Should i refrigerate nursery water

I don't. I know the Gerber and Beechnut ones say to refrigerate after opening but the nursery one doesn't so that is the one I buy. I use it to make DD's cereal and to fill her sippy cup and she likes it room temp. We go through it in less than a week so I figure it can't be that bad.

My first baby was formula fed after 6 months and I always used tap water for his formula too. Baby water is probably a gimmick. Only reason I decided to use it is because I was afraid the Dasani water I used have added stuff that isn't good for him and wasn't sure what brand is good. So I decided to get water from the baby section only because I was thinking they can't sell water that are bad for babies And I don't trust the water from my house that is why it isn't an option.

Our old house had a well so there was no fluoride in it when I was making formula with it. We strive to provide you with a high quality community experience.

Original poster's comments 2. I use only Nursery water for my baby but we don't refrigerate it. My baby has never been sick and we have been using it room temp all along.

A gallon typically lasts me almost a week so not sure what happens after 7 days, but most likely it is fine. I was told you don't have to refrigerate it or boil it although you probably should boil tap water. It only costs about 99 cents a gallon when it's on sale at my grocery store, so I don't really see it as cost prohibitive compared to the time it takes to boil tap water.
