    Both my boys have S26 and I just presumed all formulas wree made up the same!!
    S26 is 1 scoop per 60mls cool boiled water!

    I just work it off the formula so if I make up at 120ml bottle I don't take any notice of what it goes up to when formula is added - would you alter milk in a cake recipe just because the level changes when the flour is added??? It is only changing because you are adding a solid to a liquid.

    With the bottles - sterilise until 6 months old because then they are flat out putting everything in their mouths anyway! However, having said that, I sterilise until they go onto cows milk as a drink at 12 months of age.

    Bottles can be made up with formula for 24 hrs and any left after the 24 hours has elapsed should be discarded.

    Formula to the best of my knowledge should be warmed. On hot days offer cooled boiled water but not so much that they won't have their milk.

    At the beginning of the FF section, there is info on bottle feeding incl into on reheating! Only reheat ONCE in an hr and discard after that.

    On the topic of kins od bottles - my DS#1 had NUK teats with Avent bottles. DS#2 has the same although he has just wokred out that if he squeezes the teat it fall out of the bottle and all the milk runs out of the bottle all over us! Amusing - NOT!!!! This arvo I am buying NUK bottles, to bad about the cost....I get to spend Money is how I see it anyways!

    Good luck on FF....xxxx

    Oh, I know with Weth (makers of S26) I can ask them questions about their S26. Worth checking out your FF websites to see what they offer!!! Just a thought!!
