It might be a stupid question but how do you guys prep powdered formula esp at night to make it easier and faster? LO demands milk and has no patience, will scream like he hasn’t been ever fed. We’ve always used ready to feed milk. Which is way more expensive and not good for the environment.

We have a prep machine and got one from vinted for the bedroom too for ease, its been well used so far in the 6 weeks little ones been here. We also have the nuby cools for out and about so if we didnt have a prep in the bedroom we'd use them overnight.

Ovhad the babymoov milk now prep machine. It sterilized the water and kept it at drinking temp for 6 hours. Think it held a litre of water.
Took 40 minutes to sterilize and get to drinking temp. But meant bottles were quick to make

Formula can be made an kept in the fridge for 24 hours as long as originally made with fresh boiled water. You could also use the nuby rapid cook which you make up the formula in and it cools it to drinking temperature in a round 2 minutes if you prefer to make it up fresh.

We do the hot shot method now that hes having 5+ ounces. We boil water and let it cool in the fridge. When its time for a feed we will do 60ml hot, 90ml cold. Pour the powder into a bottle with the 60ml give it a swirl and then pour 90ml cold into it. Its basically a cheap version of a prep machine. When making bottles we either use equal water 60+60 for a 4oz bottle or more cold water for an odd oz bottle. X

My son screams like he’s never been fed a day in his life but I prefill his bottles with water then just be so fast and do the scoops while I’m walking to baby I shake it pick him up and stay feeding then go sit down and fed like normal!
