Some questions!

Hey ladies, im new to this section of the forum as for the last 15 weeks i have been a breastfeeding mummy, i am now giving formula NAN HA GOLD and expressed breastmilk, i have taken my DS off the breast because i was using shields, it was taking him an hour to feed, and he got no play time, didnt sleep and was always unsettled, i couldnt work out why he was so unsettled all the time? i am now thinking its because he was so over worked on the shields as he is picking up everyday now.

I have a few questions, im hoping someone can help me out with?

- Is it ok to prepare the water, leave it in the frige or on the sink and add the formula when my DS is ready for the bottle?

- Is it true that heating the bottle in the mircowave makes it lose nutrition?

- is it ok to reheat a bottle for upto an hour, in boiling water?

- My DS is nearly 4mths but only drinks 90 - 100mls of formula? is this ok? or will he not be getting everything he needs?

Thanks for everyone help in advance :).

yes

no i thought that was only breastmilk. And just be careful you get bpa free bottles if ur heated. (i never heated mine)

im a bit iffy on this id rather make a smaller amount. Hopefully someone else can answer this question.

if your still feeding him some breastmilk it sounds fine. I think it goes on their weight to.

thanks for everyone help in advance :) your welcome :p.
