Generally speaking, breastfeeding takes about six months, and after six months, babies need to be fed some infant formula. However, many mothers have encountered the problem that infant formula is difficult to dissolve and brew. So, what if infant formula cannot be completely dissolved?
What should I do if infant formula cannot be completely dissolved
Infant formula is indeed good and not easy to dissolve. Mothers can shake or stir it more. In addition, it is best to use plain water that has been boiled and cooled down when preparing milk powder. Try not to use water from a water dispenser, and do not mix hot water with cold water. If you accidentally block the pacifier, you can mix it with slightly warmer water, about 50 degrees, shake it well, and try replacing the pacifier with a larger hole. Generally, the problem can be solved
Why is infant formula difficult to dissolve
1. Milk powder itself contains nutrients that are difficult to dissolve or slightly soluble in water.
The protein and fat in the main components of infant formula milk powder are difficult to dissolve or slightly soluble in water. When the milk powder is completely dissolved and cooled, some fat nutrients will precipitate and adhere to the bottle wall. It's okay, this is the fat substance in the milk powder.
2. Milk powder does not contain any solubilizing ingredients.
Does it necessarily mean that milk powder dissolves quickly? In fact, fast dissolving milk powder, especially those that can be quickly dissolved by mixing with low-temperature water or even cold water, may be the result of adding cosolvents.
Generally speaking, milk powder without added solvents is not so easy to dissolve. Don't be impatient, just brew it slowly. In addition, for the selection of infant formula, safety is the most important. It is best to buy a trusted brand and not to buy unqualified formula just for the sake of cheapness.
