No. It takes the nutrients out of the bottle
Nope, it will leave hot spots. I would just put them in a pot of hot water the times I used them.
I always heard it was a big no-no since it can heat unevenly and burn the baby during the meal. We just bought an electric kettle, boiled water and and put it in a yeti with the bottle for a minute or two. Itâs usually too hot and we add an ice cube 
If youâre formula feeding then just leave the distilled water on the counter and it will already be warm when they drink it.

What I used to do was microwave water in a bowl and stick the bottle in the hot water for a few minutes to take the chill out
Iâm just saying if you do shake that sucker GOOD and test it on your wrist
If itâs formula, I wouldnât warm it up. The only reason I warmed it up is because my daughter was first on breast milk in a bottle (that had to be warmed because of frozen + pumping).
Never microwave a bottle!
No microwave. Bottle warmer or run it under warm water. The formula doesnât really need to be warm. Itâs baby preference. I buy jugs of water and they are kept outside the fridge, room temp.
I do it. Just shake it good and disburse the heat evenly and test before giving baby 
Microwave using a milky meter it is specifically designed to let you know when the temperature is correct using a microwave
Never warm plastic bottles

Just boil water and put the bottle it in that to sit for a while to warm it without whatever the microwave puts off⌠healthiest safest way to go as coocoo as it sounds lol
I used to put hot water in a cup and warm it that way Iâm not a fan of the microwave
Itâs fine. I did it for a while because I thought it was supposed to be warm but now just use room temperature. Just put it in for like 5 second intervals until you figure out the right timing for your bottles and shake good.
Nuke the water in cup. Not the bottle. Safer this way. Then just mix everything in the bottle. But test to make sure itâs not that hot before giving to baby.
I did for my first but then for my other two I just left the water out at room temperature and added the powder in as it was needed. Made night feedings easier
I personally would not. A microwave creates hot spots that can burn your babyâs mouth. I would suggest a bottle warmer, and some brands go for as little as $10 or you can find one on marketplace. I have the Advent brand for $20 and it takes about 3 minutes to fully warm a bottle. You could also microwave a bowl of water then place the mixed bottle in the bowl for a few minutes.
Be careful it cause heat pockets that can burn the baby. Iâd personally always used a bottle warmer. And make sure I mixed it up good and tested it on the back of my wrist.
I got this as a gift and it was the best thing ever. It worked so good and the milk was the perfect temp.
Honestly it is dangerous to microwave anything in plastic. Plastic has a lot of toxins that are released. Use something else to warm

Pediatricians and on-the-bottle directions say never to use the microwaveâŚit is too dangerous for the infant. Not only can there be too hot areas of formula or breast milk, but the bottles can emit some chemicals from the plastic that you sure donât want your baby to be exposed to (after it is heated). That is also why they say to always hand wash bottles and never put them in dishwashers (too hot). Better safe then sorry with your child, right?! <3
My first was formula fed and I used a coffee pot (new never had coffee in it) to heat up water and also kept a cold bottle of water in the fridge mixed together for the perfect tempt.
I use a bottle warmer, works great
I just use room temperature water. So much quicker and easier. Pack the formula in the bottle, add water shake and feed lol I did breast feed for the first 2 weeks and always pumped right before the baby ate. But I know this is not ideal for full time breasting momâs cause they pump so often.
I use my Keurig to get the hot water then I mix it with some cold to get the perfect temp. 
No, use warm water in a cup to bottle in or a bottle warmer
I did with my oldest cause I didnât know any better, but I always shook it up really well afterwards. Now I put the bottle in a cup of hot water and heat it that way

Crock pot- keep lid on it when not using it so it stays warm. Just pop in a bottle (or more) and in a few minutes, itâs warm! Can keep it on all day and add water once or twice.

No because of the plastic of the bottle. Warm it up in a different cup then pour into bottle. They have those cool baby bottle warmers that are safe to use. My sister had one for her baby last year.
Yes just check it before giving it to your baby, and put the formula in after you warm it.

We have never. Iâve heard from pediatricians that it can create âhot pocketsâ in the formula. Buy a cheap bottle warmer. Ours was maybe 20 bucks on amazon.

You shouldnât because the heat is unevenly distributed and can create hot spots. You can microwave a cup of water though to heat the bottle in though! Pretty sure all the formula cans say not to microwave as well.

We drink our tap water, so we would just use hot water from the tap for the bottles. But if we were elsewhere, we would warm the water up and then mix it together.

To my knowledge its not a good idea because of the hot pockets and just like our food loses nutrients. Big cup water and place the water in the cup. Bottle warmer works wonders too if its in your budget

Itâs not environmentally friendly but I use breast milk storage bags. I pre make the formula, measure it out, bag it. So when I need it I run it under warm water for 8-10 seconds and give to baby. Super fast, and easy for those exhausting nights when you can hardly function
I did with my oldest. WIC would only give me the concentrated cans that had to be mixed and refrigerated. 10 to 15 seconds at a time only to take the chill off. My youngest used to powder, so room temp bottle water was used
No. It degrades the formula, it can release roxuns from the plastic and it can have hot spots.
You can microwave the water is a separate, microwave safe container and use to make the formula in the bottle.

It is dangerous because the formula could bet too hot. Better to heat some water in bowl and let the bottle sit in it to warm up or better yet use warm tap water to mix it.

yep! you learn how long you need to put it in for to be the exact temperatuređ we microwaved either before or after adding the formula and all our friends did the same, much quicker and less screaming time for bubsđ

Make sure the formula you are using is able to be heated. I never heated formula but I was told when I switched formula that the nutramigen couldnât b heated.
You never microwave a bottle of water and especially one for your infant! It creates hot pockets of the liquid in the bottle due to uneven heating patterns.

For 4oz 10seconds & shake for 20 sec.
I personally wouldnât. Not that itâs unhealthy, because itâs not, but microwaves actually kills some of the nutrients in the formula.
Let it sit in hot water for a couple mins or use a bottle warmer.
