It was supposed to be a simple trip to the shopping mall, but when was a shopping trip with a 4-year-old ever simple? Check out our latest article at islandbebe.com, written by comedy genius @cdingli

In the words of midwife, Emma Beck, here is what you need to do to prepare a bottle of formula 🍼

👉Start by always having boiling water. You boil the water not because the baby wants warm milk, but to sterilise the powdered milk.

As soon as you open powdered milk, it is no longer sterile, bacteria can be present. The boiling water will help to kill any germs or bacteria in the powdered milk or in the water itself.

👉The bottle is always prepared with 30ml of water and 1 scoop of formula, the scoop should not be heaped or underfilled.

You need to be as precise as possible. Less or more formula is never good as it can result in malnourishment and diarrhoea, or constipation.

👉As the baby grows, the amount of formula powder increases by 30ml and 1 scoop, always adding more when you realise that the baby is drinking until the last drop.

Who would have thought that so much time in the newborn days are spent focused on feeding a baby 👶🍼

On average, a baby feeds anywhere from 8 to 12 times a day. As much as we adore staring into that tiny, perfect face suckling into a bottle or breast, sometimes we need a break.

A Netflix study carried out in 2017 found that mums generally watch @netflix whilst simultaneously doing other things.

If you’re looking for some @netflix recommendations (in case we’re not the only ones who waste precious time going through titles indecisively), we’ve compiled a list of 4 Netflix mum shows to check out during your baby’s next feed.

As things heat up across the island, we’re getting you organised with all the essentials you need to enjoy summer with your little Island Bébés.

Our summer bags need safety and protective gear as well as entertainment in the sea and on land 🥵.

Don't fret though, @swankyboutique_ has us covered this season.

From beautiful pastel buckets and spades, to fun goggles and strong, gentle SPF – they’ve got sand, sea, and safety covered. And who knows? With so much to keep the kids busy, we might even get 5 whole minutes to relax. ….LOL, as if.
