Likewise, people ask, how long is formula good for after mixed?
Formula that's been prepared should be consumedorstored in the refrigerator within 1 hour. If it has been atroomtemperature for more than 1 hour, throw it away. And if yourbabydoesn't drink all the formula in the bottle, throw awaytheunused portion — do not save it for later.

A prepared (but untouched) bottle of formula canbestored in the back of the fridge for 24 hours.Openedcontainers of ready-to-feed and liquid concentrate formulasaregood for 48 hours. Powdered formula should be usedwithinone month of opening the can or tub.
In the first four to six months when your babyisn'teating any solids, here's a simple rule of thumb: Offer 2.5ouncesof formula per pound of body weight each day. Forexample,if your baby weighs 6 pounds, you'll give her about 15ounces offormula in a 24-hour period.
