Holidays- how do you manage them with a bottlefeeding LO?
Hello!! Hope everybody had lovely christmases?
I have what may seem like a daft question, but what do you do when you go on holidays with your LO with regards to taking all the bottle feeding stuff? We're thinking of going away somewhere sunny with the LO who is currently 9 weeks. Not yet, maybe May time when he'll be around 6-7 months. Ideally, we'd like to go abroad but how do you manage with the sterilisers, bottles, formulas? At the momnent, it seems impossible, but there must be easier ways of doing things?
Any advice greatfully received!!

As mousenose says, milton tablets are a great idea, or microwave steriliser bags. I used these when we went away last weekend.
Ready made formula is an option but is quite expensive. You could always take a tub as usual and use boiled Evian to make it up. Apart from that, by then your LO should be weaning so a hand blender may be useful xx
Anyway, my very long winded point, is that it is hard to know exactly what you will need, until the time comes, but it is definately do-able, especially at 6-7 months, he may be on mashed or finger food by then (so you wont need a blender) and you might feel ok with just scalding things with boiling water rather than taking a steriliser.
