Shimmy Alcott, Going to protect my skis with as many nappies as I can.
Just back home from work. So many responses. Thanks.
Our daughter is 3 months old now, and will be 5 when we go. Going to try out the powder about 4 weeks before we go and take a tin along if she gets on OK with it.
Breast v Formula. Each to their own. We would prefer her to have all breast milk, but supplement it with formula. Better that than a hungry, crying baby.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Drluvski, hope the holiday goes well - that's a really easy age to take a baby on holiday; they can't escape!

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Drluvski, The absolute plus point is the silence that descends once they fall asleep with the motion of the car - it lasts hours and hours - lap up that plus point now - it doesn't last!!

I was at Geneva Airport at the weekend and to help a fellow  I popped into the pharmacy by the airport train station to have a look. They sell loads of varieties of Aptamil powders, but the only ready made milk cartons were the Nestle variety.

I know what you mean. Our baby is also 5 months old and we often travel with him in the car. It really is a wonderful age, he falls asleep very quickly on the road. The only difficulty we may have is getting the formula bottle ready. He has been on a mixed diet since birth and on the recommendation of his pediatrician we give him Hipp Dutch stage 1 Baby formula https://thebestfromjapan.com/hipp-dutch-stage-1-organic-bio-combiotic-infant-milk-formula-with-dha-800g which he likes very much. And since this formula is a good alternative to breast milk, I am calm that he gets all the vitamins he needs for proper growth.

Welcome to snowHeads @JoannColon,
The babies originally discussed in this thread now have their own mobile phones and may be wearing a bra (even the boys.....)

Christ what have I stumped upon here! 
I came to offer a suggestion if it hadn’t been suggested already. As a dad of 2, regardless of everyone else’s opinions on the matter, you will stick to the milk that you know works, and is tried and tested. Why not buy some and ship it over to one of the local Snowheads who lives over there, then you can collect when you arrive?

You know it makes sense.

@Ricklovesthepowder, Someone bumped a really old thread.
Brexit has happened since the thread was started, that might make a difference to whether you can send food to Morzine from the UK.

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

FAQ
- if you can figure her best powder concentration before you go then the tubs are the best option (with a few cartons on the side). You can get a little dispensing doohickey which has 3 compartments you can preload 3 "doses" of powder into and then just tip the powder into your bottle of water when ready for a guzzle.
