Just a thought - do you have to heat at all? My little man has always had his bottles at room temperature and has never known anything different. I was never told to heat them up in the first place so never did.
His feeding has always been great and it doesn't seem to bother him.
I just fill the sterilised bottles with cooled boiled water and leave in the cupboard. The formula is added when it is time for the feed.
i dont think has to be i think just warms good but if been if the fridge be nice to have a little warm i did heat with other 2 but everyone has there own way of feeding i must say i was always told to put the bottle in fridge not on bench but in saying that its just water isnt it so its a good thought be intersting to see how many others just leave there bottle filled with cooled bolied on bench & just add formula
I was always told you couldn't leave bottles on benches as there was the risk of nasties growing in the water - exposure to germs starts the second you pop open your steriliser, kwim? Some babies prefer their feeds at room temp, others like it heated to more closely resemble the temperature of breast milk (body temp, around 35-40C), so if you manage to get a bub who doesn't mind either way, that'd work too HTH!
thats true i always got told bout the nastys if kept outside off the fridge i think warmed up is nice in winter its cold down here drops down to 6 & below during the nite & so be nicer to have a belly full of warm milk lol but like you said every babys diffrent too
