How to give baby cooled boiled water?

So…

I boil the kettle with fresh water, wait 30 minutes and pour in to mam bottles. I then put in the fridge.

My question is how long does it last once taken out of the fridge? We are going out today and want to take some water with us as it’s soooo hot!

Thanks 😊

But the question is “can we even give water to babies younger than 6 months of age “?

Oh ok , I didn’t know that … thanks for the info xx I have been exclusively breastfeeding so it’s not required . I was concerned because of the heat these days xx

@Anu your milk will change with babies needs, so will naturally water itself down with the heat. That's why breastfed babies don't need water x

When did your baby start sleeping through the night?

My baby is 7 weeks old. It’s early for him to sleep through the night yet but I was curious to know what you’ve experienced.

And did you do anything special to make that happen?

Travel pram recommendations

Hi ladies, I’m looking for a travel pram to use on holiday in Europe. Any recommendations for ones that are cabin friendly? Any tips for travelling with baby on a plane?

I don’t like my baby today

I have two littles, 2 and 3 months. My husband is military and for the first time since our youngest was born, he’s gone for the weekend for training. This was my first real solo parenting experience with two kids, and I’m really hoping it gets better and this feeling goes away but I really don’t like my baby today.

My son is currently crashing out over bedtime in his room and I have to be in my room getting his sister to sleep and all I can think about is how much I wish she wasn’t here so I could go to my son. It’s not a gender thing at all, it’s a “I’ve known him longer and had 21 months of molding our lives together and now suddenly this screaming thing is ruining it” thing.

I love her but I really don’t like her. Hopefully just tonight.
