Formula - forgetfulness
Hey all, I was making a bottle for my 6 week old and after giving it to her I suddenly started questioning if I put 5 scoops of formula in like I was supposed to up to 150 ml or just 4… I know babies aren’t supposed to have water so it would be more diluted if I forgot a scoop and now I’m panicking… has anyone else done this accidentally and will the baby be okay? I’m panicking here 😮💨

It’s alright I’ve done it loads of times specially when baby was constipated and needed more water. It’s alright
I just ordered the clevamama clevascoop to prevent it from happening again! Thank you - feeling a bit more relieved now. I started googling and saw water intoxication and seizures so was spiralling 😵💫💕
Water intoxication will only happen if you constantly add more water hun, the odd bottle won't harm your little one, I found that buying little travel formula pots and filling enough for the day/night helps a lot, I fill them first thing in the morning before my brain goes fuzzy 😂
@Nikita oh phew thank you! I’ll definitely do that - it’s so easy get distracted with those scoops. The sleep deprivation does not help 😅💕

Hi I think I have probs done that once or twice definitely questioned myself but my baby is fine as long as don't do it often they will be fine think it more if you give them straight water and I used to give my baby a lil water to clean the tongue
