I might have an idea for another easier way to make a bottles during the night. Why don’t you boil water in advance and store it in a thermos flask? The flasks claim to keep it warm for 24 hours so all you’d need to do is pour into sterilser bottles and add formula. However I am probably not the best person to take an advice from as I am using a prep machine xx

@andrewsmom04 They say putting boiled water in a flask keeps it hot for a good few hours though xx

@megan-leigh no I know that hun xx

@andrewsmom04 5 minutes or so but it's critical that the water is a certain hotness as the formula isn't sterile! Xx

I used to make them up at night. It was my midwife gave me the idea. Fill 1/2 - 3/4 of the bottle with boiled water. Stick in the fridge in the evening to cool and when baby needs a feed fill the rest with boiled water add appropriate scoops of milk and the bottle is done. Example baby takes 3oz. Fill 2 oz of boiled water, stick in th fridge then when it’s bottle time add 1 oz of boiled water 3 scoops of milk and done 😊

@megan-leigh How long does that usually take cause Lucas is always starving hungry when he wakes up xx

I always make them up fresh and cool them Down in a jug of cold water from the fridge. But my formula is always measured out ready in little cup things x
