The steps to prepare a bottle correctly are as follows:
- Wash hands with soap and water.
- Add bottled water to the bottle. If you live in a geographic area with water suitable for drinking, you can fill the bottle with tap water.
- Incorporate the correct amount of milk powder according to the pediatrician's instructions.
- Insert the nipple and shake the bottle.
- Heat the bottle, mainly in a bain-marie or using a bottle warmer. If possible, it is not advisable to heat the bottle in the microwave.
- Check that the bottle is at the right temperature before feeding the baby. To do this, a few drops of milk can be poured into the mother's hand.
