Powdered Formula Users

I am so new to using powdered formula. I have this dispenser, and even though its the first day I've used it, I don't like it...I feel like alot of the powder gets stuck. Does anyone have something better, or advice on how to work with this one....thanks!

I bought these originally for breast mik storage and then I started using them for the powder it holds enough powder for a 6oz bottle.

Re: Powdered Formula Users

I use this and LOVE it. Tip: Put the spout in the bottle, rest the container on the top of the bottle and shake it back and forth between the bottle sides. It will shake all the formula off the sides of the container and into the bottle. Will make almost a clicking noise when it hits the sides of the bottle.

Hopefully that made sense. It works better than shaking it into the bottle.

I have the same container, I guess I'm just used to it because it doesnt bother me too much...The only other option is that Similac has the on the go single packs...

I had that container and found the same thing would happen..formula would get stuck..I now use the one by Nuby (which is BPA free) and like it much better.

I use this 2. If you do the tapping/shaking then all the formula will come out. I'm finding it tough to use now that we are making 8oz bottles bc the mouth hits the water and then gets all nasty. So at home I've been making my bottles for the day and I've been using this container when I go out.
