Fisher-Price Jumperoo Baby Bouncer Review

/0 Comments/in , /by

Ok, ok ….I hold my hands up, perhaps I was a bad mum for Googling “how soon can my baby go in a Jumperoo?” obscene amounts of times per day for the first 6 months of George’s existence but let’s face it we all have busy lives, meals to prepare, chores to do. Sure, being a new mum is great – it is… but when are we meant to get jobs done? I mean, Seriously?

I bought George’s Fisher Price Jumperoo and set it up well before he could hold his head up and yes I couldn’t wait for him to sit in it so I could get some jobs done (there I said it).  Now of course the child inside of me was also just dying to watch him bounce … I felt giddy just thinking about it – I wanted to be the mum cheering from the side-lines (the couch) “HIGHER HIGHER”

The Fisher Price baby bouncer Jumperoo was a real life saver in our house and allowed me so much more time to do things that needed to be done and George absolutely loved it, there are so many different features that George never got bored. He played in happily it until he was 13 months old and he would have stayed in it longer but I was keen to see it go after an influx of presents from George’s birthday.

I decided to share our honest Fisher-Price Jumperoo Baby Bouncer review with you so you can decide if this item is worth buying or not.

Fisher Price Jumperoo Baby Bouncer Review

Fisher-Price Jumperoo Baby Bouncer review

I was delighted when I got my hands on the Fisher-Price Jumperoo and even though George wasn’t ready to go in it right away I made sure we set it up ready for the BIG DAY! I asked my husband to put it all together and it was very straight forward.

When the big day arrived we sat George in the Jumperoo and he was a little nervous at first, I mean wouldn’t you be? look at it!!! George stayed in the jumperoo a little longer each time as he discovered new sounds and lights and got very excited when he could turn himself around.

George often tired himself out in the Jumperoo, jumping up and down like a kangaroo and was always very excited when I put him in it. I moved the jumperoo from room to room so I could get on with my jobs whilst keeping an eye on my crazy child.

What does the Jumperoo do?

The Fisher Price Jumperoo allows your little one to turn 360 degrees, play music, watch lights and lay with different toys. The jumperoo is the perfect play apparatus for a full sensory play within one product.

Age restrictions and Safety

The Jumperoo play gym is designed for babies from 6-15 months
(max weight of 11.3kg and height of 85cm).

I felt like George was completely safe in the Jumperoo and there were never any accidents (apart from some poo accidents of course…. HIM not me, just so we are clear), I rarely left him unattended at first but as I got more confident in the product I did occasionally leave him whilst I made myself a cup of tea.

Style and comfort

This fabulous play gym is full of different stimulating features which ultimately means that the item is bulky and take up a lot of room, however the new design enables you to collapse it easily which means it doesn’t take up too much room.

The seat did seem really comfortable for George, although his time spent in the Jumperoo increased with age, I made sure I would take him out for a bit every 20 minutes but more often than not he would scream to go back in.

Cleaning the product

The item is easy to wipe down when necessary, we did have a few exploding nappies in the seat and the material can be removed and washed.

________________________________________________________________________________

Would I get a Jumperoo again?

I would 100% get another Fisher price Jumperoo again, I felt that it gave me the chance to get things done in the house and actually made me feel like I had some normality back in my life again.

I felt that George became stronger and more alert from using the jumperoo

Time spent in Jumperoo

In the beginning George spent around 5 minutes in the Jumperoo here and there but as he became more confident he would often spend 20 minutes at a time in the Jumperoo which was great for me because those 20 minutes allowed me 20 minutes for jobs (you would be surprised how much you can do in 20 minutes).

Is it easy to clean?

The removable seat fabric is machine washable and safe to use in the dryer.

