And how will i heat his milk up without a microwave?? Someone suggested making his bottles up like normal minus a oz of water then when he wants a bottle boil kettle and add the oz of water and it should make it warm for him??
The main issue is i don't know how to sterilise his bottles
I didn't think we needed to sterilise after 6 months, I was quite looking forward to sunday for that very reason!
Edit: nope just googled, and the guidance is a year! Booo!
But if you'd still like to, how about sterilising tablets?
Great for travelling and effective after 20 mins and you can do loads of bottles at a time

Weezl, the sterilising thing is 12 months but I must admit once Millie was crawling around eating dirt I couldn't see the point so I gave up, that was long before 12 months so the end is in sight!MFW Start Sep 07 £79484, Now £587740 -
What's the difference between the Britax Eclipse and First Class anyway? I want it to recline, and be comfyEclipse is cheaper and they both look the same to me.
Charlotte has an Eclipse and it's been fine. Would recommend it.kindofagilr wrote: »

I used cold water sterilising tablets in the bathroom sink when we've been on holiday with baby bottles. It worked fine :cool:

Good morning people,
Im guessing A had the same idea as E- feed at 12 and then up at 3:30am, then refused to go back to sleep! So I put her in with us but still no sleeping, just lots of fidgeting and eating. When she was asleep before 12 though, she was kind of sobbing in her sleep (she was def asleep) and then suddenly laughing really loudly? Im guessing thats something to do with the development of her brain?
I just hope she decides to have a nap soon. I am sooooooooooooo tired.I hate being miserable!

kindof - use cold water sterilising tablets. £1 for a box usually
How do they work? I initally thought of them and thought I could fill the sink up and use them but then my friend says they have to be in a container with a lid and something to press the bottles down?
