How to prepare baby formula?

The basic points to pay attention to when preparing baby formula are:

Water: Always use boiled and cooled drinking water to prepare formula. Do not use tap water directly. After boiling the water and cooling it to around 70°C (wait approximately 5-10 minutes), add it to the formula powder — this temperature inactivates possible bacteria.

Measurement and Mixing: Follow the measurement written on each formula brand's package (usually 1 scoop per 30 ml of water) exactly. Pour water into the bottle first, then add the powder on top. Close the bottle and shake with circular motions — very vigorous shaking can cause foam. Never add extra powder to make it 'more filling'; this puts strain on the baby's kidneys.

Storage: Do not leave prepared formula at room temperature for more than 1 hour. Do not keep in the refrigerator longer than 24 hours. Do not reuse what the baby didn't finish — prepare fresh each time.

Temperature Check: Before giving to the baby, test the temperature by putting a few drops on the inside of your wrist; it should be warm, not hot.