_______________________________________________________________Overall Review from MyBump2Baby

Yes, the product is a little bulky and a little on the expensive side, for me personally, the Fisher Price Jumperoo saved my sanity (to a certain extent) I could move it around the house and get on with my jobs and for the use George got out of this product made me feel the price is definately worth it

Reviews from our MyBump2Baby mummies

At MyBump2Baby we love hearing honest feedback from parents on products, here are some MyBump2Baby mums who wanted to leave honest reviews on the Bumbo multi-seat

“This was a life saver in our house, I have 5 children so as you can imagine I spend all my time doing jobs the Fisher Price Jumperoo was a God send” –  Amy from Withenshaw

“I used my baby shower vouchers on this and I am so thankful as I had no idea how useful it would be” Keely from Manchester

“The Fisher price Jumperoo was brilliant for us, Sophie still uses it now and is 1 years old” – Jacky from Grimsby

“The only problem with this item is it is not easy to transport, I love it and I honestly don’t know what I would do without it, Hattie was so needy as a baby and wanted attention all the time, the jumperoo slowly broke the neediness and in the end she liked being in that more than cuddles with me haha” Angela from Kendal

Review of the FitBit Charge HR 2 from a Busy Mum’s Perspective

/5 Comments/in , , /by

If you are a fan of my Instagram live videos and can sympathise when I talk about the diet that started on Monday ended on Tuesday and will be continuing the following Monday, then you will appreciate this post.

I was approached by Fitbit to write an honest review on the Fitbit Charge HR 2. This came at the right time for me as I was scoffing my face but not really exercising. I go through phases where I am either addicted to the gym or addicted to food.

Me addicted to Mcdonalds Hash browns

As a mum, it is so hard to find time to actually get to the gym and for me I wanted to see if the Fitbit is a good way to keep me on track with my fitness and eating habits with a view to lose a few lbs and generally feel healthier and happier without the hefty gym membership fee each month.

Ok so before now, I was very much an indoor type of person, sure I went to the gym but if someone asked me to walk somewhere I would ask “why?” I was the type of person that couldn’t understand why people would want to walk when they drive but since getting my Fitbit walking is now one of my favourite things to do.

The Fitbit has been extremely beneficial for me at work, I work from home and just as I reach that 2pm “how am I going to keep my eyes open” slump, I stick my trainers on, pop the headphones in, press play on my favourite podcast and way I go!!!

Since using the Fitbit I have been a lot more aware of my overall health. I quickly released the reason why I am always tired is due to lack of sleep and I wasn’t dying from an undetected illness (I am such a Hypochondriac). I also wasn’t drinking enough which often made me think I was hungry rather than thirsty. I soon realised that I wasn’t moving enough throughout the day.

So what is the FitBit Charge 2 great for?

 

  • Motivation
  • Challenging yourself
  • Comparing your movements
  • Losing weight
  • Getting fitter
  • Calming Anxiety
  • Being Healthier
  • Logging food and water intake
  • Tracking menstrual cycles

 

What features does the FitBit Charge 2 have?

  • Heart rate monitor
  • Sleep Tracker
  • Activity Tracker
  • Breathing sessions
  • Steps taken
  • Distance covered
  • Calories burned (total)
  • Active Minutes with strenuous activity
  • Floors climbed
  • Move Reminders

 

 

The Fitbit Style and Appearance

Ok, so the fitbit Charge hr 2 is never going to look like the latest Michael Korrs watch, I mean, COME ONNNN it’s an exercise tracker. It is made to withstand the sweatiest of arms and it certainly looks that way. The good news is the strap can easily be changed from “Gym wear” to “office wear” with a simple adjustment. I have a brown leather band for when I am attending an important meeting or conference and my purple band for general day to day wear.

I much prefer the look of this fit bit to other fit bits, the screen is easy to see but not too big either. I did find the watch a little bulky to wear to begin with especially at night but within a couple of days I was used to it.

 

The FitbitCharge2 Hr App

The Fitbit app is fantastic and a great place to go to check out your health dashboard in more detail. In an instant you can see steps taken, floors climbed, activity, your sleep tracker and you can also use this dashboard to input your food and water intake if you want to maximise its use.

I love the fact that in this area Fitbit recognises that everyone is different and everyone has different goals so you can use this section to your advantage to allow Fitbit to help you with what matters the most whether it is drinking more water or getting more sleep.

 

 

Accepting Challenges

I love the fact that you can connect with other fitbit owners and set challenges and competitions. I often take on a weekend or weekly challenge and compete against other fitbit owners. If you want to add me my name is Carla L and my email is info@mybump2baby.com

The Heart Rate Monitor

The heart rate monitor works great for me when I am exercising at home or at the gym and I am trying to reach my fat burning zone. I really like this feature and I do notice a big difference when I exercise with my tracker as I always push myself to meet the zone I need to be in.

