Some further information for new mothers.
Choosing the right formula for your baby usually comes down to a personal preference. Considerations most parents and caregivers consider include budget, time commitment, and their baby’s risk factors.
Powder baby formulas are the most economical; however, unlike liquid formulas, powder formula is not sterile. This could result in a baby getting an infection from a germ in the powder formula.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), babies at greatest risk of sickness from powder formula contamination include:2
- Newborns under 2 months old
- Premature infants
- Babies with weakened immune systems
Some parents use powder formula as an everyday feeding method but use a liquid formula when they travel or go out.
You should always follow the package directions for how to mix and feed infant formula. Most formulas follow the same instruction to avoid confusion. However, never presume they are the same, and always follow directions exactly. Over- or under-mixing infant formula can result in dehydration or too much or too little weight gain.
