How to use
Preparation and Usage
Preparing your baby's feed
Whilst this product is made under strict hygienic conditions, it is not sterile. Failure to follow instructions on preparation and storage may make your baby ill.
1. Wash hands well. After 6 months of age, if you are using a beaker it is not necessary to sterilise equipment, though you should ensure everything has been fully cleaned. If you are using a bottle and teat, sterilise all utensils according to manufacturers' instructions.
2. Boil 1 litre of fresh tap water. Allow boiled water to cool for no more than 30 minutes. Measure 180 ml (approx. 6 fl. oz) of water into a beaker or bottle, carefully - the water is hot. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water. Using the scoop provided, add 6 scoops of powder, levelling off each scoop with the back of a clean dry knife.
3. Place a lid on the beaker, or teat and cap on the bottle, and shake well. Cool beaker or bottle under cold running water or in a bowl or jug of cold water until lukewarm. Test temperature by shaking a few drops onto the inside of your wrist.
Feeding guide from 6 months +
1 serving = 200 ml: 1 beaker/bottle, Amount of Water: 180ml, 6 fl. oz. (approx.), Number of scoops of powder: 6
All babies are different but try to ensure that from 6 months to 1 year your baby has 500 - 600 ml of SMA® Pro Follow-on Milk per day, either as a drink, on cereals or mixed with food. Mix 1 scoop of powder to 30 ml (appro. 1 fl. oz) of water.
Important Feeding Information
Do not add extra powder or water to make the feeds stronger or weaker and do not press powder into scoop. Using too much or too little powder can make your baby ill.
We recommend preparing each feed in individual beakers/bottles when required.
For hygienic reasons, discard unfinished feed in the beaker/bottle as soon as possible, and always within 2 hours.
Made-up SMA Pro Follow-on Milk can be poured over cereals and mixed with food.
Never add any food to the milk in your baby's beaker/bottle.
Do not warm feeds in a microwave, hot spots may occur and cause scalding.
Remember, cows' milk should not be used as a drink during the first year.
Storage

Hazards and Cautions
Important notice
Breast milk is best for babies and breastfeeding should continue for as long as possible. SMA PRO Follow-on Milk is only suitable for babies over 6 months as part of a mixed diet. It should not be used as a substitute for breast milk during the first 6 months.
The decision to start weaning or to use this product before 6 months, should be made only on the advice of a doctor, midwife, health visitor, public health nurse, dietitian or pharmacist, based on baby's individual needs.
When bottle-feeding, do not allow prolonged or frequent contact of milk feeds with teeth as this increases the risk of tooth decay. Ask your healthcare professional or dentist for advice.
Never leave your baby alone during feeding as there is a risk they might choke.

Nutritional Reference Value (NRV) information is based on the typical composition of the product. Guideline daily amounts are those for a typical adult (men and women).
