How often should you change the baby bottle? Recommended baby bottle brands

Baby bottles are a very common baby product. Almost every child uses baby bottles to drink milk powder. Baby bottles are products specially designed for young children. There are many kinds of baby bottles on the market, with different brands and designs.

In fact, this needs to be determined based on the material of the baby bottle. If it is a glass baby bottle, it needs to be replaced with a new one after about one year of use, or it is OK not to replace it, as long as it is regularly sterilized with high-temperature boiling water. However, for plastic baby bottles, the life span will be shorter. There are many types of plastic oils, such as PP, PES, PPSU, etc. Different materials have different shelf lives. Generally speaking, the service life of PP baby bottles is relatively short, only 3 months; PES and PPSU can be used for about 6 months. But if the plastic baby bottle shows signs of aging, it can also be replaced in advance.

1. Wash and dry your hands, and take out the sterilized bottle for use.

2. Cool the boiling water to between 37℃ and 43℃ (the cooling time of boiling water should not exceed half an hour), pour an appropriate amount of water into the bottle, and then add an appropriate amount of milk powder to the water in the bottle. This method of adding water first and then milk powder can make the ratio more accurate. At the same time, be careful not to compact the milk powder, and the number of spoons of milk powder added must be appropriate. Don't just add one more spoon just to make the baby eat more, which will make the milk too thick.

3. Adjust the temperature. After the milk powder is prepared, parents can drop a drop of milk on the inside of their arm. If it feels a little warm, it means the temperature is right. You can hold the bottle, cover the nipple with a cap, and wash it again in cold water to adjust the temperature.

1. It will cause malnutrition in babies

If the milk powder is diluted, the proportion of corresponding nutrients will also decrease, especially the protein content, which will cause malnutrition in the baby.

2. Increased risk of water intoxication in babies under 6 months old

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), babies under 6 months old do not need any liquid other than breast milk or formula milk, including water and juice. The water content in formula milk here refers to the water content in the standard concentration, which obviously does not include the situation where the formula is too diluted. If the formula is too diluted, it will affect the baby's appetite. The baby's stomach digestion function is not fully developed. If the baby consumes too much water, it will cause an imbalance of electrolyte concentration in the body, and in severe cases, water poisoning may occur.
