Spouse has been over-adding formula

look.. it's FINE. calm down. STOP IT.

You should always follow the recipe on the can unless if the doctor says otherwise. 2X formula is probably never done. But!!! Thickening formula is a thing for babies that won't eat very many ounces.. because it helps get the proper calories into them.

In weeks 11-16 for my baby, the doctor told us to take 5ounces of water, and add 3 scoops of formula.. (instead of 6 ounces and 3 scoops). Because we were working through a feeding aversion and he was only drinking 10-14 ounces a day.

Your baby is fine.. just go back to the correct formula.. she's just been getting extra calories, and her poop has probably been a little thicker.
