Powder Formula

Hi all

I am formula feeding my bubba and was just wondering how long i have to use the bottle once I've made it up? I.e. once I've added the water to the powder.

I thought it was 1 hour but a friend told me it was 2 hours so I just want to check as I have been throwing away anything not consumed within the hour! But if I can use it up to 2 hours that would be soooo much better as my bubba stirs for a bottle in the night but then doesn't always take it straight away and likes to come and go from the bottle (frustratingly at night time!)

Thanks in advance! X

I thought it was 2 hours. And can be put in the fridge for up to 24 hours.

I think it's two hours for a new bottle, but one hour if the baby has had any from that bottle.

One hour ready made
Two hours powder made

It’s usually 2 hours. It should say on the tub though.

SundayMorningSun is correct. It will tell you on the tub.
