TSA officers may need to test the liquids for explosives or concealed prohibited items. Although not required, to expedite the screening process, it is recommended that formula and breast milk be transported in clear, translucent bottles and not plastic bags or pouches.
First and foremost, you are allowed to bring baby formula in your carry-on bag in quantities greater than 3.4 ounces. This includes ready-to-feed formula, powdered formula, and liquid concentrate formula. It is important to note that you may be required to undergo additional screening at the security checkpoint.

Diaper bags, soft-sided cooler bags with breast milk, child safety seats, strollers and medical or mobility devices don't count toward your personal item or carry-on.
Can I bring water for baby formula on a plane? Yes! Again, water for baby formula and babies is permitted by TSA in “reasonable quantities” in carry-on bags.
Firearms, ammunition, and fireworks are prohibited, as are all knives and safety razors (including pocket knives and Swiss Army knives). Straight razors and replacement blades for straight razors are also not allowed. Most tools also cannot be packed in carry-on luggage, as they have the potential to cause harm.
Under 7 days old requires a Passenger Medical Form. Lap infants are not allowed an extra bag. Your plane ticket allows for one carry-on bag, one diaper bag, one stroller, one car seat, and a breast pump with an associated cooler, free of charge. Under 7 days old requires a pediatrician letter.
Don't forget the time you'll spend at the airport prior to the flight, and after landing at your destination, as well. A common rule of thumb is to pack one diaper per hour of travel time. It doesn't hurt to pack a few extra ones beyond the ones allotted for flight time.
A further solution is to bring a travel steriliser. There are several single bottle travel sterilisers on the market which can work in microwaves or for cold water. They can be used for dummies too. Once at your destination, ask for a large container so you can use the cold water sterilising option.
Standard strollers, folding wagons, and car seats can be used to get to your gate and then checked for free. They'll be returned to you on arrival. Collapsible strollers can be stored in-cabin. Car seats can be used onboard your flight too.
Only small, collapsible and light strollers (up to 20lbs/9kgs) can be checked at the gate. Any stroller that weighs over 20lbs/9 kgs, is too large or is non-collapsible must be checked at the ticket counter.”
They prohibit bringing large liquids through security because liquids can be used as bomb components or incendiaries. You're free to bring an empty bottle through security and fill it up on the other side. I do it often.
