[blparent] welcome Gloria powdered formula

[Bernadetta]

Right, I agree with Bran. I've used both powder formula and the 
ready-to-pour formula. I got the ready-made stuff because my doctors 
insisted that this would be easier for me. But guess what? You can deal 
with the powder as long as you get someone sighted to let you know what 
the powder to water ratio is supposed to be for the particular formula. 
then you measure it out  like bran said. Both my partner and I are 
blind and this has worked fine for us.
Regarding bottles, I have to say I have a major preference for glass 
bottles over plastic ones. You can wash them better, they are more 
pleasant, and the ones I have have tactile measurements which never  
seem to fade in any way, despite the thousands of times they've been 
sterilized. You can also feel how much you're pouring more easily with 
a glass bottle, because the temperature of the part of the bottle with 
the liquid changes instantly. Notsure if I explained this correctly.
Anyway, the glass bottles are really quite cheap. I got mine at wal 
mart and I haven't had to replace them at all, even though one or two 
have fallen one in a while.
Anyway, I haven't really caught up on this topic yet, but I'll be sure 
to add any suggestions for you that I can think of.
