can you give me the 411 on formula plz

i never used it for my older ds and i'm a bit clueless now. i mainly bf but give about 2 oz. of formula a day b/c of low supply.

what do i need to know about formula?

how long cani keep it opened in the fridge?

can i save left over formula in a bottle that he drank from?

i have the similac in those 2 oz. bottles (like they give you in the hospital), is it better to feed my ds with that bottle or use my playtex drop in bottles?

thanks!!!

I never reused formula after they drank from it.

A can can of powder is 1 month open and a RTF Bottle is 72 hrs.

I used the RTF 2 oz bottles from the beg but it started to give her a lot of gas so I switched to the drop ins. They also gave her gas so then I switched to Dr. Browns

I use RTF Formula

Once you open it it stays good in fridge for 72 hrs

Once I heat a bottle I give it to DS within one hour
