For the second day we have had to stay home because my little one is sick. But we still had to drop the big one off at preschool. On our way out, the baby is fussing. I know he wants a bottle, and we're pressed for time. Brushing teeth, putting on socks and shoes, putting the baby in his carseat...seemingly all at once.
Then the baby alarm goes off. I know there's no way I'm going to make it all the way back home without a total meltdown.
I whip up a bottle, but we need to get in the car! I look over and see those plastic toy chain links. Hmmmm....then the idea strikes.
I link them around the bottle and clip one on the top of the cars seat carrier handle. Perfect! My baby is almost 6 months old and can almost hold up the bottle on his own. This just helps keep it in place. In fact someone told me she saw something like it for sale on etsy. So I googled baby bottle holders and this is the best one I could find...but too pricey for me: Personalized Bottle Holder
My oldest son told me I was the smartest Mommy and he loved my idea! Total cost $0! That makes cents to me. Will I use it all the time? No, but in a pinch situations I will definitely do it again.
(Warning: this is probably considered a 'bottle prop' which can cause choking and drowning. Do this at your own risk!)
