Bottle feeding

What’s the best portable bottle/water warmer you’ve used?

I see the momcozy one but not sure if it’s worth the $80 or if it’s just the name! LMK 😌

Comparable drink?

With my first i loved this drink for my milk supply and it tastes soooo good but I cant find it anywhere. Does anyone have a comparable drink they've tried like this?

FTM - Formula feeding

Heyy my LO is 2+6 days and we're currently making formula bottles up ahead of time putting them in the fridge, then when she wakes put it in the Nuby warmer. I am wanting to breast feed however the supply isn't there yet, due to GD and C-section, I have a feeding advisor helping me through it. However I have to leave the house for a few hours one day next week and haven't a clue how to feed her, considering buying ready made bottles but haven't got the money to do that every time I go out. Any advice would be great thank you.

Feeding

My baby boy will be 8 weeks old tomorrow. He is currently breastfed, but I’d like to introduce a bottle as I’m supposed to be away overnight in December 😬 my partner has been trying to give a bottle of expressed milk once a day but it’s not going well so far and I’m concerned that I won’t be able to go☹️ I’m just looking for advice on how to encourage him to take a bottle, or reassurance that it will get better

Nipple pain

So last week I started getting itchiness all throughout my breast every time I pumped. By day 4, I had wet crusties on my nipples. My nipples were stuck to my bra. I got silverette nipple covers bc my nipples juat hurt and I needed something to shield them from my clothes. Ao things got better and I lowered my pump settings down to 2 on stimulation and 2 on expression. I've never had to go so low on the settings, and it's affecting my milk supply. Let me mention that my baby is bottle fed due to a growth she had in her mouth that caused her not to be able to latch. Well right now I just pumped and it hurt. Felt like my nipples were gonna rip off. Mind you im using a low setting. Going to call the lactation consultant tomorrow and hopefully I don't have to wait long for an appointment. Does anyone have any advice?
