How long to use an opened baby formula—this is my first baby and I have no idea, can you help?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

I'm so glad you're thinking this through with your first baby—don't worry at all. For opened dry formulas, the rule is this: Once you open the lid, you should use it within 1 month maximum. You'll see this written on the package too, so you can double-check there.

Store the formula in a cool, dry place (you don't need the fridge) and make sure to close the lid tightly after each use. Any formula left after 1 month shouldn't be used—even if there's no clumping or bad smell, the vitamins lose their strength over time.

Hope that puts your mind at ease. Ask anytime you have a question.
