Do you use powder or liquid?

Just curious? I know the liquid is thicker but is there actually a nutritional difference? Or does the liquid make them fuller? I don't think so but want to check!

Re: Do you use powder or liquid?

  • are you talking about formula? if you are, ive used powder for 3 of my kids. its just easier for me, and i have tried liquid but it gets wasted alot because it gets expired.

  • I use mostly powder, but have some liquid I take when we go out and aren't able to make bottles easily.

  • Oh and I just bring bottled water in the trunk with me when we go out and might not have water to make a bottle with. Easy.
  • Formula dispenser and a bottle of water in the diaper bag is as easy as it comes.

    I pour water in her bottles and formula dispenser too. We used the liquid from the hospital, but that's all.

  • I put the scoops of formula in her bottles and bring bottled water. So I don't even have to worry about scooping or dumping it, just pour water in and go. I have emergency bottles, formula and water in my vehicle. Never know when you'll get stuck somewhere too long.

    How do you accurately measure the water if you put the powder in first? Doesn't it throw it off?

    We still do the liquid. We tried to do powder a couple of times and LO would just end up really constipated. It wasn't worth it to us to figure out the magical combo of which powder and water (filtered, distilled, etc) worked for him

    . The sad thing is that even with buying the liquid, it will still be a few months before we've spent as much as we did on trying to succeed at breastfeeding in the beginning :(
  • I use liquid laundry detergent.

    I use liquid laundry detergent.

    Aren't you supposed to wait until 9 months before introducing laundry detergent in a liquid form?
