Have you talked to the family that is doing the respite? they may have bottles and only require formula and food. I put mine in respite for an emergency sugery I had and sent extra money for babyfood as I had intended to go to the store and hadn't made it yet. And of course diapes wipes and clothes. 9 days isn't very long and you shouldn't worry about getting them back. I like to think we all do respite once in a while. I am planning a weekend for myself soon.Good luck
