| You can pretty much get everything you want here for babies, baby food, powdered milk, sterlizers, to name but a few. There is a baby hire company here, which does everthing from cots to baby baths (cot wot not, the chaps name is Mark, will forward number later on as don't have it to hand). North Cyprus is very child friendly so you will be able to relax. It is really hot here still, so don't forget child factor 50+ sun cream or block, and hats. hope that is a help to you |

| Hi Sids Any water as long as its boiled should be sufficient for making up baby formula. I've not seen SMA Gold in the shops but I'm sure you can get it. Karen |

| Hi Paul, This is the first time we will be taking our grandaughter to our house so dont know how we will get on, I swear by Avon Skin Sop Soft in the blue bottle, you can also buy it for the bath also, it works for me as I usually get covered in mozzie bites but since using this stuff bite free. It`s worth trying. no you are not being over protective Sept. will stil be hot. stevie-d |

| Yep for SMA Gold, all supermarkets have it. spray the room at least an hour before and that will hopefully keep the liitle buggers out. i gave birth to my child here, it really is not that bad, like i said you can get everything you need. If in doubt you can pop over to the greek side. |
