Cows Milk

We only have cows milk (7oz) for bedtime. I warm it up in our hotel Chocolat Velvetiser for 1 minute. Yet to be out for his bedtime feed.

Microwave for 45 seconds but always go the wrist check before giving it x

Haven’t give it when out as only in morning and bedtime x

I give 6oz and warm it for 30 seconds in the microwave. She doesn’t have milk when out and about, only first thing and bedtime

We put it in a bowl of hot water for around 3/4 mins x

Since my mom first took me to the pediatrician almost 30 years ago and still to this day with my own daughter, we’ve been told to NEVER microwave formula or milk before giving it to a baby because you truly cannot tell how hot it is inside, even when checking on your wrist. The best method would be to give yourself a few extra minutes before you need to give the milk to your little one so that you can leave the bottle or cup sitting in a bowl or pot of hot water.

We have a pot that retains heat really well so we’ve kept it over the decades and don’t use it for anything else. We turn the hot water on and let it heat up completely, fill the pot until it’ll go about halfway up whatever bottle or cup is going to sit in it, and then leave the drink sitting there for at least 5-10 minutes. You can leave it longer if you’re not ready to use it, but better to give yourself too much time than not enough and end up with a screaming, hungry baby. It ends up at the perfect room temperature.