Sleep Tracker

My friends think I am lazy because I like to have a nap when I get the chance but lone behold since owning the Fitbit charge 2 I noticed that I only get around 5 – 6 hours sleep a night which is definitely not enough. I often work in to the early hours of the morning. I have now set a minimum sleep target of 7 hours to ensure I feel better – I am struggling to stick to it but I have definitely improved.

Activity Tracker

I love the fact that you can track different types of activity and not just steps. You can now track running, walking, hiking, biking, elliptical workouts and weight lifting sessions. You can select which ones you are more likely to use on the app.

Step Tracker

I did have a slight issue one day with the step tracker, I decided to do an extra-long walk which was around 7 miles in total, however I noticed that during the walk some of my steps weren’t recording. When I got home it said I had only walked 3,000 steps all day and I really wasn’t sure what had happened, after some research I did notice that my band wasn’t as tight as it should have been and I had worn the fit bit charge 2 in the shower that morning which is also a big NO, NO!!! THE FITBIT IS NOT WATERPROOF, I REPEAT THE FITBIT IS NOT WATERPROOF!! It never did it again – I did the same walk another time and it measured around 12,000 steps that day which seemed right.

Breathing

As some of you know, I get the occasional bout of anxiety and I have been told numerous times “it’s all about the breathing”, it often occurs at night and is tied in with over thinking and worrying about things I have zero control over. I have started using the breathing feature at night and it has been brilliant at calming me down and just chilling me out.

Battery Life

The battery life on the Fitbit Charge 2 is supposed to be 5 days but for me it needs to be charged every 4 days which is still a good amount.

 

Fit Bit Charge 2 review summary

I actually love this Fitbit so much and I am so glad I got the opportunity to try and test it. I was gutted that it was not waterproof but I know there are other Fitbits out there on the market that are. I did have that one day with the Fitbit where my steps didn’t tally up but as mentioned, I had been in the shower with it and I didn’t have it on as tight as normal, nonetheless it was bloody annoying. I didn’t experience any other issues with the FitBit charge 2 and it hasn’t happened since.

I do find it annoying that the fitbit is not shower proof, I have often forgot to put it back on and missed a whole day or tracking.

Has the Fitbit Charge 2 been successful with my goals?

Yes, I have lost 7lbs using the Fitbit and simply walking more. I haven’t really been to the gym much whilst I have been walking due to lack of time and how busy I have been but walking has been great for my mind as well as my body.

Would I cancel my gym membership?

No, walking is great and I really do enjoy it but I still love going to the gym for a good spin class. I love the fact that I can use the Fitbit to track other exercises as well as walking. If you are happy exercising out of the gym you could definately cancel your membership and I do feel the fitbit is a great way to monitor your health and progress.

The Bumbo Multi-Seat Review

/1 Comment/in , , /by

The Bumbo Multi seat was definitely a product I massively underestimated. I got the Bumbo seat when I was pregnant and when you are pregnant with your first baby you struggle to imagine having a baby in your arms, let alone having a 5-month old little monster sat in an actual seat.  I decided to write up the Bumbo Multi-Seat review for other mums and dads looking for a reliable seat that can be used from an early age.

MyBump2Baby’s Bumbo Multi-Seat Review

OK OK – I hold my hands up now; I admit it – “I underestimated how much use I would get out of this fantastic seat” THERE I SAID IT!! The fact it was lightweight and small in size meant it was mega easy to transport and it ended up coming everywhere we went. There is so many great features and benefits to the Bumbo Multi seat.

The Bumbo Multi-Seat Review

3 in 1 Seat

The 3 in 1 seat means it can be used as a floor seat, a booster seat or a feeding chair. It has fully adjustable height & strap settings to ensure it is not only safe but has a longer lifeline than other baby products.

Removable Tray

The seat comes with a fully removable tray which is handy depending on what activity you are using it for. George had a toy that used to stick to the tray and he sat happily for ages playing with it. It was really handy when I was trying to cook dinner or trying to catch up on a few household chores.

OOO Secret Compartments

Don’t you just love secret compartments – I honestly am like a child myself. The Bumbo has a handy storage unit under the seat, this is where I often put wipes and a bib.

Length of Life

The seat can be used from 5 months – 3 years (we did use it at around 4 months old as that is when George began weaning) George still uses the seat now and he has just turned 2, it is extremely easy to clean and we often transported the lightweight seat from place to place. We used this as George’s highchair for a long time as it doesn’t take up much space. The seat lasts a very long time and has a removable foam cushion for when your baby gets older which means you really do get your money’s worth.

