What is the best bottle warmer to use? (I've tried the search function but can't get it to work.) I want one for both breast and formula milk. I only seem to find the Avent one advertised but there must be more than one brand. Also, the Avent one seems to be very expensive, so where is the best place to get a reasonably priced one? ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

TO be honest I wouldn't bother buying one at all! I brought one with my first and it was great while camping due to the fact that the jug etc was in the communial tent. After camping I stopped using it as at home a cup of hot water actually heated it quicker and as he got older I just microwaved his formula.
With #2 I only used it for 2 weeks camping and then sold it. It was a waste of money for the price! |

We loved our Avent one - you just popped in the number of mls, whether it was frozen, room temp or fridge temp, and it did it's job.
In saying that, only used it initially. The benefit of the bottle warmer was that it was quick - great when you've got a screaming hungry kiddy inthe middle of the night. I found it really good for EMB but with formula I just mix hot and cold water. |

I got a basic avent one off trade me for $15, Floyd was a very fussy feeder so I expressed and he had at least two top ups of EBM a day, was a lot faster than trying to heat it in hot water (like I did for the first couple of months!!) I agree with Bec, I didnt really use it for formula. mine is like this one http://www.trademe.co.nz/Baby-gear/Feeding/Cups-bottles/Other/auction-288600305.htm - http://www.trademe.co.nz/Baby-gear/Feeding/Cups-bottles/Other/auction-288600305.htm ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">
