We figured if LO had problems we could always start using a brita or get bottled water but luckily never had to. Formula is expensive enough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-formula-with#post-470241 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 20:11:39 +0000 Andrea 470241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our tap water is good so we used that but I boiled it first, cooled it down to warm, and then mixed with formula. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-formula-with#post-470233 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 19:59:52 +0000 littlecasita1122 470233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We run tap water through a Brita filter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-formula-with#post-470169 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 18:56:12 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 470169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't give LO formula but we do give her cups of water.

Our water tastes great and it's totally fine as-is, but just in case, I boil it and put it into a glass pitcher to cool. I always have another freshly boiled batch ready (fast, electric kettle) and mix a little bit of hot water and the already cooled boiled water when I make a fresh bottle. This way works best for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-formula-with#post-470079 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 16:33:27 +0000 yoursilverlining 470079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unless you have valid concerns about quality, tap is fine to use. Public water quality is generally more regulated than bottled water manufacturing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-formula-with#post-470044 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 15:03:17 +0000 loveisstrange 470044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everyone I know just uses tap water. Check your water table and as long as your water is clean and has the right balance of minerals and such, you're fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-mix-formula-with#post-470039 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 14:59:54 +0000 chopsuey 470039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used ready to feed to supplement.

We are supplementing and I've just been mixing it with tap water, but realize that may not be the right thing to do. I forgot to ask yesterday at her well baby appt.</p> <p>Advice? </p>
