i used boiled water for my son while he was 1 week old then i bought the nursery or the beechnut water. i would advise you to get the bottled water for them.

Take a travel kettle, thermos flask and use bottled water. I always did this when going abroad with my babies.

Evian has very low levels of sodium and is ideal for boiling for bottles. Some generic brands have very high levels which are dangerous for little ones. Use it for mine whenever we're abroad.

I have four children, and have used bottled water with my last two. It has worked out great in many ways for us, and is good for them - you can use Nursery Water which has fluoride in it, and is recommended by a lot of pediatricians. I would try that and see if it works for you. I know you can bring it on your carry-on on the plane as well. Good luck!

you probably can not take enough of the premade stuff on the plane, not sure if they will allow that much quantity of liquid. I have been to the Dominican, our hotel stocked our fridge with bottled water daily, however if it was my kids i would still boil it just to be on the safe side, your hotel should be able to supply an electric kettle, call and ask before you go, if not pack a small one.

Yeah i guess i can buy bottle water, it's better than buying the formula that's already made, i would have to take a lot for twins and for 7 days. thanx

Does your formula come ready made? Sometimes you can buy it ready to go. It'll be more costly but it might be worth the peace of mind. Or buy bottled water when you're there.
