Already got the dummies packed 😊 thanks @apunini and I've bought two boxes of ready made cow and gate starter milk @lollypops @safiamammy1 so I think I'm more or less prepped now 😊 thanks ladies for your help ❤️
I always take the ready made bottles in with me, i will have a section so will be in for few days so will have to buy 3 boxes of the little bottles xxx
@xkathrynlouise, @safiamammy1 a lot of hospitals don't supply you with things anymore and a lot of them don't let you make bottles up, if you go into tesco you can buy adaptamill first milk ready made bottles which you can use straight away only £11 if baby don't take to breast or your wanting to bottle feed, my OH cousin has just had a baby and had to rush out to go and buy some xx
@safiamammy1, I've just bought two boxes off a lady off eBay. Saved a few ££! Thanks, think I'm pretty much sorted now x
Where do you buy the read made bottles from? I'll buy a couple of those to be on the safe side 😊 @satiamammy1 x
All hospitals are diff hun, so ur one might if u have difficulties, check with midwife and see what she says or ring up the hospital and ask, my hospital doesnt so says bring in milk just in case, u could always get a couple of the big ready made bottles instead of buy a tin of milk if they dont provide just incase baby doesnt latch on ect xx
Well we're hoping to breastfeed but someone recommended buying a bottle in case baby doesn't latch or there's a problem? Someone mentioned that the hospital provides it in case you're having difficulties? Is this not the case... If so I best buy some milk! 🙄 all confusing this baby malarkey x @safiamammy1
Sounds like ur sorted hun x
