After struggling with night feeds for weeks and running on 1-2 hours sleep, DH and I tried giving DD a bottle of formula at 10pm. She refused it at first but DH got there in the end, although he says it took her 3 hours to finish about 80mls of formula. I panicked because I know formula is supposed to be used within an hour of being made up. In my sleep deprived haze I completely forgot to tell him this and he is used to giving expressed bm which can be at room temp for 6 hours. He assumed it was the same.
I have slept for the first time since going into labour 5 weeks ago! DD seems fine but I'm still worried- is it a huge concern that the last of the formula she took was 3 hours old?
