[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remembered my mom sterilizing bottles (glass back then) and preparing formula using, I think, evaporated milk, maybe corn syrup?, probably boiled water to dilute the milk. I never boiled water for the powdered formula, no issues with water quality where I live, but it was a strange contrast against the memory of what my mom had to do (not to mention the cloth diapers)[/quote] I had my babies in the 70s. When my first was projectile vomiting the stuff they sent home from the hospital (Similac?) across the room like in the movie The Exorcist my mom suggested switching to Dr. Spock's recommendation of carnation evaporated milk and corn syrup. I did not sterilize glass bottles or boil the water. I used tap water and plastic bottles. The baby did fine on that, as did my second.[/quote]
