things you should know about bottle feeding

1. The right Start….

Breast Feeding is the best start for your baby, but there maybe other reasons why you have decided to bottle feed. Bottle feeding can also be a bonding experience, and your baby will get all the nutrients they need to grow healthily.

2. Bottles….

There are a wide variety of bottles and teats available, in all different shapes and sizes…its important to find the one that suits your baby. You will need some essential items for your baby, including: Steriliser, bottles, teats, bottle brushes and teat brushes. It is sooo important to sterilise and clean feeding equipment thoroughly, and specially designed brushes will make this easier.

3. The Right Formula….

Infant fromula milk is the only alternative to breast milk. It comes in the form of a powder, but it isn’t sterile, so itshouldnt be prepared in advance due to the risk of infection.

4. Dont go near….

Ordinary cow’s milk, goats milk, condensed milk, dried milk and evaporated milk should never be given to a baby under 12 months. If you are unsure which type of formula to give your baby, check with your midwife or health visitor.

Brother Max is made up of a committed team of parents, with over 30 years experience at designing innovative products. As parents themselves they all understand how challenging it can be, and how precious time is. Their thinking has resulted in a small range of products, carefully designed to help get things done more quickly, so that parents and babies have more time to spend doing fun things!

Brother Max believes that what makes their company and products different from the rest are the following points:Three little words - simple clever ideas.

simple - because their products are ergonomically designed to make them easy to use.

clever - because they base their designs on parental insights; their products are “designed by parents for parents”.

ideas - because they are innovation-driven; always on the look-out for parenting challenges which require unique, high quality, reliable solutions.

Brother Max is definately a company to watch out for in the future, their products are amazingly useful for parents, and fun for kids (especially the ‘5 bath toys’), and their products are beautifully presented in simple modern packaging. Once you try them, you really will wonder how you lived without them!
