So for the coming of age designer who has traded in long nights in the studio for long nights tending to newborns, check this self heating bottle by Karim Rashid.  As a father myself, I can tell you that a portable, energy conscious method of heating bottles (not through your car) would be of tremendous value, especially with breast milk that needs refrigerated.

iiamo go is a self-heating feeding bottle that gives parents on the go the ability to serve body temperature milk to their baby anywhere anytime without the use of electricity. iiamo go is the only bottle in the world with this unique combination of a portable, non-electrical, throw-away organic heating cartridges (iiamo warm) and a patented heating technology that is integrated into the bottle itself. The process is very simple. Pour the mother’s milk, formula or milk powder in the bottle; insert the cartridge in the bottom of the bottle and then just push, wait a few minutes and serve the milk.

I would encourage all to read the article and comments, as Karim defends his design, and if you are like me, you might appreciate something else besides cynicism and negativity.
