how to use carobel??

[michelle82]

Looking for some advice from any ladies that have used or currently use carobel.......

I premake my bottles and am not sure when I should add the carobel as it says it thickens for up to 15 mins after adding it??

Leo was on gaviscon, I added that when I took the bottle out of the fridge, before heating, not sure if I should do the same with the carobel?

I just have visions of it ending up so thick that he can't get any of his milk!

I'm using avent bottles, with no 2 teats at the moment, not sure wether to change to no 3 or use the variflows again??

Thanks ladies

hi hun
I added it to the bottle when i made it, changed LO's bum and then we were ready to go. If you are also using gaviscon i would only add half a scoop as the milk may get FAR to thick, and you may end up with a reflux AND constipated baby!

I used size 3 TT teats with no problems.

Thanks for that,

I'll give that a try.

Going to stop the gaviscon as its making him constipated and not doing much for the sickness anyway.

Think i'll move him up to no 3 teats, don't really want to use the variflows again, they were a nightmare the last time I tried them.
