| The Right Way to Handle Baby Bottles 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 should want to do anything you can to keep your baby healthy. Keep your baby's bottles clean and stored in the fridge to prevent any harmful bacteria or germs that could cause stomach problems. Click Here! Wash all bottles, nipples, and bottle caps in warm water with a mild soap, or in the dishwasher. After you have wash and rinse them boil the bottles in water for about five minutes before you fill them with the formula. Prior to mixing the baby's formula you should boil the water that you will be using and let it cool. This takes the additives out of the water that could make your baby sick. When you use a new clean bottle use it one time only then it will need to be cleaned again. If you need to take any formula out with your baby, be sure that it is drank by your baby within an hour if it is mixed or if it is breast milk. 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. Click Here to buy! Opened formula doesn't keep for very long. Amy formula that is mixed and not used within a twenty four hour period should be thrown away. Ready to use formula is good for forty eight hours after it is opened. Power formula is good for thirty days 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. | |
