Bottle Warmers?

[BlondeAlligator]

Do the Baby Care Centers in the 4 parks have bottle warmers that will hold the wide Avent bottles?

I'm about 99.99% sure they do. I recall using them for my little ...they were the 8-ounce size. Matter of fact, I think Avent is the only kind of bottle they sell in the Baby Care Centers. They also carry Carnation brand formula if you need it...

Not sure if you have time to adjust to this before your trip. But room temperature bottles are the easiest thing in the world - no need to warm them anywhere and babies will drink them if that's what they're used to.

Out of the multitude of baby advice I received when pregnant/new mom, the absolute best and one that was the biggest convenience was never warming my babies bottles. They were used to room temp. from day one and never once did I need to find hot water, ask for some at a restaurant, or go back to a baby center. I just kept the bottle full of water in the diaper bag, and a travel container measured out to the right amount of formula - then whipped them together and shake! presto! Ready to go and easy to do in line, on a ride, etc.

Might be a bit of an adjustment if you are already warming - but defintitely doable with time. And will make vacation a ton easier. Just a thought to share...

I started her with room temp bottles, but when our Chicago temps fell this winter, she stopped taking them that way. Our room temps right now are about 66 degrees, so I can't blame her! I always prefer a warm cup of tea to a cold glass of water in winter,too! I will retrain her back to cold so I can give her milk straight out of the fridge when we are done with formula in a few months, but not in the middle of winter for a trip that is in just a couple of weeks.

Dont know how big your current bottle warmer is..but I am a florida resident and started taking my baby to the parks at 8 months...when I would take him I also took a portable bottle warmer...wasn't that big and I could warm it in any family bathroom they always have outlet in there. I also was able to keep it in the bottom of the stroller so I had it at all times just unloaded it when I folded the stroller up at night and put it back in the am...saved me a bunch of time and walking...as there is only one baby care center in each park and they tend to be in the very front of the parks it's not always convienent to trek from tommorrowland to the baby care center or from a country in Epcot to the Baby care center in the front. My DS is now 3 and I still take his juice and snacks in. I never used one of the baby care centers in the parks for diaper changing or bottle warming. I hope this helps!

When are you going to WDW? If it is summer time ish and you are useing power forumla, you can put the bottle of water on the top of the stroller for the sun to warm up.

We did WDW in September last year with a 5moth old and he did just fine. If you are going in july or aug, your little one might want a cold bottle bc of the heat.

We use the Avent bottles too, and are slowly convering our son to the sippy cup version. You can put the nipples in the sippy cups insted of the sippy cup nubby.

I did Disney 3ish times while formula feeding and did something a little different than previous posters. At the baby care centers they have hot water that comes out of the bubbler, I mean HOT! I would fill up my bottles and by the time my son need to eat, say 2 -3 hours later or whatever, the water would have cooled down to warm. I would check to make sure the temp was OK, then add the formala right before feeding. So I would visit the baby care center only a couple of times per day and always be ready with a warm bottle even if I was on a ride or in line.

As the mother of a child who would NOT take her bottles cold, or room temperature, or any other way besides what we call "coffee hot" (she has some sensory issues) I can tell you that the bottle warmers at the Baby Care stations in both the MK and Epcot do work with Avent bottles. I never had to warm a bottle in the other parks, so I can't speak for them.

To be honest though, I usually used the microwave at the baby care centers to warm her bottles. I KNOW you're not supposed to, but the bottle warmers took forever to get the bottles as warm as she took them!

So, if you're comfortable microwaving them (at least the water), you have that option as well.
