Some ladies have recommended this item. I guess I keep thinking about whether or not the formula is equally distributed throughout the batch. I know its mathematical there is a certain amount of formula per certain amount of water but I was wondering if formula might settle a little and be off. I typically just make up a few bottles at a time and refrigerate them until needed. Just wondering if ladies feel that the pitcher is a more efficient method.
Curious...for those that use the pitcher, do you warm the bottles before giving to LO or give them cold? What do you do for MOTN? Go to kitchen to get the bottle & then wait for it to warm? Assume when you are out you just mix as needed so you don't have to keep refrigerated on the go?
I may need it too! The generic formulas are so hard to mix. How does it handle those?
It doesn't matter what kind of formula it is. It's all the same stuff.
Have you ever bought Up and Up or Parent's Choice? Huge difference in how they mix compared to big brands. The powders are not nearly as fine. They are very hard to mix.

I've used the Up and up and the Kroger brand, and they mixed fine, just took a little longer to mix. You can see if everything is dissolved while youre mixing, so just don't stop pumping the handle until it is. Once it's fully dissolved, it stays that way. As for MOTN, I know you're not supposed to, but I use the microwave once I pour formula into a bottle. I don't heat to get it warm, just to get around room temperature so it's not so cold for LO.
