Making milk outside

[anirutamii]

Hello! I really need help. :07: When bringing baby outside to shop or just get fresh air, there are a lot of necessary things to bring out. I am wondering how do you all organise the stuff to bring out and pack them in the bag. Do you all face difficulties too carrying all the stuff out?

i just dump everything in a diaper bag BUT organise everything nicely

1stly, i bought plenty of diffe sizes ziplock bag.

hankies - 1 ziplock bag
spare clothes - 1 ziplock bag
diapers - 1 ziplock bag
and 1 extra ziplock bag for dirty clothes/hankies...

thermal flask, milk bottle and FM are most impt ones, i will place it near the 'zip' opening, easier for me to take out..

btw i used to carry 2 diaper bags out when ds was younger, or if i brought only 1 bag out, inside sure full of 'useless' things and very heavy until one fine day my fren highlight to me that actually alot of things dont have to bring out.

when i was going out for only 1-2 hrs with ds, i can brought along 6-8 diapers, 4 milk bottles, 6 portions of FM, 10 hankies, 3-4 bibs, cloth napkin (which ds totally DONT need it)...

aft tt i learn to pack lesser stuffs into my pack.. bring ur baby out often and soon u will noe which are the more impt and less impt things to bring along =)

after that i learn to pack lesser stuffs into my pack.. bring your baby out often and soon you will know which are the more impt and less impt things to bring along =)

Why you need to have 6 portions of FM? I only need 6 portions if FM when I bring my son to Japan, cos we leave the hotel at 9 10am in the morning, and he drink 3 hrly...

I agree with you:tlaugh:I used to bring such a big bag when my baby was younger but now, I only bring a tote bag when we go out even for a whole day....Much lighter and also easier to carry around....Can't think of "those" old days when u got to bring a heavy big bag and a stroller at the same time:tlaugh:

Gone are the "days":001_302:

HiHi.. heee i think dis is the thread for me! hah! i got a toddler and a baby stuff to pack all in one bag! all comes in double set.. diapers, milk, hankies, clothes.. u name it.. all 2! Allerhand beg works wonders for me. have tons of secret compartment. I even have shampoo and soap in my bag! (not to mention small water sprayer in case i cant find any toilet and extra batteries for the mobile fan!)

clothes..diapers and all are packed in ziplock bag.. compressed.. and i hooked up 2 individual bottle warmer outside the bag for easy access. Thats the good thing bout this bag, u can just about hang anything anywhere!

Try it out! Allerhand rocks! hahaha and yes... dun bring too many things out if ure on short trip out.. just the impt one will do..

Cheers!

I love my allerhand too....

But i still use wetbag to keep his toys as they are teething and always bite on their toys....

Should invest in a good diaper bag so going out and packing will be easier!

I bought it at BHG. When I bought that time only left 3 leh and having sales... I'm not sure still have or not, by the way I use ziplog bag too, and I prefer it to change once in a while and maybe if the clothes nv use, I'll just leave it in my diapers bag.

One way to help your organize your diaper bag better, and to prevent bringing unnecessary items is to plan how long you intend to be out. I also will give DD a feed before going out, so that she either does not need to be fed at all when we're outside, or just needs 1 feed.

I will bring 2 diapers out if we are going out for 3-4 hours. & if I have to get things done, I'll make sure I do it within the planned duration, ie: 4 hours. So means after 4 hours we must go home.

For me, I *ALWAYS* forget to bring hanky out.

ya i saw from ur blogshop, wat's wetbags actually?? i use ziplock bag cos i can 'compress' it and make it 'slimmer', to save space. haha!!

I think it's a matter of experience. You'll eventually learn what you need and what youu don't. Now, generally, I will have 2 diapers and a change of clothes in the diaper bag, together with a bottle of hot water and a normal waterbottle. I gave up on those fancy containers that protion milk powder cos I can never remember how many scoups I put inside. I just use one of the avent milk bottles I have, fill it up with formula and put a scoup inside. Same with baby cereal, I also use an avent milk bottle for it. Just use that flat stopper thingy instead of the teat for the cover. Makes it so much easier to pack.

Just pack a ready bag that contains:

- diapers and disposable changing mat
- baby's cap, bib and hand towel
- wet towel
- tissue
- anything else you would like to bring for your baby

When want to go out, just put baby's food/bottle and water bottle in the bag, then can go out faster. The bag no need to unpack. Only take out the food/ bottle to wash when home.

Throw the bag in baby's room. :tlaugh: When bring out then bring that bag too.

wow.. this is a good thread for me.. hehe... confinement is over! And i just brought my boy out today for 2 hrs (to try him on car seat and stroller) and rush home just before his feeding time (in between kept looking at him when he starts to move around) - thou I brought along his milk... just scare he will cry.. and we kan cheong.. hehehehe...

so for expressed milk - how did you mummies warm milk up? bring along thermo flask with water and a cup?? today i brought powder.. cos i scare warming up takes time .. we are just scare that he cries... hehe... Are you all conscious of yr babies crying too when u are outside?? but we kept telling ourselves... it's normal that babies cries!!! perhaps we just worried abt the attention we will get... then see how ga-lang-ga-bo we are...
