What about EBM on flights?
Mum of Two wrote: "Anne Rogers" wrote in message ... wrote in message oups.com... I'm flying soon and I'd like to take some EBM in a bottle for DS for the flight. They are confiscating liquids. Not sure what to do about this...as I'd like not to have to DUMP my milk if I bring it. they are allowing baby formula providing you taste it, EBM should be the same, but I do wonder why you would go to the fuss of a bottle and keeping it cool etc. when you could just breastfeed One of my first thoughts when I saw the ban on liquids, was 'Thank God for breasts!'. They couldn't exactly ask you to leave *those* behind. ;-) Not that it helps those mothers who are EPing, but it was just another situation in which I'm very thankful for breastfeeding. My reaction exactly. I'm flying next weekend with my 3 month old dd. Not to mention the possibility of huge delays, it's comforting knowing that I will have an endless supply of food for her. My first thought seeing all those long long lines at the airports was for the mom's and small children/babies, especially that first day when folks weren't prepared and ready for what the situation was. |

What about EBM on flights?
Though, with the new rules, I can see them instituting a bit more
flexibility here. (i.e., the FA could bring the juice before take-off, if asked. It's not like most flights have hundreds of thirsty toddlers on board.) having just flown today, they were handing out water before take off, I didn't seen anyone getting anything else, but I'm 99% sure that had I asked for anything for Ada they would have got it Anne |

What about EBM on flights?
wrote in message Why do you assume that? it wasn't so much the lack of mention of pumps, but the fact it seemed to be a it would be good, rather than it would be essential, if you've no other way of feeding her then it's essential. I am taking an hour's flight which doesn't need for me to pump on the plane. any problems either end and you could end up needing to pump, unless you are flying out of the UK, or on a BA flight into the UK there is no restriction on electrical items anyway, I'd not risk not having a pump available, even if you decided to take a hand pump.
