Posting here for more immediate response...
I prepped a bottle for ds and gave it to dh to fill - I didn't tell him that there were 5 scoops of formula in there, and asked him to add water - he only added 7oz instead of 10oz of water... I already gave the bottle to ds and put him down for bed and just realized this now.
Do I need to worry about this? He's not asleep yet....
HELP!

Nope- he'll be fine--so will you. Don't worry, mama!!

I can't tell you how many times the formula scoops to water ratio got screwed up with DC's... join the club!

Nope don't think you need to worry. The risk is (I think) of dehydration -- so you could give him some water if he will take it. But really it isn't an issue once in a while.

Don't worry!!

PS I laughed at 7 oz ... sounds like something my DH would do ...
