1 Prep: Wash hands and sterilise all utensils.
2 Water: Boil 1 litre of freshly run water in a kettle then leave to cool for 30 minutes and no more so the water can reach the recommended temperature of 70C. When ready, pour the right amount of water into a sterilised bottle, as per the feeding guide. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.
3 Powder: Tear off the top of the sachet and without touching the tabs, add the correct number to the water. Adding too many or too few tabs could make your baby ill.
4 Shake: Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle and shake straight away. For best results, shake vertically and vigorously for at least 10 seconds, until all of the powder is dissolved.
5 Cool the bottle by placing under a cold running tap or in a bowl of cold water, and check the temperature by placing a few drops on the inside of your wrist. The formula should feel lukewarm, but not hot. If possible, we'd recommend starting the feed straight away and always finishing within 2 hours.
How to Store Your Tabs
When you do not use all the tabs in a sachet, fold the top of the sachet.
Fasten it with a clip or store in an air-tight container. (Clip not included)
After opening the sachet, use the remaining tabs as soon as possible, within one week.
Important Feeding Advice
Do not feed babies undissolved tabs.
Handle with care. Tabs may break when dropped or held too firmly.
Make up each feed as required.
For hygiene reasons, do not store made up feeds, discard unfinished feeds as soon as possible, and always within 2 hours.
Do not heat feeds in a microwave, hot spots may occur and cause scalding.
Never add extra tabs or anything else to your baby's feed.
Never leave your baby alone during feeding.
Follow the preparation instructions at all times, even when on the go.
Important Notice
Breastfeeding is best. Infant milk is suitable from birth, when babies are not breastfed and should only be used on the advice of a doctor, dietitian, pharmacist, or other professional responsible for maternal and child care.
When bottle feeding do not allow prolonged or frequent contact of milk feeds with your baby's teeth as this increases the risk of tooth decay. Ask your healthcare professional or dentist for advice. Make sure your baby's teeth are cleaned after the last feed at night.
Hi, going on holiday soon and wanted to know if anyones used the aptamil 1 tablets if so are maybe easier to pack in a suitcase than the big cartons and do you get as many ounces out of them as you would the normal powder? Overall what are your thoughts?
Sorry I've not used them before.
But they have 120 tabs?
So for a 5 ounce feed and up to 8 feeds a day that would last- 3 days.
Obviously their vacuum packed so should take up less room. But how long does a normal tub last you?
One tablet is one ounce/ scoop of powder.
So if you go to the shop. And you know long a tub lasts you. You can compare sizes of the packs and see how many tubs you'd need compared to packs of the tabs.
Our Aptamil pre-measured tabs contain all vitamins, minerals and nutrients required by the UK and EU legislation. Aptamil First Infant Milk and Follow On Milk Pre-Measured Tabs contain long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and our blend of long chain galacto-oligosaccharides and short chain fructo-oligosaccharides (scGOS/lcFOS).
The formulations used to make the tabs are slightly different from the formulations used in our existing Aptamil First Infant Milk and Aptamil Follow On Milk with PronutraTM Advance. Aptamil First Infant Milk and Aptamil Follow On Milk with PronutraTM Advance contain a fermented blend of ingredients however our new Aptamil pre-measured tabs do not.
