Store Formula License For Free

Use prepared formula within two hours of mixing and within one hour of starting your baby's feeding. Once you've fed your baby their formula, make sure to discard any formula left over in the bottle. It's no longer safe to be consumed since it's been contaminated with your baby's saliva and can grow unsafe bacteria.

Prepared formula can be stored within a cooler bag with ice packs for as long as the temperature inside remains cold enough. Usually this is no longer than 2 hours.

Safely store bottles Make up bottles following steps to safely prepare baby formula. Place cooled bottles in the back of the fridge. Make sure the temperature of the fridge is 5 degrees Celsius or less. Throw away any feed not used within 24 hours.

Baby formula doesn't have to be warm. It's fine to feed your baby cool or even cold formula. It's all up to your baby's preference ? they may prefer it warm, at room temperature, or even chilled, and all of those options are just fine.

If not used immediately, when made up infant formula must be stored in a sterilised bottle or container at the back of the fridge, in the centre where it is coldest. Discard un-used infant formula after 24 hours if refrigerated.

If you prepare formula ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator. You can use pre-made formula for up to 24 hours. Open containers of ready-made formula, concentrated formula, and formula prepared from concentrate can be stored safely in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours.
