> current recommendations are to heat cold water to boiling to mix formula then allow the formula to cool down
The reason boiling water prior to mixing is recommended is that powdered formula isn't sterile. Mixing it with boiled water kills whatever bacteria has had a chance to grow. It's not an issue with the water, which is a common misconception (not that you said anything about this, just... since we're on the topic for whoever's reading). Bacterial growth is more of an issue for premature or otherwise health-compromised newborns; most healthy, full term babies will be able to digest the bacteria with little or no issue. If you're concerned, check with your pediatrician! Mine didn't stress it for my son (though we used RTF for a few weeks in the beginning because it was just plain easier), but I know others that have.
You can get around the boiling issue by bringing Ready to Feed (RTF) formula (in whatever brand you choose) with you to the hospital and using it at home until given the all clear by your pediatrician to use powder.
