Formula flasks

I’m new to formula feeding I make bottles up at home but when out & about I use pre made bottles.
I want to be able to make formula bottles when out so I’ve bought the Nuby rapid cool and thermal flask. But the capacity of the flask is only enough for 1 feed without refilling it.

Where can I get a larger flask that keeps water above 70 degrees? I’ve searched online but they’re all up to 50 degrees.

Thank you in advance! X

I just nip into cafes and ask them to fill mine up for me and say it's for my babies bottle , they've never said no and you don't need to buy anything either 🙂

Yes same as above, I just refill it in cafes and never had a problem. X

I got a big Milton flask from Amazon and as long as you put boiling water in for 15 minutes then replace it with fresh boiling water when you go out it stays hot all day

Not sure how much the flask holds but you can do the hot shot method of 2oz hot and the rest cooled boiled water, then there's no need for the rapid cool?

We use the thermocafe stainless steel, gives us around 3 feeds and you don’t have to take the cap off fully to pour so keeps the heat trapped in the flask. Definitely recommend, keeps water piping hot for well over 6 hours for us xx

Cry it out

Has anyone ever actually tried it and does it work.

My LO is 5 months old and waking every 90 minutes in the night. 2 weeks ago it was taking 2 hours of crying to get her to sleep in my arms.

Has anyone had any success with CIO. I just feel like if we both get better sleep we will both be so much better for it. LO is so sad during the day when they are over tired and can't nap

No judgement please I just need a fix

Second hand pram sets/car seats

What are people’s opinions on second hand travel pram systems, particularly car seats and bases?

Most we are seeing in shops new are around £1200 which seem so expensive. I am seeing second hand ones for sale in great condition and barely used but am being ridiculed by family members for even thinking about a second hand car seat, even if barely used. Just open to peoples thoughts and opinions!

Am I the asshole for being nervous/ paranoid when my mother in law has my baby even when she’s just near him?

Hear me out, when I was pregnant she would always make jokes in the beginning and during my pregnancy. Saying, “oh this is our baby” and at first the way she would put it was funny but after a while it seemed possessive. So anytime she’s near him my skin crawls and when she’s holding him I can’t have a conversation with anyone because I’m so fixated on him making sure he’s okay. I don’t know, it’s probably PPA kicking my butt. Also I’ve stated multiple times he doesn’t need to be infront of a phone or tv because he’s 3 months old. Talk to him, play with him, yk. In return in a passive aggressive way I’ve been told that I’m wrong or “unfair because mummy gets to”.

I don’t know let me know y’all’s thoughts/ opinions or advice

Personal one: did your sex life improve after having a baby??

I struggled with my body image during pregnancy so we stopped having sex pretty early into the first trimester. I had an elective C-section and at 7 weeks I felt ready to have sex again.

I am not sure if I just don't remember how sex was before but sex felt amazing. We have been having sex more frequently than we did before the pregnancy and I am enjoying it so much.

Did sex change for anyone else ?
