Re: Assume I’m a complete idiot…
Are you sure you still need to sterilize the bottles? I think soap and water may be enough.
Also, keep a bottle (even if it’s just with a little bit to drink) for take off and landing. The sucking motion helps avoid the ear pains.
Tire him out during the layover.
And yes, take all the meds and a thermometer.

^ i was thinking of sterilizing on the plane cos i thought i could only wash his bottles in the bathroom and shudder those things are nasty. but if i can wash in the sink the flight attendants use, then that might not be necessary.
Re: Assume I’m a complete idiot…
they don’t sell those in canada, apparently! wahhh 
good call on the medicines and thermometer.
Re: Assume I’m a complete idiot…
The hell like hot water they use in the plane kitchen…its enuff to kill off anything … Just twll them to rinse em out for u… Dnt let bottles sit with unfinished milk etc… If the baby is done… Get em washed fast… This way u wont need detergent every single time.
