  • Do NOT water down formula to stretch it out; it can be extremely dangerous to your baby to do so. Always follow formula label instructions or those given to you by your healthcare provider.
  • Do NOT buy formula from online auctions, unknown individuals, or unknown origins. Storage and shipping conditions may impact formula safety. Formula from outside the United States is not regulated by the FDA, though the FDA is now exploring safe options for importing formula from other countries.

For additional information, please see this new fact sheet from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) with resources for locating safe formula.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a recall of infant formula due to potential bacterial contamination.

The FDA is advising consumers not to use Similac, Alimentum, or Elecare powdered infant formulas with certain codes printed on the product packaging near the expiration date. Products that do not contain the codes are not impacted by this advisory. This advisory does not include liquid formula. These powdered infant formulas have the potential to be contaminated with the bacteria Cronobacter.

 

If your child is drinking Similac brand formula, please check to see if your formula (lot number) has been recalled due to possible bacterial contamination. You can check the lot number here. 

If it is in the recall group, stop use immediately. If you cannot find unaffected cans of your child’s Similac formula in stores, you can switch to Similac ready-to-feed liquid formula OR another brand’s equivalent line. The video below provides an excellent overview of the recall including a list of alternatives if you need to change formulas.

How to prepare infant formula

How to make formula for your baby.


In order for your baby to grow up healthy and feel good, it is important not only to choose the right formula, but also to use it correctly.

In the first months of life, the child's body goes through a period of adaptation to extrauterine conditions, the entire first year the baby grows and develops intensively. Everything that surrounds the baby from birth should contribute to its development, be as useful and safe as possible. That is why when preparing infant formula, it is necessary to strictly observe the rules of hygiene, recommendations for handling the product and take into account storage conditions.

To prepare the mixture, use only boiled water - it must be boiled strongly for at least 5 minutes. Bottled water is not sterile and should also be boiled before use. Do not heat water in the microwave.

Cool the boiled water to the temperature recommended by the manufacturer and dilute the mixture following the instructions. To measure the mixture, use only the measuring spoon supplied with the package.

If you dilute formula for more than one feeding, it should be stored in the refrigerator at 2-4°C and used within 24 hours. After the start of feeding, a portion of the mixture should be used within an hour, as reconstituted infant formula is an excellent breeding ground for microorganisms. After an hour, the rest of the mixture should be poured.

Often a newborn baby can fall asleep right during feeding - do not worry if this happened to your baby. Just lightly pat your baby on the cheek or nose, and if he wakes up, continue feeding.

Pay attention.

Dry infant formula after opening the package are not sterile. Use the product in accordance with the instructions and recommendations of the doctor.

When opening a package with dry infant formula containing healthy fats Omega-3, Omega-6, a slight fishy smell is possible - this is normal, because similar fatty acids are also found in fish oil, the benefits of which we have known since childhood. This smell disappears and is not felt in the diluted mixture.

Do not cook or heat the mixture in the microwave. In microwave ovens, food is heated unevenly, so some of the mixture may be too hot for the baby.

What utensils do you need to prepare the mixture?

Bottle, nipple, cap, measuring spoon, knife for removing excess mixture from the spoon. Two pots: in one you will boil the dishes, in the other - water for preparing the mixture. There are also convenient modern sterilizers and heaters that you can use when preparing the mixture.

One meal preparation

1. Wash your hands with soap and dry them with a clean towel. Thoroughly wash the bottle, nipple, cap, measuring spoon and all utensils that will be used to prepare formula. It is best to do this with a special product for children's dishes - it is more gentle. Be careful when washing baby utensils in the dishwasher: due to the narrow neck, the bottle often remains unwashed, despite the fact that bottles of most manufacturers are allowed to be washed in the dishwasher. For washing bottles, special brushes are provided, with which you can thoroughly rinse the bottle.

2. Rinse all dishes to remove detergent and boil them for 5 minutes.

3. Prepare a clean surface to mix.

4. Boil water in a separate saucepan at a high boil for 5 minutes. Unless otherwise specified in the instructions, mixtures containing probiotics, such as Similac Gold or Similac Comfort, must be diluted with boiled water cooled to a temperature of no more than 35 degrees in order to preserve the beneficial properties of beneficial bacteria.

5. Pour the required amount of warm, pre-boiled water into the sterilized bottle. Remember that you should not mix boiled and unboiled water to achieve the desired temperature.

6. Fill the included measuring spoon with the mix, then use the blade of a clean knife to remove the excess mix.

7. Add formula to water bottle as directed. Add dry mix to the bottle, not the other way around.

8. Stir until completely dissolved. For feeding, the mixture must be at human body temperature, i.e. approximately 35 ° C - check the temperature of the mixture and feed the baby. If the mixture is too hot, you can cool it down quickly by placing the bottle in a bowl of cold water.

9. Sit back, hug your baby and maintain physical and eye contact while formula feeding. Prepare a napkin in advance in case of excess mixture, and after feeding, scold the baby with a “column” so that he burps the air that has entered the stomach during feeding.

Pour out the remains of the mixture left in the bottle that the child has not eaten for an hour.

How do I properly heat formula bottles?

If you have prepared several servings of formula for feeding your baby in advance, and the bottle of formula is just out of the refrigerator, it is important not only to warm the formula, but also to do it right. So here's how to do it:

  • Remove the bottle of prepared formula from the refrigerator just before feeding.
  • Warm the formula by placing the formula bottle in a container of hot water so that the water level is below the rim of the bottle. In order for the mixture to heat up evenly, periodically shake or rotate the bottle, while the warm-up time should not exceed 15 minutes.
  • Check the temperature of the mixture by dropping a little on the inside of your wrist. The mixture should not be too hot, it must be cooled to a human body temperature - 35 ° C.

How do I take pre-prepared infant formula with me on trips and outings?

The first step is to cool the prepared mixture. During a trip or a walk, it should be stored in a cold place - this will help prevent the development of pathogenic bacteria.

  • Prepare the mixture as you would normally, let it cool and refrigerate (max. 5°C unless directed otherwise).
  • Remove the formula from the refrigerator just before leaving the house and put it in a special cooler bag.
  • Once there, you can put the formula bottles back in the fridge or warm them up and use them for feeding.
  • Remember that the mixture must be used within 24 hours.

If the planned trip or walk is longer than two hours, you may not be able to keep the bottles of formula cold - in this case, freshly prepared formula must be used for feeding. Plan ahead and take the required amount of dry formula with you in a clean, sterilized container. Prepare the mixture using boiled water.

Good hygiene and formula preparation is very important for your baby's healthy growth and development!
