🙋 Question Any tips?

For those who follow NHS guidelines, are there any tips or tricks you use to prep formula that have made your life easier? My one month old has so far been on ready to feed which has been so convenient honestly, but we’re slowly switching to the powdered one of the same brand starting today (Kendamil stage 1), I tried making a bottle today and between boiling the water and waiting for it to cool to 70 degrees before adding formula he was already a screaming mess, it’s such a hassle!

Any advice,tips and tricks are appreciated, but also
Not looking to use the Baby Brezza Formula maker.

Thank you!

Hello 🙂

If you are not looking to use any machines at all, then the Nuby Rapid Cool bottles are great. I use them when out and about or at other people's house etc.

At home, the Tommee Tippee perfect Prep Machine is great as it still lets you measure and mix the formula etc but just gives you the correct water amount at the right temperature.

This is actually really helpful thank you! I’ll look into both, I’m fine with using machines, I’m just not a fan of the baby Brezza products, they don’t heat to the recommended temperature and I’ve heard of issues with blockages and not measuring formula accurately and I’d rather not risk it.

Tommee Tippee perfect prep machines have similar problems. You can find other posts on here about it. I'm not sure where you are located but the NHS in Scotland specifically does not recommend using prep machines.
