Cow & gate glass milk bottles - where to buy??

[curiousgeorgie]

I really want to get hold of a lot of the litte cow & gate glass bottles of ready made up milk that they have in hospital...

The only place I've found a pack is Asda but they only come in packs of 12 for 14.99 and I need loads!

Help please :)

You'll probably just have to buy lots of the little packs.

Not glass but Tesco sells them. However I think they're the same as the asda ones you've found.

Just going to have to buy quite a few packs ! :)

I brought 4 packs to make life easier for myself at first.

Not glass? That's better actually, I thought they were all glass.

We have to go away two weeks after my due date so I want to keep the aby on the bottles to make traveling easier!

I only ever found the starter pack you have already found.
Other than that you can get the 200ml cartons (think ribena) and big 1L (?) bottles. I, er, stole a couple from the hospital to get me through the night after only being discharged at midnight, wasn't about to start sterilising bottles. and then used the ready made for a few days while I got into the swing of things.

They're definitely not glass :) ... they were plastic when I brought them for ds 8 months ago!

The only thing is they are really tiny... I think after a week or so ds was finishing them off and I started to make larger bottles. But he was very greedy!

Might be worth taking an empty cold water sterilisation unit (you could pack things in it too!) And some Milton tablets from Tesco.

Then you can sterilise some bottles and use cartons of pre prepared milk which might be cheaper.

And you can also bung dummies in the Milton fluid too !

thats a good point. I ended up stuck in hospital with ds and by about day 5 he was finishing the 90ml ones.

Boots have something similar- bottles that you just screw a pre-sterilised teat onto. Cow and gate and aptimil. But i don't think the bottles are glass.

Oh, and they're about the £12.99 mark.
