[QUOTE="donna723, post: 33957, member: 1883"] I remember my mother making formula out of Karo syrup and evaporated milk when my brother was a baby! And I remember making and sterilizing the bottles of formula for my own kids, but at least I could pour theirs out of a can! I had the glass bottles and the big covered metal pan with the rack inside for the bottles. Actually, I used to do this late at night and was in such an exhausted haze by that time, I hardly remember doing it! I was soooo glad when they outgrew having to have the bottles sterilized! It's a HUGE chore when it's 2:00 a.m. and your knees are wobbling because you're so tired! When I switched to the plastic bottles, we bought one for my son that he loved so much, he insisted on using only that one, right up until he started drinking out of a cup! I wish now that I had saved it. It was a little plastic Barney Rubble from the Flintstones and "Barney" was around for so long, he became almost like a member of the family! [img]:grin:[/img] And another thing, I have always been infinately grateful that my kids came along BEFORE there was Barney the Dinosaur! My son was a Sesame Street addict from a very early age and never missed an episode. I LIKED watching Sesame Street too! But I just could NOT have handled "Barney" ... all that "I love you, you love me.." makes me want to gag! [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/sick.gif[/img] Nope! Ol' "Barney" would have driven me right up the wall! [/QUOTE]
