Re: Powdered Formula
Just regular bottled water - or are you supposed to use 'sterlized water'?

Re: Powdered Formula
My friend just used Poland Spring bottles-not sure if it's the "correct" way but that's how she did it.

Re: Powdered Formula
I used the baby water with flouride. That's what my ped. recommended, but I don't know whether you need to give flouride.

Be careful wihen giving this water and fluoride vitamins too. The child can wind up with Fluorosis a condition of the teeth and bones.... I've seen this often in my patients....You can FM me for more info if you'd like......

Re: Powdered Formula

Re: Powdered Formula
Filtered water from the fridge at home or bottled water. Been doing this from day 1. I never boiled water for her. I guess it never occurred to me to boil to filtered water from the fridge.

Re: Powdered Formula
we were boiling....but now it's just from the Brita pitcher. I'll use bottled water for when we go out or I'll fill a used water bottle from our Brita.

Re: Powdered Formula
We use Nursery water, her pediatrician said not to use regular bottle water because it doesnt have flouride. So we buy gallons of baby water at BRU for 1.29 a gallon. And we buy the small bottles for travel, they come
8 in a pack (9oz. each) for $2.49 at BRU and $2.00 at the pharmacys.
