I've been told that you should not use bottled water (the water cooler kind).

I've heard tap (if you drink your tap) or filtered water through a brita.

Re: which kind of water for formula?

We use RTF but I asked my ped about the powdered and she said tap water if fine, if you want put it through a filter.(like a brita)

Personally I dont get why to use bottled water for a few reasons, first if you use bottled water, is it really that much cheaper now than the RTF kind, and bottled water has less regulations on it than tap water.
