Please read this important notice first
Consult a healthcare professional to make an informed choice on feeding your baby milks & weaning onto solid foods.
Breastfeeding is best for babies and provides many benefits. Combining breast feeding with bottle feeding in the first weeks of life may reduce the supply of your own breast milk, and reversing the decision not to breastfeed is difficult. If you choose to formula feed, you should follow manufacturer’s instructions for preparation and use carefully.
