What kind do u use and is it powder or
concentrate? I use nestle good start
supreme and I use concentrate which is a
pain in the rear to make and whatever is
made has to be used within 24 hours, I am
gonna switch to powder since it is much
more convienient especially when goin out
with the concentrate I always have to find
a way to warm it up but with the powder I
can take the room tempature sterile water
and there ya go a bottle is ready lol also
I have heard that some of the good start
and enfamil concentrates were recalled a
long time ago due to some bacteria getting
in the 13 oz concentrated formula. Scary!

Im breastfeeding but I use formula once in
a great while if im out someplace and I
dont feel like pulling my boob out lol...
I use powder, I never know if shes gonna
get hungry or not, so I just keep a little
can of formula in the diaper bag, and
before I leave I fill a bottle with
water... I add the formula when she gets
hungry so that way im not wasting  ive
made several bottles and she never got
hungry, and yup, it went down the drain.
I felt like it was such a waste.

U just gotta be careful with powder

soon as u open the tin.... So be careful
of that!

Oh yeah I know but my baby is a lil piglet
so no non of that will go to waste but its
better than 24 hours of the concentrate
and I have to pre make those bottles. At
least with powder I can just make it as he
is hungry. I swear the next baby I have
I am totally breastfeeding. ~ erica.

Lol hell yea breastfeeding is so much
easier! At night, when baby is hungry,
and your soo incredibly tired, all you
gotta do is pull out your boob. I
even fall asleep sometimes when im feeding
her... You cant do that with a bottle...
I think bottles use too much
concentration, yea im lazy
