« on: May 27, 2008, 16:03:49 PM »
Hi all,
I'll be coming back to calis in september for 3 weeks.. the problem i have is that my little girl will only be about 3.5 months old. Does anyone know where i can get SMA gold powdered milk from incase i decide to bottle feed? Or the name of a suitable alternative and where i can get it from??  I dont fancy carrying loads in my suitcase if i can help it, they weigh a ton and i know airports this end can be funny about what you take through.
Also, nappies!?? We're generally going to be using pampers or huggies over here, Are they (or alternative) available and are they expensive?

Sorry i know i'm a worrying first time mum, i just dont wanna have any problems on our first family holiday if i can help it.

Any help on this subject would be gratefully recieved..
THANKS xxx

Hi BJ

You can't get SMA here, if it is SMA you specifically want, you can buy it (the made up cartons usually) in Boots at the airport - if the airport has a Boots - that way it doesn't make up part of your luggage allowance, because you have already checked in your luggage  :)

Nappies of all brands are readily available over here.

Hi there
You can also get Aptamil over here in any of the shops. Its about 35ytl for a large tub. And Huggies are about 24ytl for roughly 62.
Hope this helps.
