Breast milk During Outing
Dear parents I wonder other than having a nursing cover to breast feed the baby, is there any way to give baby milk? My wife express milk at home, we were thinking how to do provide it to the baby when we go shopping e.g go out for a at least 5 to 6hrs?
If you want to give expressed breast milk, you’d need to put it in a cooler bag with ice packs, and then bring a thermoflask with hot water as a bottle warmer to warm up the milk. Bring a bottle of course. But that’s a lot of logistics to bring. If yor wife doesn’t mind, direct latching is a lot more straightforward. There are articles on the best shopping centre nursing rooms in Singapore (google it) :)

I pump before going out. I will normally pour my milk into thermo flask. I have another thermo flask for hot water. And I just make it hot. Easier and save a lot of time.
go to malls with nursing room
I find a shopping mall with nursing rooms and bf at the nursing room. If not, I will time it out such that baby wouldn't be nursing when we are out but that is harder to achieve since we are usually out for quite long.
