My Open Book

If you are planing on bottle feeding your new born or you already are bottle feeding your infant it is important that you handle the bottles correctly to avoid your baby from being unhealthy. You want to have a healthy and a happy baby. Keep your baby’s bottles clean and stored in the fridge to prevent any harmful bacteria or germs that could cause stomach problems.

Wash all bottles, nipples, and bottle caps in warm water with a mild soap, or in the dishwasher. When you have washed the bottles rinse then and out them in boiling water for five minutes prior to filling them with formula or breast milk.

Before you mix the formula you must boil the water you will be mixing it with and let it completely cool. When the water is boiled it takes most of the additives out that could ham your baby. Which is similar to bottles sometimes. Use a bottle only one time then clean it again using the same process.

If you have to take the baby out for a long period of time and need formula, make certain that your baby drinks it within an hour if it is mixed formula or if it is breast milk. Obviously, this has nothing to do with mixes typically. You could also use powered formula if you formula feed your infant and take the boiled water separately this will allow you to mix the formula as it is needed.

Any formula that is opened will not keep very long. Amy formula that is mixed and not used within a twenty four hour period should be thrown away. Ready use formula that is opened is good for 48 hour after it has been opened, just like formulas usually. Powered formula is good for one month after it has been opened. If your baby has not drank all the formula in their bottle, you need to throw the unused portion away, germs will go into the leftover milk.