Easy to Clean

I loved how easy the seat was to clean and I always wiped it down with a baby wipe straight after use.

 

Safety Straps

There are two retractable straps built in to the side of the seat which means that when you’re ready to take it from floor seat to booster, all you need to do is just pull them out and clip them around the adult chair.

_______________________________________________________________________________–

Safety Tips

  • We recommend that you always use with restraint belt
  • If you’re using as a booster seat, safety fasten using the straps to ensure the seat is completely safe.
  • Always use with adult supervision.

Reviews from MyBump2Baby mummies

At MyBump2Baby we love hearing honest feedback from parents on products, here are some MyBump2Baby mums who wanted to leave honest reviews on the Bumbo multi-seat

“This was a life saver in our house, I have 3 children under 5 so as you can imagine, tea time was hectic, this seat allowed me to cook dinner safely whilst my baby sat happily playing with some soft toys” –  Rachel from Leeds

“My friend bought me this as a gift and I had no idea how useful it would be – now whenever my friends are pregnant I buy them one” Harriet from Preston

“I thought a highchair would be enough for my little girl but she was way too small for it when she started weaning, I also wanted a chair that I can take to the grandparents easily without hassle, my sister recommended the Bumbo Multi-seat and I bought it, I have never looked back. My little girl is 2 and we still use this seat a lot, she loves sitting in it to watch TV” – Sophie from Wales

“The bumbo multi seat is easy to transport and was always taken to the Grandparents house so Alfie could sit at the table with us and also use it has a general seat so he could look around. We did go on a Caravan break and brought the Bumbo seat with us which was so much easier to transport than a highchair. There are tons of colours to choose from too – I loved the Bumbo Multi Seat” Claire from Hull

Dr Brown’s Natural Flow Standard Bottle Review & Best Price

/0 Comments/in /by

Can you believe that almost 1 in 2 babies in the UK develop colic symptoms?

If you have ever had the displeasure of having a baby with colic, I feel your pain. It is truly awful. Not only are you walking round like a zombie, but your little one is screaming like they are in pain and it makes you feel awful and helpless. Colic can last up to 4 months – thankfully it didn’t for us and to be quite truthful I don’t know how I would have survived if it did.

For me the worst part about colic is not knowing what it is and why it is causing your baby so much distress. There are so many theories about what colic is but no one knows and no baby can ever tell us because by the time they can talk they don’t even remember having it!

My son George had colic for about 4 weeks, we tried everything to beat it from white noise, colic drops, a vibrating chair – literally you name it and we tried it. In the end we spoke to our local doctor and he recommend Dr Browns bottles and praise the lord he did as we never looked back!

For those of you who aren’t sure what colic is, read my post on “What is Colic” here.

Dr Brown’s bottles were designed by a doctor in 1996, they are highly recommended to use from birth to prevent colic and if we do decide to have another baby I would be putting them on Dr Browns bottles from day one.

Now here is a stat for you 92% of UK Health Professionals recommend Dr Brown’s Options for relief of colic symptoms in babies.

The vent and teat work together to bring you the perfect bottle. The vent is clinically proven to help reduce colic, burping and wind and it worked for me.

Dr Browns Natural Flow Standard Bottle Review

Dr Brown’s Natural Flow Standard Bottle was the first bottle to feature an internal venting system, helping to prevent colic and wind, and is used by medical staff in a number of different countries.

Dr Brown’s Bottles were the first baby bottles to feature an internal vent system that eliminates the air bubbles, vacuum and negative pressure that usually comes with conventional bottle feeding. The unique design of the Dr Brown’s natural flow standard bottle is designed mimic breastfeeding.

There are other anti-colic/wind venting systems on the high street but the difference with the Dr Brown’s bottles are that the air never mixes with the breast milk or formula which helps maintain essential nutrients that babies need like vitamins C, A and E.

My Personal Review of the Dr Brown’s Bottle

So as you know George came nearly 7 weeks earlier than expected and by the time he reached around 5 weeks old, he started with all the symptoms for a colic baby, he cried for hours on end at the same time every day, I tried lots of remedies and nothing seemed to work so I took him to our family doctors. The doctor recommended that I introduce George to Dr Browns bottles. The first day or two things continued with the colic and then sure enough it slowly stopped. I had also introduced gripe water before feeds too.

