This feeding guide is a general guide only. Every baby is different; your baby may need more or less infant formula. Newborn babies may not drink the full amount in the first weeks. Babies over 6 months should be offered solid food in addition to infant formula.

Directions for use

  1. Step 1
    1.

    Always wash hands before preparing feeds. Clean and then sterilise all utensils with an approved steriliser or by boiling in a large pot with a lid, on the stove for 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2
    2.

    Boil safe drinking water and allow to cool for 30 minutes. Consult feeding guide. Measure the required volume of cooled boiled water into a sterilised feeding bottle.

  3. Step 3
    3.

    Use only the enclosed scoop, fill scoop and level off using the built-in leveller on the can. Avoid compacting powder.

  4. Step 4
    4.

    Add the exact amount of powder to the water in the bottle. Always add 1 level scoop of powder for each 50mL of water. Cap the bottle and mix thoroughly by shaking gently or swirling the bottle to dissolve the powder.

  5. Step 5
    5.

    Check the prepared feed is at the right temperature by testing on your wrist. Feed your baby immediately. Discard any unfinished feed within 1 hour (do not store).

It is safer to prepare each bottle as needed and use immediately after it is prepared. If a bottle of made-up formula is to be prepared in advance, store in the refrigerator and use within 24 hours. Discard any refrigerated formula not used within 24 hours. For more information on formula preparation, visit our website.

Supporting Your Family's Feeding Choices

We believe breastfeeding is best to provide ideal nutrition for babies, and other important health benefits. Good nutrition for mums is important throughout pregnancy and whilst breastfeeding. However, we understand breastfeeding may not be an option for everyone. ​To support you on your feeding journey, we recommend speaking to a healthcare professional. Introducing formula either partially or exclusively may reduce breast milk supply, which isn’t easy to re-establish. It is also important to consider the social and financial impacts of formula, such as potential cost of providing formula until your baby is 12 months old. ​When using infant formula, always follow the preparation instructions carefully. Improper use can make your baby unwell. Information about our infant formula products is for educational and informational purposes only.
