Baby will be going to daycare in one month and is formula fed. Pls recommend your bottle bag. Thanks.

Honest question. What's a bottle bag? My son was formula fed at daycare and we just put his bottles in a ziplock bag in his tote bag and then took them out when we got to daycare to put them on his shelf.

You do not need a bottle bag.

OP here. Examples of bags for baby bottles:

I do need a baby bottle bag because daycare is 30 mins drive from home and I don't have any insulated bag right now to keep the bottles cold. I figure if I need to buy something, I might as well get one of the above.

I spent way too long deciding this when my second went to daycare at 3 months. Ended up getting this one:

It's working well. Baby drinks pumped milk. The extra pockets have come in handy and it's big enough that I can throw in whatever she may need that day e.g. a new pack of wipes, swaddle, etc. I also picked it because I thought it would be good for when we start with purees.

I never even heard of this? What is it's purpose? If you are formula feeding, OP, you can just take the bottles in a regular bag and put them in the fridge at daycare.

I put mine in a beer 6 pack. Swapped to a new one every couple weeks.

Read the thread. OP explained that she has a 30 minute commute.

It doesn't matter. Get any lunch bag that fits the amount of bottles you need plus an ice pack

This one worked for me:

Before you know it your baby will be eating solids. I'd buy a larger insulated bag with a good ice pack and put your bottles in there. Then when baby goes through the food transitions you'll always have enough room.

Not OP, but wow, that is a really good idea!

(And large enough/good quality enough to be used as a lunchbox in upcoming years.

We had this one, but quickly outgrew it: http://www.toysrus.com/buy/accessories/j.l.-childress-maxicool-4-bottle-cooler-black-1905blk-2808210
It wasn't ideal for more than 3 Dr. Brown's large bottles. It was a pain to clean, so I wouldn't recommend it.
We ended up with a regular cooler bag like this: http://www.target.com/p/igloo-stowe-mini-city-cooler-lunch-bag-grey/-/A-16343695#prodSlot=_1_31

We just used a neoprene lunch bag that we already had with an ice pack inside.
