We use a pot for the formula and take a flaskWe have the same system here I’ve bought kendermil too and I have used the prep machine but at night I can barely function so the rest made ones are handy for now but Christ yes we have spent a small fortune on them! What do you do like on the go my friend had a formula storage box and just added it to warm water in the bottleX
Basically just take a flask, pot with some formula in and a sterilised bottled.As loose as her poo is we haven’t had any terrible accidents, it dribbles out onto the mat worst case… but vomit. Wow, she threw up three loads the other night of curdled milk, it went all over my chest and pooled in my bra, as I was in shock and didn’t move quick enough she began flopping her sweaty head about in it. Mr Tango came out of the shower to a crime scenebath for her and shower for me at midnight!
Yeah us too, I kept demanding them from the shop and then yeah when desperate we just opened new ones and gave her them at room temp… I’ve asked my sister in law what she does when on the go because Google is blowing my mind, keep talking about flasks… apparently it has to be hot water first of all to kill the bacteria in the formula, sounds like a ball ache! X
Yep my understanding is that water needs to be 70 degrees or higher and mixed with the formula to kill any bacteria in the formula.I think you have to put the hot water in first to keep the bottle sterile. If you add the powder technically the bottle won’t be sterile anymore
Mine didn't like it...£50 one from smyths she lovesBaby bouncers - is the Baby Bjorn one worth the price? It’s £156 on Amazon and not loads cheaper second hand.
We got a joie bouncer for about 35 quid, does the trick!Baby bouncers - is the Baby Bjorn one worth the price? It’s £156 on Amazon and not loads cheaper second hand.
Same - Joie expensive swing chair not that fussed on. Joie cheapish bouncer, loves it.We got a joie bouncer for about 35 quid, does the trick!
I know lots of people that loved them. They go for about £80-100 on local selling whatsapp groups here! They seem to hold their value really well; the toy bars go for loads too.Baby bouncers - is the Baby Bjorn one worth the price? It’s £156 on Amazon and not loads cheaper second hand.
Oh that sounds horrible for you allBaby has started to scream most nights for a couple of hours at 8pm- how can he tell the time at 7 weeks old
Just what you want when you’re exhausted.
Oh that sounds horrible for you allHopefully it is a VERY short lived phase
That is always so helpful, my husband is also super calm (and I am NOT) and listening to screaming babies doesn’t seem to phase him at all.Thank youI’m sure it is just a phase…
Luckily I have a very calm, chilled husband who is happy to pace the floor with him.
Mine is exactly the sameMy partner is the complete opposite. He has zero patience and can't cope with it at all!
I went out for 2 hours last night and he put her to bed and she just screamed. I was getting constant messages about her screaming
Along with a lot of swearing
Yup! Exactly the same! I seriously considered coming home early last night because I knew it would be easier to sort it myselfMine is exactly the sameIt’s got to the point that I don’t want to leave him with her on an evening because it just gives me anxiety about what’s going on at home! He’s amazing at everything else just wish he had a bit more patience when she cries
Are you dating my partner? He’s just in from work and already losing patience after twenty minsMy partner is the complete opposite. He has zero patience and can't cope with it at all!

So glad I’m not alone in this.Mine is exactly the sameIt’s got to the point that I don’t want to leave him with her on an evening because it just gives me anxiety about what’s going on at home! He’s amazing at everything else just wish he had a bit more patience when she cries
I would speak to GP or HV for advice on that. I will say my eldest used to get a bad rash around her mouth/chin/cheeks any time she ate tomato or coleslaw, it would flare up anywhere that it touched and be bright red, then fade after about an hour, and that eventually just stopped. But eggs are such a “main” allergen that I would just speak to someone for advice on what’s best before goin again. I believe it’s often the second ingestion (is that the word?!) of allergens which causes real problems.Anyone got any advice for allergies? Tried my baby with scrAmbled egg earlier, he only had a small about and loved it but within minutes of him eating it, this rash popped up round his neckhe does have a bit of a rashy neck anyway from dribble/milk but I was really surprised when this happened so quickly! He was absolutely fine in himself, didn’t seem phased at all, had his normal feeds, no temperature and within about 30 mins it had completely disappeared again. I’m gonna hang fire on adding any other allergens to his diet for a few days but would you try the egg again in a few days? I’m not really sure what to do.
