How will you do night feeds with formula

[kate87]

Hello ladies

This is my second baby and with our first.. he was fed every 2 hours with being so small (4.10lb) and we used a bottle warmer in his room so it was easier than going downstairs to warm his bottles up but now its broken

Baby number 2 is going to be in our room and we havent much space.. i was wondering wether to try a flask the tomme tippee one. Fill it up with hot water before we go to bed and then it should still be warm. If too warm have another flask of cooled water

Any suggestions please

I do that method, it's worked fine for us... We did have the bottle warmer but it was more faff I found.

Congrats on your pregnancy, you must be so excited. Xxxx

We have a tommee tippee flask, and it's amazing. It stays hot for hours. Normally I'll fill it up, one day, and when I empty it the next morning it's still warm. Our LO likes her bottles pretty hot, so what we did when she wanted night feeds was, half fill the bottle with cooled boiled water (she normally had a 5oz bottle, so we'd put 2.5oz in) Then when she'd wake up, we'd top it up with the hot water, then add the formula, which we had measured out already in a formula pot. meant bottles were ready in seconds, and neither of us had to go downstairs

I use the tommee tippee flask for out and about, and used it in the beginning (I use the microwave now...tisk tisk I know but I shake it so hard I nearly burst a blood vessel). Very good method if you can't be bothered to get out of bed even better if you have a mini fridge in your room to keep your bottles cool in xD
