Should I just buy ready made formula instead of powdered?

Advice I was given a while back was not to bother buying the powder and just buy the ready made stuff, as it's quicker, less fuss and not that much more expensive.

What would you suggest?

Thank you Flowers

We started out breastfeeding so I'm not sure about at the very beginning but the perfect prep was a lifesaver! We use the powder and perfect prep at home and the ready made for out but if you know a feed is due within 2 hours you can just make one with the perfect prep before you go. I think a 4oz bottle is the smallest it will make, off the top of my head, so you may see some wastage in the first 4 weeks or so but it's so worth it!

Another one who used mam bottles and the perfect prep at home and ready made if out. Always gave the ready made at room temperature. We used to take the PP up to our bedroom at night and away with us for the weekend if visiting friends. It made whole process very easy. Bought the PP for £60 and sold it for £35 on ebay a year later so didn't end up costing us much.
