Accidentally mixed Aptamil First powder with the Hungry powder

Hi all. After a very sleepless night with 4mo I was putting the shopping away and merged two in-date formula powders, thinking they were both Aptamil First. But now I realise I've added Hungry into First.

Would you chuck the lot? I thought it might be OK as it's one on top of the other rather than shaken together, but unsure now.

Won't do any harm. I used to mix hungry with normal if I didn't have enough of what I was intending to use. For future reference don't decant from one carton into another. Powder should be used within 4 weeks of opening. If you always decant the last bit you might find some of it is more than 4 weeks old.

I don't usually do it, but was short of space in the cupboard this time. Thanks, though, for setting mind at rest. A shame to chuck good formula!
