What parents say about SMA® Follow-on Baby Milk
"I’ve started my little one on SMA pro follow on milk and I’ve seen how happy and content my child is. I have been giving it to her in the morning and evening and I definitely recommend it to all, I have tried a couple of other follow on milk but she didn’t enjoy them but this she really."
@rachya
“Recommended it to other mum’s it really is filling and hope your child will like it as much as ours did. Like the way powder dissolves, easy to use.”
@Michall1
"This is a great follow on milk that can be given to babies from 6 months onwards. I like it how the scoop is placed on top of the foil lid rather than in the powder. The milk is very easy to prepare as it dissolves quickly. I haven’t tried it myself but my child likes the taste."
@martynak1984
"I was looking to use the next stage follow on milk for my little one she was getting fed up with her normal milk i had her on. Since changing to this she’s absolutely loving it and finishing her drink up again"
@lorrainem3
"The only formula my daughter will take! We’ve had no issues with this formula and my daughter seems to enjoy it so I would recommend this brand and formula 100%!"
@erikhac
"My little one has really loved this milk (and so have I). The smell is much nicer than other brands, much creamier. It mixes really nice with breakfast cereals and porridges as well."
@daniellel224
"My little one is really fussy with formula milk having refusing to drink various brands of formula before so I was a bit worried she would refuse it, however she loved it."

How to prepare your baby’s feed
Watch our preparation video for the safe way to make SMA® Follow-on powder formula milk or follow the step-by-step instructions below.
And here is how you prepare it step by step
Whilst this product is made under strict hygienic conditions, it is not sterile. Failure to follow instructions on preparation and storage may make your baby ill.
1
Wash hands well. Wash and sterilise all utensils according to manufacturers’ instructions.
2
Boil 1 litre of fresh tap water. Allow boiled water to cool for no more than 30 minutes so the water can reach the recommended temperature of 70°C. Measure the required amount of water (see feeding guide) into a sterilised beaker/bottle, carefully – the water is hot. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.
3
Using only the scoop provided, add the correct number of scoops of powder (see feeding guide), levelling off each scoop with the back of a clean, dry knife. Store the scoop in suspension inside the can and replace lid.
4
Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle or lid on the beaker and shake well until powder is fully dissolved. Cool beaker/bottle under cold running water until lukewarm. Test temperature by shaking a few drops onto the inside of your wrist.

Yes, SMA® Follow-on Milks are suitable to use in your baby’s favourite milk-based recipes or on cereals.
Milk will remain a big part of your baby’s daily diet, providing energy and nutrients. SMA® Follow-on Milks are designed for formula-fed and combination-fed babies from 6 months onwards to complement the weaning diet.
Your baby should be able to happily switch from the old formula to the new but if you would like to ease the transition, you might prefer to change over gradually. This may allow your little one time to adjust to the new baby milk.
To transition to the new milk gradually you could replace one bottle of your baby’s current milk with one bottle of your baby’s new milk each day, keeping all the other feeds of the previous one. It may be a good idea to introduce the new feed when your little one is not too tired or irritable. Continue this way, increasing the number of feeds with new milk each day until all the feeds are with the new milk.
A change in stool consistency/frequency can sometimes happen when infants are starting or switching formula, this is perfectly normal. Also, in addition to stool changes baby can be a little unsettled and also pick up a taste difference with some changes. For further guidance read our article or contact your healthcare professional or the SMA Careline®.

All babies are different. From 6 months to 1 year, we recommend giving your baby 500-600ml of SMA® Follow-on Milk per day, either as a drink, or on cereals or mixed with food. Mix 1 scoop of powder to 30 ml (approx. 1 fl. oz.) of water
- Do not add extra powder or water to make the feeds stronger or weaker and do not press powder into scoop. Using too much or too little powder can make your baby ill.
- We recommend preparing each feed in individual beakers/bottles when required.
- For hygienic reasons, discard unfinished feed in the beaker/bottle as soon as possible.
- Made-up formulae can be poured over cereals and mixed with food.
- Do not alter or add to formulae unless medically directed.
- Do not warm feeds in a microwave, hot spots may occur and cause scalding.
- Remember, cows' milk should not be used as a drink during the first year.
