@shannontalbot1997, ah that makes sense. I’ve no experience of exclusively pumping but definitely talk to your midwife or health visitor to help find the best and most efficient pump for you.

@mariapb I have bought the tommy tippy sterelizer and bottles set, will that mean I am restricted to get the tommy tippy pump to fit the bottles?x

@shannontalbot1997, I’m not 100% sure. I know you can buy adaptors for the TT milk bags so you should be able to for bottles as well. I had that pump for a while, and tbh I didn’t really rate it. might be worth getting the adaptors and a different pump. I’m sure I got them on amazon. The medela pump is good and usually on offer somewhere and comes in twin version as well. Like someone said you might be able to loan one.

Really? I always wondered why it was needed x

@shannontalbot1997 yeah its proven to be cancerous too just use a good nappy cream i swear by the weleda one u can get it from boots. Its abit pricey but soo good and all natural x

@shannontalbot1997 So did I, but apparently they're more likely to cause serious harm and have been known to kill babies. But no one would know unless you looked them up or the midwife tells you because they dont put warnings on them xx

@megan-leigh I definitely won't be getting them xx

@shannontalbot1997 baby powder isnt really needed either I never used it myself xx

Do I not put anything on the cot? I want the same monitor as you xx

@shannontalbot1997 No they've been known to cause Sids and babies get tangled in them. Just need the blanket they will use and make sure they're tucked in. And mines BT I think and is reduced to £99 on Amazon xx

@megan-leigh, I used a sleeping bag found them better than a blanket xx
