I got given one of these milk powder storage containers by a friend at work, and I have since bought 2 more for my self, as they are brilliant. The idea of them are, that you can make up your babies milk a lot quicker, by measuring out your scoops of baby powder into this pots, and when you come to make a bottle, you just simply pour it in, no need to mess about measuring scoops when you have a crying baby that wants a bottle! The ones I have are a baby blue colour, and they are a small pot, which is around 10cm's in diameter. The pot is split into three triangular sections. In each section you add the milk powder you need for each bottle. My son drinks 6 ...  Read the complete review

I had always planned to breast feed my son but as I wanted the option to express milk I did also stock up on bottles, milk storage pots, steriliser and bottle brushes. In fact I was so well prepared that from looking at the huge selection of feeding equipment we had you could easily have thought we were intending to bottle feed formula. One item I hadn't bought was a milk powder dispenser but I knew of them from shopping regularly in the baby isle at Boots. I didn't think I would have a use for such an item as I didn't intend to ever give formula, choosing instead to breast feed and then give cow's milk. However, when my baby was born a good friend of mine bought us a ...  Read the complete review

My husband and I wanted to get used to taking our new baby out to places, and so we have slowly been venturing further and further, trying to get used to all the stuff you need to take with you, and feeling like we are becoming more efficient at it with each outing. One piece of equipment that is a must for anyone bottle feeding their baby and wanting to take them out for the day or just out of the house over a feeding time. All my equipment in regards to bottlefeeding is from the Phillips Avent range, and this piece is no exception: the Avent Milk Powder Dispenser, which allows you to take up to three feeds worth of formula, already measured out, meaning all you have  Read the complete review

When I had my daughter 4 years ago, it was okay to make up the mount of bottles you needed for the day and store then in the fridge. Fast forward to now and it is not the case and it is recommended that you make them up as you need them as there is now a belief that bacteria can grow in the milk and make your baby ill. My daughter was never ill from the bottles being made up and stored in the fridge and although I did make them up this way, I did always have a little Avent Milk Powder dispenser in my baby bag just in case something should happen to bottle whilst it was being transported about. I did need this on a couple of occassions when I was out because a ...  Read the complete review

Some products are so simple, and easy, it's a wonder why you didn't think to purchase on in the first place. I find this product such a simple and great idea, that I would recommend everyone have them. Now I know people make up their bottles differently-some people make one bottle at a time, some make a few up at a time, some just sterilise the bottles and fill tem wit water, and wont mix them until needed. Well whatever way you do it, these can be helpful. I would say the main use for these is when you are travelling, and you cant make up a bottle in advance. The idea of the dispenser is that you store the milk powder in the sections, so it is already ...  Read the complete review
