Cow & Gate Comfort Baby Milk Powder Formula, from Birth, 800 g

Product Information

Keep in mind that lactose intolerance is not the same as a cow's milk allergy. Lactose-free formula contains cow’s milk proteins that are found in normal infant formula, so it isn't suitable for babies with a cow’s milk allergy. Toddler milk is advertised as containing much more iron than cow’s milk, but this is misleading. Cow’s milk contains very little iron and is not where you or your baby gets iron from in their diet. Iron is found in red meat, eggs, lentils and pulses, and green leafy veg. For the dietary management of colic & constipationSome babies can have immature digestive systems and may experience colic and constipation, which may require dietary management. It is important to consult a healthcare professional before using this product.

The majority of products advise on three scoops per feed. However, HiPP Organic and Aldi advise on two scoops. This will be the result of a more concentrated powder. In addition to the core ingredients, all formulas contain extra ingredients, a lot of which are the same across all the brands. These include LCPs (long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids), nucleotides and prebiotics. 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.All the brands have a follow-on formula though, and these are usually labelled as stage 2. If you still decide to use it, your child would need to be six months or older (it's not suitable from birth). Two in five parents we spoke to, with children under five, told us they've used follow-on formula. When do babies stop drinking formula? Many formulas include an additional prebiotic ingredient: oligosaccharides. These are often referred to as FOS or GOS, which are produced commercially from lactose and sucrose, or 2’-FL or LNnT, which are artificially made to mimic oligosaccharides found in breast milk. However, although they are safe to add to formula milk, there is no strong evidence to support the efficacy of these additional ingredients. IMPORTANT NOTICE: Breastfeeding is best. Cow & Gate Anti-Reflux and Cow & Gate Comfort are foods for special medical purposes. They should only be used under medical supervision, after full consideration of the feeding options available including breastfeeding. If your baby is drinking around 500-600ml of infant formula a day, they should be receiving enough vitamin D to meet their needs, so they won’t need additional drops.
