How do you prepare your formula?

Question

Ahead of time in the fridge? As needed? Just want to know what works for you.

Answer

I prepared formula and put in warmer. After each feed, i will prepare the next one. It works for me for night feedings so i dont feel anxious waking up to baby cries. But i also heard that its not good to prepare early as the bacteria can grow in it, isit true?

Answer

I have a water machine that has a mix temperature option that makes the perfect warm bottles. I then fill the bottle and add the formula.

Answer

I make four bottles for over night because he eats four times then in the am I make 8 bottles. Works for us. Just gotta take note on feeding Times and intake

Answer

I made mine as needed. Except for at night I would fill a bottle with the formula and another bottle with the water so it was an easy mix if he woke up at night.

Answer

At night, I would make up however many bottles I thought I needed so I could just pop them in the warmer. If I had leftovers, I would use them in the morning for feeds, and then the rest of the day I would just make the bottles as I went.  I tried to pre-make a bigger batch of formula once my LO was eating more, but I only had one jug, so once I ran out, if I didn't wash it right away (which I never did) I didn't have anything to make another big batch again. It was definitely convenient, but if you're going to make it in batches, I would definitely have 2 containers to rotate.
