How to prepare Aptamil Growing Up Milk 2-3 years

Step 1

Use bottled water or water from a bowser (a water tank provided by water companies) and bring it to a rolling boil. Leave it covered to cool for no more than half an hour.

Step 2

If there’s no electricity or gas to boil with, bottled table, spring or mineral water can be used and the prepared formula should be used immediately. The use of unboiled bowser water should be avoided.

Step 3

Some bottled water labelled as ‘natural mineral water’ may have high levels of sodium or sulphate. Read the label carefully and check that the figure for sodium (Na) is not higher than 200mg per litre and sulphate (SO or SO4) is not higher than 250mg per litre. If it is, then try to use another water. If no other water is available, then use this water for as short a time as possible.

Step 4

Follow the normal instructions for making up the formula.

Step 1

Shake the carton of Aptamil Growing Up Milk before opening. Using the feeding guide, pour the required amount of milk into a clean beaker.

Step 2

Aptamil Growing Up Milk can be given at room temperature, or warmed if desired. If warmed, check temperature of drink before drinking.

Step 3

For hygiene reasons, discard unfinished milk in the beaker as soon as possible, always within 2 hours.
