Follow the instructions precisely when preparing toddler formula. Improper preparation or storage of the prepared bottle over a longer period of time can lead to health problems, e.g. due to the growth of unwanted germs. Prepare formula before every feeding and feed immediately. Do not reuse the remaining prepared formula or leftovers. Clean bottle, teat and ring thoroughly. Close the opened bag tightly after use. Store dry and at room temperature and use within 2 weeks after opening. Do not heat organic baby food in the microwave (risk of scalding).

The recommended drinking amount and number of bottles per day are general guidelines only. Your baby does not have to drink the bottle completely. Individual deviations are completely normal.
A mother’s milk is the most natural and beneficial nourishment for your baby – including all nutrients and vitamins needed. That is why Holle recommends breastfeeding. Before you decide to use this baby formulas, read product information carefully and please consult your doctor or healthcare professional for advice.
Do not allow your baby to suck on its bottle continuously to prevent possible damage to teeth. Do not let your child suck the bottle permanently and change to cup-feeding as soon as possible. Pay special attention to your baby’s dental hygiene once his or her first tooth has come through.
