I bought a case of baby formula when the baby was born in Jan, Bc I thought why not stock up... Today I saw that this formula is expiring this month!!
What should I do? Is it safe to say give my baby?.. It's very expensive, is expired formula really dangerous? Please help..

No. It is just an arbitrary date. Its not no longer good on that date.Ask your pediatrician.
When I used to work in a pediatric office the rep from Ross labs said I can use liquid form for 6 more months and powder is generally good for much much longer.

Most dates printed are really "best by" dates, not expiration dates. I think milk is one of the few exceptions. Probably another month or so won't do any harm Especially if Its shelf-stable dry powder,
