Nuby Rapid Cool

Just a quick question as I am confusing myself 😂. If I fill the nuby flask up and use this with the cool , are these able to be used 2/3 times before being sterilised? Just thinking for night feeds.

Curious

Does anyone know if the stage 2 (6+ months) formula milk is tastier than the 0-6months ones? Coz my baby hates her current one. I have tried SMA, Kendamil, Aptamil and cow gate. N all of them seemed to be same to her. I'm hoping the stage 2 formula would be better tasting n she would drink it happily🙈

What age was your child when they first went to the cinema?

My son loves Moana! He’ll happily sit through the whole film. He’s 2 1/2 I think he’s still a bit young though to be going to see Moana 2?

Those who have been on holiday with a 16-19 month old! What did you do for milk?.

We are going to the dominican on Thursday, and it's occurred to me that I don't have a plan for my sons milk during his 1 or 2 nightly wake ups! I don't think my room has a microwave or fridge for semi skimmed milk.. do i go back to formula?