The Negatives of Dr Browns Bottles

I bought the Tommee Tippee closer to nature steriliser which I absolutely loved by the way – you can read my review here, I did however struggle fitting the Dr Brown bottle neatly in the steriliser as it is very bulky and also has a lot of parts to it. The actual bottle went in the steriliser but you could only fit in a couple of bottles at a time instead of the usual 6 that I usually fit in.

Who is the Dr Brown’s Natural Flow Standard Bottle suited to?

I think the Dr Browns bottles are suited to any parents who want to do their best to avoid colic. I think the Dr Browns bottles played a huge part in stopping Colic for us but as mentioned I did try it alongside Gripe water. I will definitely use the Dr Browns Natural Flow Standard Bottles if I have another child.

MyBump2Baby summary

The Dr Brown’s Natural Flow Standard Bottle is a popular anti-colic bottle, which is well made, but can be a little bit of a fiddle to clean but for me, I would recommend it massively as it worked us. The bottles are not cheap but are they worth the price? For me 1000% yes. Initially I just bought a pack of 3 as I wanted to make sure that George was happy feeding from them and then I bought a couple more. We kept him on those bottles until we began weaning him at around 4 months (he was a very hungry baby).

Tommee Tippee Sangenic Tec Nappy Disposal Bin Review & Best Price

/0 Comments/in /by

So I am quite possibly the untidiest human on earth but when I was pregnant I convinced myself I would make a conscious effort to be tidy and be more organised, I promised myself and my husband that all nappies will go straight in the grey bin outside and that would be that, but who was I kidding. When my son was around a month old and the house was full of nappies when people came round, I decided now was the time to invest in 2 nappy bins (one for upstairs and one for downstairs and yessss I am THAT messy).
I had carried out a lot of research on the best and most hygienic storage system for storing my babies’ dirty nappies until it was time to take a trip to the grey bin. After a lot of research, I found the Tommee Tippee Sangenic Tec Nappy Disposal Tube.

The Tommee Tippee Sangenic Tec Nappy Disposal Tube provides secure and hygienic storage for all your dirty nappies, saving you trip after trip to the outside bin which is great especially in winter. The great thing about the Tommee Tippee Sangenic Tec Nappy Disposal Tube that it Twists and wraps each nappy to lock in odour. The antibacterial film kills a massive 99% of germs on contact. It 100 times more effective at odour protection than nappy sacks. It comes with one pre-loaded film cassette and holds up to 28 nappies at one time (based on using size 1 nappies (2-5kg)).

The Tommee Tippee Sangenic Tec Nappy Disposal Tube comes in a range of colours so that it can match your décor in each room which is great. I can’t speak highly enough of this wonderful product.

So How Does it Work?

The nappy bin comes with a cassette, the cassette is placed in to the bin and a knot is tied at the end. All you need to do is open the bin, place the nappy inside and use the leaver inside to spin the nappy in to the locked back – Simple.

 

 

 

 

 

 

To empty the bin all you need to do is open the bin and seperate the full bags from the remaining cartridge and take them outside to the bin… IT IS THAT SIMPLE!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

What to keep an eye on

As with all bins it can get a little … lets say messy… especially when you are dealing with babies poop. So you may find you need to clean the bin a little as you go, all I do is keep some antibacterial wipes by the bin and then wipe the bin down as I go.

The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Electric Steam Sterliser Review

/1 Comment/in /by

Carla’s Honest Review & Best Price on The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Electric SteamTommee Tippee Sterilser Review & Best Price Sterliser

People used to tell me how difficult and time consuming sterilising bottles could be, then a friend of mine introduced me to her Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Electric Steam Sterliser. I was fascinated and after seeing it work and I decided that this was the sterliser for me.

The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Electric Steam Sterliser has a stylish look with an oval shape which means it takes up less space on your kitchen side but it still has enough space inside to hold 6 closer to nature bottles, teats and domes, which fit in to the purpose-built slots perfectly

So How Does It Work?

