Preparation and Usage
Preparing Your Baby's Feed
Because powdered milks are not sterile, failure to follow instructions may make your baby ill.
After 6 months, once weaning is established, we recommend giving your baby about 1 pint (500-600ml) per day.
Aptamil® Advanced Follow On Milk helps meet the increased nutritional needs of infants from 6 to 12 months.

Important Feeding
Make up each feed as required.
For hygiene reasons, do not store made up feeds, discard unfinished feeds as soon as possible, and always within 2 hours.
Do not heat feeds in a microwave, hot spots may occur and cause scalding.
Never add extra scoops or anything else to your baby's feed.
Never leave your baby alone during feeding.
