x

@MumsDailyNap did you take the bottles of pre filled boiled water out with you and then just ask for boiling water (for the ’hot shot’) the wherever you were?

@Newmumin23 for the trip to the airport, we pre filled her bottles after security, u can just go to Costa etc and ask them to fill ur flask with boiling water then fill ur flask and bottles... but u can take ur bottles and flask pre-filled from home, they just test one to make sure it's ok (they just put one bottle in some sort of machine) I also took 3 tubs of formula which was sealed (they didn't test this as it was sealed) but u can also buy ur milk/formula after security or do a click and collect at boots (after security)

We took a travel kettle and asked for bottled water to make up the formula and fill her flask and bottles, use the flask of hot water to take around with u whenever the baby needs the milk just make the hot shot xx
