I’ve seen people use it a couple of ways but I make up the bottle with boiling water either from kettle if home or from an insulated flask on the go. Stick it in the rapid cool and turn upside down a few times until the log goes from orange to green then it’s good to go. Pour into the bottle and done. Super simple. We also have a prep machine and although it has mixed reviews find that really good for home x

I measure out the boiled water and add to the rapid cool then add the formula to the rapid cool and mix. I just wash it after every use. I believe that the rapid cool starts cooling straight away so be quick adding the formula as it has to be a certain temp to kill bacteria.

i like it ☺️ i’ve never had any problems x

If you use the hot shot method you don’t have to sterilise the rapid cool each time xx

thank you what is this?

how do you use it?

Avatar

thank you. I’m just a bit confused as to how you use it out on the go I’m guessing you have to use new bottles every time?

Avatar

thank you. I didn’t know if you added the formula to the rapid call because that means you can surely only use it once then have to wash and sterilise it each time?

Avatar

thank you. I need to look into it.

Have a look on the Nuby website it will tell you how it works and how to use it properly 😊

chelsea above (the first comment) described it perfectly ☺️ it comes in useful for when you’re out for sure x

where does the formula come in? plus if you have to wash the flask every time if you’re put in the formula in the flask? Also, I’m guessing it means you have to take multiple bottles out?

Avatar

i take multiple bottles out with me, depending on how long we’re out for. i take another flask out with me (a normal one) filled with water & put formula into little containers so it can all be put together when needed ☺️

so you used the nuby rapid cool more then once ? And didn’t clean between?

Avatar

Personally I’ve not yet used it multipul times whilst out out - if we go to someone else’s house I would just wash it and use again - also have MAM bottles so can either take multipul or wash/sterilise the one I have. If I was out for a full day I’d probably use the hot shot method as you wouldn’t have facilities to clean the rapid cool.

I believe the hot shot method is basically adding a hot shot to your bottle of boiling water and mix your formula in. Then add the remaining amount of water to the rapid cool so just the water cools down and you then add that to your bottle that has the hot shot and formula in already. In theory then the bottle is still clean as it’s only had boiled water in so you could use again in the same way for another bottle when needed. Xx

How do I end this friendship

My best friend of 15 years and I are in similar stages of life and her behaviour has gotten increasingly erratic and triggering. I am about to have my first baby and she is struggling with postpartum from her second who was born last August. All the “normal” post partum depression symptoms I totally understand but she has also in my opinion made a lot of selfish choices recently.

She is constantly yelling and berating her husband and kids as well as flying off the handle at the tiniest things and it’s super triggering for me coming from a previous abusive relationship. She’s honestly being abusive to her family.

I feel like she always makes everything about herself and her reasoning has gotten soooo misconstrued. She acts only on her emotions and doesn’t care about anyone else’s. She never accepts any constructive criticism or advice even though she complains 24/7 about everything.

She says she hates being a mom and doesn’t want to be around her kids , hates her marriage, hates her job, and complains 24\7 and refuses to do anything to change. She also makes everything about herself including my baby shower we just had. She’s made rude comments to my spouse as well.

I don’t have many mom friends but at this point she is just not the type of person I want to be around because she is being so mean and wanting to bring everyone down with her. Also I am about to have my first baby and just want to focus on me.

Feeling guilty for co sleeping

My 6 month old has suddenly started to do abit of co sleeping in the night. She sometimes go back to her bed but alot of the time it’s out of pure exhaustion from me that I just let her sleep with me. I haven’t got any energy to be rocking her back to sleep and putting her down with possibly failing the attempt. But for some reason I feel a sense of guilt like I’m going to have problems later on if it continues. Someone put my mind at ease please?

Birthday postpartum

I’m due to give birth to our second child weeks before my birthday. My partner wants to know what I want to do but I don’t know what would be possible so soon. I already get things like facials and my hair and nails done and it’s been made clear none of those qualify as a present for my birthday 😅 I don’t know what more I could possibly do 😅 there’s no way I’m going to want to go on a day out 😂

Feel like I’m solo parenting

I’m so sick of arguing with my husband over this.

My daughter is 11 weeks old, and my husband works Monday to Friday. I look after her all day every day, and on the weekends and some evenings he goes out cycling. I don’t mind this, he gets extremely ratty and stir crazy if he doesn’t go out, and it drives me mad.

Lately. My daughter’s sleep pattern is all over the place in terms of the second stretch. She tends to go for 6 hours, then has a feed, then either goes for another 4 hours, or starts to fuss at about 5:30 am. (I realise this first stretch is a dream, please believe me I’m not complaining about that.

My husband starts work at 7 am from home, or leaves at 6 am if he’s going into the office.

This means that he comes home, feeds her once while I’m in the shower, while I handle all of the other feeds/ settling her off at night. I rarely go back to sleep after as I’m so wired. He also struggles to sleep once he’s awake, so when she fusses for her night feed, he’s up from around 4 am regardless of feeding her or not.

I see him for around 3 hours a day apart from weekends, and in that time I cook, he does the dishes and cleans the bottles. We then bath/wash LO, he feeds her, then we watch a film or show until her next feed at 9:30 pm.

He has gone up to bed early to try and get more sleep because he feels like he’s exhausted to the point of headaches. (I am too, but it seems like this isn’t as important because I don’t go to work. He acknowledges that it’s hard work looking after her all day, this isn’t the problem). I have stayed downstairs with her, because to me, disturbing a sleeping baby only to put her in a crib for 30 minutes after settling her again, to feed her and then have to restart the process is ridiculous when she’s asleep already.

I feel like I do everything. I feed and settle her every time. When he can’t calm her down within 10 minutes he passes her back despite me having her all day and him not seeing her.

I love my daughter more than anything, and my husband is lovely, I swear. It’s just a really tough time with her sleep, and I’m struggling to cope. I’m so, so tired. And he doesn’t seem to realise this, because he is. We have talked about this so many times, but it just turns into an argument. Please tell me this will pass?

When did your child stop taking naps?

My son is almost 3 and just been moved to a big kid bed (out of crib) and isn't napping. No surprise of course with the big change. It took him a long time to get to sleep last night first sleep in there too. My husbands coworker said when they switched his toddler out of the crib into first big kid bed he stopped napping that day. Wondering on other's experiences. Thanks in advance!
