Cleaning nuby rapid cool

I have a trip coming up and would be traveling with my new born..he is mostly breastfed but I give him formula once in a while when we are out and about. I am thinking of buying Nuby rapid cool for the long journey ahead but am confused as to how to clean the bottle once used for a feed or should I just keep reusing it ?
Not very keen on washing it in airplane toilets .

Im sure u can buy a portable steriliser

You can buy a portable UV steriliser for it called a RapidSterilise. Or you can use Milton. Alternatively you could do the hot shot method and only put water in the rapid cool rather than the milk. Or you could buy premade bottles of milk?

I've heard of people just using a hotshot in the formula, and then just using the rapid cool for the rest of the water, so you're only ever putting water into it and not formula, so it doesn't need sterilised. X

Just cool the water in the rapid cool not the mix of formula - that way you don’t need to sterilise.

Eg. 7oz - pour 5oz in the rapid cool, leave 2oz hot water and mix the formula then pour the 5oz back in once cooled xx

If you use the hot shot method it doesn't need sterilizing as it's only boiling water in there. I just wash it with hot soapy water in the evenings

Ohh I wasn't aware of the hot shot method...really helpful thank you all for the responses

Yeah I’ve never cleaned my Nuby as I just use it for hot water x

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

I feel like just a milk cow

Hi I have a 16 day old via c section, I'm a FTM never having been around babies before as I am the youngest of my household and from a small family. My husband is fantastic with our little one. But ever since I've had the baby I just feel like the only thing I'm good for is producing milk. I feel disconnected from my husband like the only reason he's around is because am producing milk. We were having some issues before the baby and we're struggling it took a while to feel like he was onboard even though he said he was from the moment we found out. I dunno if I'm feeling like a spear part because I'm lacking confidence with baby or because I feel like he wouldn't mind being a single dad. Is this postpartum hormones or something else?

How long did it take for your child’s circumcision to heal and you could give him a bath?

I’ve just been wiping him down with a fiber wash cloth but I just wanted to know from others experience on how long it took

Guilt

Does anyone else feel guilty for every little thing they do? I feel like I need to be entertaining my little one at all times. If I have to put her in the activity center to finish a task, instant guilt. In the car for too long, instant guilt. Replying to work emails instead of interacting with her, instant guilt. I know independent play is good for her but my brain thinks otherwise. Please tell me it gets better, I’d love to shower for more than 10 minutes without it feeling like the world is going to collapse.
