Baby Formula: An Old Time Recipe And Techniques

Apparently, babies did not starve way back when before the baby formula industry was created.  Homemade formula was made using two different techniques. The instructions were probably given to the new mother before leaving the hospital.

Definitely check with your pediatrician. I am not a doctor. This is just an FYI... 



In terminal heating you clean, but do not sterilize bottles in advance. You then fill them with the prepared formula and cap them loosely. Next, the filled bottles are placed in a pan with water reaching about halfway up the bottles, and the water is brought to a gentle boil for about 25 minutes. It's very similar to a food preservation method using a hot water bath process.


Tap water, bottles, and nipples are sterilized individually by boiling, then using aseptic technique, homemade formula is then poured into the bottles. A day's supply is prepared and refrigerated until use.



Blessings,

Mrs. Smith
