We prepare as per the box into individual sterilised bottles, usually 3 at a time, then store in the fridge (not the door). We can then just take from the fridge as needed, always within 24 hours - easy when you’re doing them in small batches - and use as is or warm up depending on baby’s preference x
I've always done this, with all 3 of my kids. I make the bottles as per the instructions, then I rapidly cool in a pan of cold water and store in the back of the fridge. I then use within 24hrs. We started off on C&G, now we're on prescription formula
We use the ready to feed bottles. Honestly, I’d pay the extra amount just so I don’t have to use the powdered formula and faff about!
I use the Dr. browns formula pitcher and make the formula like normal. It can sit in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
