So defrost it & separate it into two smaller amounts & only heat one at a time?

Ahh thanks for that Saffron, little bugger was went way back into lala land there was no waking him or even getting a dreamfeed in.

What I tend to do is start with a smaller amount, say 60-80ml then if she drinks all that, offer another small amount. There's less waste that way. ]]> Mon, 23 Feb 2009 14:17:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620771&title=ebm-help-now-please#620771 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620641&title=ebm-help-now-please#620641 Author: busyissy

You definately have to chuck it after the feed but did you know that you can reheat the EMB during the feed, just keep a jug of hot water beside you and as it cools pop it back in for a min or so. ]]> Mon, 23 Feb 2009 12:09:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620641&title=ebm-help-now-please#620641 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620465&title=ebm-help-now-please#620465 Author: cuppatea

Yep need to chuck it. You can keep defrosted EBM in the fridge for 24hrs though. ]]> Sun, 22 Feb 2009 22:34:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620403&title=ebm-help-now-please#620403 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620394&title=ebm-help-now-please#620394 Author: AandCsmum

Yeah it didn't take that long & it's only a 125ml bottle.

Now the next Q!

If they don't drink it all, I guess you have to hiff it....

We woke him, 4 hours since last feed, he took 30ml & fell back to sleep.

Good thing is at least he didn't refuse it! ]]> Sun, 22 Feb 2009 22:17:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620394&title=ebm-help-now-please#620394 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620374&title=ebm-help-now-please#620374 Author: Mrs_B

How much is in the bottle? If it is boiling water it would take approx 5mins for about 100-150mls but like Flissty said make sure you keep shaking it so it heats evenly and then don't forget to check the temp before you give it to him. I would be inclined to let the boiling water to cool a little first before putting the bottle in to prevent overheating it, unless of course you need it in a hurry!

I used to heat up EBM all the time by plopping it into water that had boiled in the jug a few minutes before (so it had cooled a bit).
Only took 4 or 5 mins.

Wow that's ages....ok so best idea is to start 1/2 hour before the feed is due. Luckly he's gone back to sleep now...Cooper that is not DH

Thanks Felicity!]]> Sun, 22 Feb 2009 21:14:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620366&title=ebm-help-now-please#620366 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620364&title=ebm-help-now-please#620364 Author: fire_engine

Don't use the microwave. I think I would put it in hot but not boiling water for about 20 minutes, but would shake it every 4 min or so.

I think.]]> Sun, 22 Feb 2009 21:11:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620364&title=ebm-help-now-please#620364 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620354&title=ebm-help-now-please#620354 Author: AandCsmum

Hope that got your attention

I got out one of my bottles of EBM today for DH to use just incase this arvo.

How do you normally heat it up? I've got the jug on so I can just pop it the bottle in the boiling water. How long does it take to get to the right temp, just ball park time.

I know some use the microwave but that can destroy nutrients, I think? ]]> Sun, 22 Feb 2009 21:02:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24739&PID=620354&title=ebm-help-now-please#620354
