Mixing too much powdered formula with water
DH just realized that when he made DDs bottle this morning, he used 6 scoops instead of 3 with 6 ounces of water.
I'm not worried about it, but should I be?

Re: Mixing too much powdered formula with water
might constipate a little bit. id give a little less formula in the other bottles / same water 
OR just increase water with the normal amount of powder in other bottles

don't do this...it specifically says NOT to do this. There was a father in the paper that did this, although repeatedly...not a good outcome.
I'm sure your DS is fine, probably just have a thicker poop. sorry tmi. Just make the next bottle as normal.

hmmm, when DS was having pooping issues, our ped told us to do this. said probably too much powder for him, either lessen the amount or add water  thankfully it didnt last more than a week

I know you aren't doing the same thing as this father did, but he was trying to save money by not putting as much formula in the bottles. He did it to every bottle. He gave his child water poisoning and the baby did not live.

Re: Mixing too much powdered formula with water
I think it might make it harder to flow out the nipple too as it will be thicker...
