    I have using 2 baby bottles by Morison ( indian company). Problem is just noticed that they have wrong markings of oz. For both the bottles are 5 oz bottles, but one has markings till 4.5 and the other till 5. ( What i feel is they put the markings begining lower so that all 5 oz markings could fit in one, and the other has markings starting a little higher) . To check i pored water till 3 oz in one ( the on having till 4.5 oz) and then poured this water to the other bottle ( the one having till 5 oz). Guess what ? The water came up till 3.5 oz now. WRONG READING for one of them is apparent.
    PROBLEM - means that either been overdiluting or under diluting the formula milk.

    Where can i send the complain, because i think this is a serious issue?

    Especially when new born babies with delicate digestion are concerned the quality should be high.

    Good job... Is there a weights and measures department for your State Government, they usually are a part of the public Health department (at least in Tamil Nadu). I would send a complaint to them. Recalls are not common here in India and consumer service is next to nothing. So I would go where someone can take a quick action. Are there consumer organisations in Kolkata that take up cases like this. Consumer Association of India should have a wing in every major city.
    Also, you will need to measure out the water separately to 4 oz (or whatever measure) then add the prescribed amount of formula powder mix it in a separate container and then pour it into your bottle. (This was the advice given to us. But it has been three years now, I wonder if I remember right.)
