Thanks!
We have tried making it room temp but find it doesn't mix as well and like having it mixed up in the fridge for the day

I agree! Shouldn't be a problem if he doesn't mind it. I fed my son cold milk once I stopped nursing. With my daughter (she was younger at the time) I fed her formula and would keep bottled water at room temp and just mix the powdered stuff in... not cold and no warming required! Good Luck!

Nah, if he'll take it then it should be fine! I gave my kids cold formula/milk if they'd take it.

The other day he ate his peaches cold out of the fridge and his water I just take the chill off of but wondered if it might cause belly craps or diareaha if i fed him his formula cold if he will take it

Baby might not like it ice cold. They prefer warm milk. Just taking the edge off a little would be good. We keep our fridge so cold that our jug of water usually gets a layer of ice on it. ;-)
