Usage / Instructions
Preparing your baby's feed
Because powdered milks are not sterile, failure to follow instructions may make your baby ill.
- Wash hands and sterilise all utensils according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Boil 1 litre of freshly run water. Leave kettle to cool for 30 minutes and no longer. Measure the required amount of water (refer to feeding guide) into a sterilised bottle. Be careful of scalding. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.
- Using the scoop provided level off the powder with a clean, dry knife. Do not press/heap the powder.
- Add the correct measure of powder to the water. Adding too many or too few scoops can be harmful. Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle and shake immediately, vertically and vigorously for at least 10 seconds, until the powder is dissolved.
- Cool under running tap. Check temperature of feed. Feed immediately.
Warnings
Breast milk is best for babies and breastfeeding should continue for as long as possible. Infant formulae are suitable from birth when babies are not breastfed and should only be used on the advice of a doctor, midwife health visitor, public health nurse, dietitian or pharmacist, or other professionals responsible for maternal and child care. SMA LF is a lactose-free milk based formula for babies and young children who are intolerant to lactose or sucrose, or who are experiencing symptoms such as diarrhoea, tummy ache or wind caused by temporary lactose intolerance. It is suitable as the sole source of nutrition up to 6 months of age, and in conjunction with solid food up to 18 months of age. SMA LF is not suitable for those who are allergic to cows' milk protein, or who suffer from galactosaemia or require a galactose free diet. This product must be used under medical supervision. Thickened formula may require a fast flow-teat. Do not add extra powder or water to make 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 bottles when required. For hygienic reason, discard unfinished feed in the bottle as soon as possible. For older babies, made-up formulae can be added to food. Do not alter or add to formula unless medically directed. Do not warm feeds in microwave, hot spots may occur and cause scalding. Remember, cow's milk should not be used as a drink during the first year. 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. Always hold your baby while feeding. Do not leave baby unattended as they might choke.
