XP: Bottle warmer

I am BF but am pumping a little to get DD used to the bottle for DC.  We have been warming her bottles in a cup of hot water.  It isn't bad but I am wondering if a bottle warmer is worth it?  Do I need to have the one that goes with my bottles?  TIA!

Re: XP: Bottle warmer

  • I've never used one.  I BF #1 and am FF #2 and I've never seen the need for one...we just use a cup of hot water.

  • I had one with DD1 and used it like once.  It was a PITA to me.  Much easier to use the cup of water.

  • I'm bf'ing but also supplementing with formula so my situation is different, but we just bought a bottle warmer last week and I really like it.  It's a first years one that also has a cooler to keep 2 bottles cold.  It comes in handy for our overnight feedings (at 12am, 3am and 6am) so I don't have to go up and down the stairs.

  • I use a microwave--I know a BIG no-no to some.  But why waste the money.  I always check it before giving it to LO.  I had a bottle warmer and it took FOREVER to get ready.

  • We FF with a bottle and I love our bottle warmer.  It is super easy and warms the bottle perfectly every time.  We used the cup of water in the beginning, but I much prefer the warmer.  The bottle is ready in 3 minutes (just enough time while I change the diaper).  The brand is Baby Pro First Years.  I highly recommend it!
  • We love ours!!  We got it second hand for $10 - see if you can do the same - they're overpriced!!!
