Does anyone have a good travel bottle warmer? DS screams bloody murder if the bottle is cold. If we want to go anywhere for the day though we need to find a way to heat the bottle up.
Suggestions?

We used a "wide mouth thermos"...basically for soups, etc (from Target) and filled it 70% of the way with boiling water before we left. When we needed to warm a bottle up, we opened it up and set her bottle in there for a minute or so. The only downfall is that the water cooled down after 1 use :( ...but if you are around a Starbucks (which is everywhere within a 1 mile radius right? ;) hehe) you can always ask someone to re-fill it with hot water for you. Here is the one we had..............

Are you using formula or EBM? For our 10-hour trip to my parent's house, we also filled a thermos with hot water and used that to mix the formula for DS. It stayed hot the whole time. Obviously if you're using EBM, that won't work. For that trip when DD was a baby (she was BF) we used a bottle warmer from Walmart that plugged into the car. Worked ok, but wasn't very fast.

Thanks for the suggestions Booeyj2 and jbemommy. DS is on formula and EBM. Is it just me or does EBM take a lot longer to heat up? I had wondered if a thermos would work, I didn't realize they make wide mouth ones. I had also heard the car plug in warmers take forever.
