We're going on a long trip. How should I carry powdered formula and water so I can prepare my baby's formula on the road?

On long trips, carrying formula is easiest this way: divide the powder formula into portions (one for each bottle) and carry it in a small, dry, clean container or a formula storage case. Carry your water separately in a thermos or bottle at room temperature or at the temperature your baby is used to. When preparing formula on the road, put water in the bottle first, add the powder, shake well — this way you avoid clumping.

Once prepared, use the formula within 1 hour at room temperature; if your baby doesn't drink it, throw it away rather than refrigerating. On longer trips, bringing water in a thermos that's been boiled and cooled is safer than cooling it along the way. If you don't have access to a fridge, ready-to-feed liquid formulas (long shelf-life, unopened boxes) can be a practical alternative.
