Night feeds help?

[essexanon]

Hey guys

im planning on breastfeeding but incase that doesn't work, whats the easiest way to make bottles quickly during the night so I don't wake the whole house whilst baby is crying?

I was thinking of having a Tommee Tippee perfect prep machine upstairs, are these worth it or a waste of money?

is there any other "night time" bottle feeding hacks?

My SIL had the tommee tippee prep machine and she was happy about it.
For a while she also used to have a thermos with hot water in it, by then she needed to cool down the bottle in cold water.
I've seen there is a prep machine that is much easier that the TT one in making your bottles, but I can't remember the name of it.

I’m going to get the prep machine, my friend has one and it looks good. There are loads for sale second hand on Facebook market place x

Boil your water for 30mins. Put into bottle. Bring up your bottle and add formula scoops when baby starts crying. Shake and serve

We've got the perfect prep day and night machine & I know friends who have also used one and think it was great. You can get second hand ones on EBay so try there x

My youngest is 4 so it's been a while but I used to boil the water in advance, pour it in the baby bottles and let it cool down at room temperature. Then at night I just had to add the powder to the bottle when needed.

Oh forgot to add, I used a little bottle warmer before if the water was too cold.

I thought that the water needed to be hot (70degrees is in my head for some reason) when the formula goes in so that it will kill any bacteria that may have grown in the formula milk (it being a sweet, fat-rich substance so perfect breeding ground for sugar friendly bacteria)?

I breastfed but we also offered one bottle at night - in the hope I could get some sleep. Until we bought the perfect prep it took absolutely ages to make. Perfect Prep was worth the money (although in hindsight, hot water and cold water by your bedside would do the same).

With my first born once he stopped breastfeeding I boiled water and had it in a flask and had a jug of cold water by the bed and the powder in a little pot.
My second luckily breastfed really well and we never had to do any bottles. Good luck!

Ypu could use the already premade milk it's only a case of opening the bottle and pouring in babies bottles I used these for my little one no need to warm them as room temp is fine but needs to go in fridge if opened and not used x
