Product details
HiPP Combiotic Comfort From Birth Onwards 800g
Why choose HiPP Combiotic comfort formula?
It is quite common for a baby's digestive system to be immature in the first few months, which means they may suffer from wind, colic or constipation. These can have many causes including a temporary inability to digest lactose and/or protein. HiPP Comfort formula is nutritionally complete and has been specially developed with less lactose, hydrolysed protein, fibres and a special fat blend. T
These make the milk easier to digest than a standard infant formula. Colic can have many causes, including a temporary difficulty in digesting lactose, and usually resolves itself by the time a baby is 4-6 months old. If you are concerned that your baby has colic or constipation, or have any other feeding concerns, please speak to your healthcare professional or pharmacist.
Key Features:
Reduce lactose content
Hydrolysed protein which is easier to digest than intact protein
Special fat blend based on breastmilk as the ideal model
LCP (Omega 3 & 6) these fatty acids are particularly important in the first months of a baby's life as they don't produce enough LCPs on their own

How to use
Preparation and Usage
Preparing the feed
Please follow preparation and feeding instructions carefully; failure to do so may make your baby ill, as powdered milks are not sterile.
Wash hands and sterilise all equipment according to the manufacturers' instructions.
Boil 1 litre of freshly run water and leave to cool for no longer than 30 minutes. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.
Measure the required amount of water into a sterilised bottle (referring to the Feeding Guide).
Using the scoop provided add the correct number of scoops of powder - 1 level scoop of powder to each fluid ounce of water (approx 30ml). Level off the powder using the scoop leveller. Do not press the powder.
Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle and shake well until all the powder has dissolved (approx 15 seconds).
Cool to drinking temperature (approx 37ºC) by holding the bottle under cold running water. Always test the temperature of the milk before feeding. Feed immediately.
