@Yailin same as yailin. I’ve always used bottled water. Eventually both my kids liked cold milk also, doesn’t hurt them and it’s easier in the long run.
Boiled water is just to sterilize powdered formula from cronobacter. The risk of getting it is super low (only about 2 to 4 cases reported to the CDC per year) and the CDC says you’re only more likely to get sick if your baby is under 2 months, premature, or has a weakened immune system. Using cooled boiled water neither harms nor helps. Boiled water would need to touch the powder to help prevent cronobacter infection. We never boiled water and just used filtered water. Currently I’m home during the day so we just make a pitcher in the morning for the bottles during the day. If we go out, I’ll just used bottle water and mix formula as needed.
i couldn't understand much of what you meant lol I tried re-reading it a couple of times to see if it made sense but nope still kinda confused on what you mean 😅 but if it makes your life easier, i just use room temperature bottled water for my babies formula. I've never boiled my babies water before for all 3 of my kids I've always used bottled water and have never had a problem it's so much easier.
