baby formula
Bottled milk substitute
Baby formula is a manufactured substitute for breast milk, designed to provide complete nutrition for infants.
It typically comes as a powder mixed with water, though ready-to-feed liquid versions exist.
Parents may use formula by choice or necessity—when breastfeeding isn't possible or preferred: We switched to formula after six weeks.
Also called infant formula or simply formula.
