how to tell if baby formula is spoiled?

When formula spoils, you usually notice three things: smell, appearance, and taste. Fresh formula has a mild, neutral smell; spoiled formula smells sour, sharp, or moldy. If it looks lumpy, separated, or grainy (even in powdered formula, wet spots inside), it may be spoiled. Check the expiration date always — never use formula past its date. Opened powdered formula should be used within 4 weeks. Don't leave prepared formula out at room temperature for more than 1 hour, and don't keep it in the fridge longer than 24 hours. If your baby vomits, has diarrhea, or seems fussy after formula, stop using it and check with your pediatrician.
