Currently using expressed milk and ready made formula. Bit concerned about the number of bottles going in the recycling and can't buy a 1 litre bottle as baby was premature and only has half a litre a day (says must use within 24 hours).
Looked up how to make up powdered formula. Is there something I'm missing?
Baby starts asking for food. Boil kettle, wait half an hour, mix formula, shake for 10 mins, run under cold tap for ages until cool enough to give baby.... who has presumably been screaming her head off for 45 minutes while you've been fannying about.
Baby is fed on demand as is only just waking herself to eat and formula must be used within an hour so I couldn't make it in advance in case she goes longer. Also am working full time (from home, with baby) so do have time constraints.
Like I said, am I missing something here? How's it done?
Sorry for being a thickie x
