Formula question...

[renbee]

I always follow the one hour rule. We throw a lot out too - it sucks!

I follow the 1 hour (not going to lie, sometimes I go 2 hours) rule. Throwing it away is sad though. People call breast milk liquid gold. Formula should be called that due to the cost !

I get rid of it after an 1-1.5 hours and I'm pretty lax in general about feeding "rules".

Confession time,I guess:

I will feed my baby an unfinished bottle if it is within the same day (12 hours or so). He's been exclusively formula fed since he was a week old.

I do tend to make up larger quantities of formula at a time and store it in a mason jar in the fridge. Feeding him smaller amounts at a time seems to help with not wasting formula.
