Flying with a baby

Most airports will let you through with pre made formula, just check the website of the airport you’re flying through. If, like me, you’re a little nervous though if there is a Boots in the airport you’re flying from you can order the pre made formula from there in advance and pick it up when you get through security. Also it seems Americans don’t really worry about adding hot water to powder formula to sterilise it, so I think we’re planning to bring an extra suitcase so we can pack a tommee tippee machine when we head out to the states when our little one is 16 weeks as they don’t sell them out there and I love the convenience. Obviously I’ll also need to get a voltage converter. I sound like I’m going to loads of trouble, but we are heading out for a month and as my husband is American I’m sure we’ll be back and forth while baby is still on bottles and so get the use out of it! 😂

I heard you can take powdered formula and that they will test a sample of the formula powder to make sure it’s not drugs. Either buy water after security or take unopened bottled water to mix formula. This is on the USA side. I don’t know what the UK customs are though.
