Use and Storage
Please follow preparation and feeding instructions carefully; failure to do so may make your baby ill, as powdered milks are not sterile.
1 Wash hands and sterilise all equipment according to the manufacturers' instructions.
2 Boil 1 litre of freshly run water and leave to cool for no longer than 30 minutes. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.
3 Measure the required amount of water into a sterilised bottle (referring to the Feeding Guide).
4 Using the scoop provided add the correct number of scoops of powder - 1 level scoop of powder to each fluid ounce of water (approx 30ml). Level off the powder using the scoop leveller. Do not press the powder.
5 Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle and shake well until all the powder has dissolved (approx 15 seconds).
6 Cool to drinking temperature (approx 37ºC) by holding the bottle under cold running water. Always test the temperature of the milk before feeding. Feed immediately.

Important Feeding information
HiPP Combiotic® comfort formula is thicker than standard infant formulas so may flow better through a faster flow teat.
Only use the scoop provided in the pack
Do not make feeds weaker or stronger than indicated by adding extra water/scoops, and do not add anything else to milk feeds
For hygiene reasons, always freshly prepare feeds and do not prepare in advance. Use made up feeds within 2 hours of preparation. Discard anything leftover at the end of the feed.
Do not heat feeds in a microwave, hot spots may occur which could cause scalding
A responsible person should be with your baby during feeding
Please clean your baby's teeth regularly when they appear
Introduce a cup or beaker as soon as possible to prevent prolonged/frequent contact of teeth with milk feeds which may increase the risk of tooth decay

If you switch to HiPP Combiotic® comfort milk your baby's stool consistency may change. This is typical for products that contain oligosaccharides, which may make baby's stool softer.
