b. Heat the water on the highest level of the stove until the water reaches a rolling boil, that is, when the water has large bubbles.
c. Stay close by because this should only take 3-5 minutes. Remove the milk jar from the boiling water immediately after the water comes to a rolling boil.
d. Place the jar in a container of cool water, or let it stand alone to cool until it reaches room temperature. Protect the milk as it cools and during storage by placing a clean lid or small plate on it.
e. Heated milk can be fed to the baby safely anytime within the next 6 hours.
f. Always feed the baby using a clean, open cup. Even a newborn baby quickly learns how to drink from a cup.
e. Avoid using bottles and nipples. They are difficult to clean and may make your baby sick. However, if you still feel the need to use bottles, make sure to clean and sterilize them after each use.