The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Electric Steam Sterliser is very quick and extremely easy to use. All you need to do is add 80ml of water to the bottom of the steriliser (there is an 80ml line marked on Tommee Tippee bottles) you then close the lid and then push the button on the front. The button glows orange when the steriliser is switched on and goes off automatically when the cycle is finished five minutes later. You must allow an additional 3 minutes cooling time before lifting the lid. The bottles then stay sterile for a full 24 hours as long as the lid remains closed – so you could turn it on before bed, and have clean bottles at the ready in the morning.

What I Love About It

  • The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Electric Steam Sterliser is BPA free which means that you do not have anything to worry about in terms of cleaning the bottles safely and easily.
  • Being a new mummy is very tiring and I found it a huge advantage that the use of the machine is not only a quick process but that the machine also turns itself off.
  • When removing bottles from the machine the lid can be removed and used as a tray to keep the items sterile, which I personally found very useful.
  • The steriliser is really simple to take apart and clean afterwards.
  • The steriliser comes in a range of different colours to suit your kitchen.

What to Keep an Eye On

  • It is easy to use this machine when you are in a hurry but you must remember that the machine takes 5 minutes to run its cycle and an additional 3 minutes for the machine to cool. The bottles and teats can be extremely hot if taken out before.
  • The ideal bottles for this steriliser are those with a wide-neck design. Of course the Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature bottles fit perfectly but Philips AVENT bottles also fit this machine very well too.
  • Tommee Tippee advises to descale your machine every four weeks, using a descaler specifically designed for electric sterilisers

Carla’s Final Verdict

It is so easy to get side tracked as a new mummy or daddy and the fact that this sterliser is not only quick but it turns itself off is a massive positive. The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Electric Steam Steriliser holds up to six bottles and is smartly designed. It is best suited to parents using wide necked bottles.

Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep Machine Review & Best Price

/0 Comments/in /by

Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep Machine Review & Best Price

Forget buying a pram or moses basket… if you are going to buy one thing then this machine is it.

Today I am writing about the Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep Machine because quite frankly… it saved my life and my marriage. I cannot praise this machine enough. My son is now 8 months old and I still use this machine every day. This machine was the best item I bought. If you are looking for the perfect gift to buy expectant parents … THIS IS IT.

When I first found out that I was going to be a mummy, forget the birth and contractions… the thing that scared me the most is the thought of the night feeds…. I am the type of person that cannot function without sleep and I wondered how I would ever cope. When you are pregnant, you do find that many people like to tell you how difficult being a parent is… I would constantly get told about how difficult night feeds are and how they would make up a bottle and then have to wait for it to cool down whilst the baby is screaming. I was truly terrified and then I was told about the wonderful invention that is the “Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep Machine”.

Tommee Tippee is a well-known brand for baby feeding accessories and it is one of the most loved and trusted brands in the baby world.

“So, what is this Machine” you ask? Basically this amazing machine makes up a ready-to-drink bottle in literally 2 minutes. Can you believe it… Impossible you say??? I thought the same but ITS TRUEEEEEEE.

This is a great buy for any parent who want to make up baby’s bottles quickly and accurately. It is aimed at parents who are ready to make the move to formula milk.

Looking to buy the Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep machine for the best available price? MyBump2Baby compares the pricess below across all the major retailers daily to bring you the cheapest priced Perfect Prep Machine.

Life Saving Machine.

Being a new mummy is hard enough but I honestly don’t know how I would have survived without this machine. What makes this machine even better is the fact that the filter system removes any impurities from the water and the first shot of water which is boiling kills any potential bacteria that could be in the formula milk. The filter does need replacing on average once every 3 months. My son is now nearly 8 months old and I still use this machine every day. I also use it to make up his porridge which is much easier than boiling the kettle then waiting for it to cool down. Another added benefit of this machine is that it fits any bottles therefore you do not have to use Tommee Tippee bottles with this machine. It also comes in a range of different colours to suit your decor. If you are nipping out, you can make up a bottle using the prep machine before you go and the milk stays fresh for 2 hours.

How does it work?

This machine is so easy to use.

Firstly you must fill the tank with cold water

Then select how many ounces you want to make up by using the dial

You then place the bottle on the stand and press the start button and then a shot of boiling water will pour in to the bottle, you then carefully remove it from the machine and add the formula scoops you then put it back on the stand and press the start button again, this is when the cool filtered water makes the bottle the perfect temperature for your baby (always check the temperature before use).

If you wish to see this amazing machine working, please watch my video demostration below;
