Formula Feeding 9/15

[Bluedaisy]

Hey ladies,

i have aver a formula question so I thought I would start a check in.  My question: when making multiple bottles should I be shaking each bottle just before I use it? Does formula settle? I'm Using liquid concentrate.

LO seems to be doing well with the Similac advance.  I still hate the smell of the formula burps...so gross.

Ugh the smell! Never getting used to it.

I would think you wouldn't shake (fewer bubbles) but I haven't read or seen anything about it.

I don't shake, sometimes a swirl or I gently turn it upside down. We have so much spit up that I don't want to add any bubbles.

I thought once you make a bottle, LO has to drink out of it within the hour, no?

No. You can refrigerate for 24 hours after preparation.
Once they have started drinking from it, it needs to be finished within an hour.

We use the RTF liqued too and I make all her bottles for the next day the night before. I shake the big bottle before I pour and just sort of swirl the actual feeding bottle after its warmed.
