HiPP Comfort milk is a nutritionally complete milk formula that’s suitable for the dietary management of colic and constipation from birth.

Under medical supervision, it can be used as the sole source of nutrition for a baby, or as part of a varied weaning diet when introduced at around six months.

Please speak to your healthcare professional for advice before use.

HiPP Comfort milk is a nutritionally complete milk formula which is suitable for the dietary management of colic and constipation from birth.

Comfort Milk is classed as a “food for special medical purposes” and for this reason should only be used under medical supervision. It should only be used after discussing the best management of your baby’s feeding problems with your healthcare professional.

Comfort milk is suitable from birth until 1 year of age, but very often symptoms of colic and constipation can start to subside as the baby gets older, their gut matures and also once weaning is established. You should consult with your own healthcare professional before starting to use Comfort milk, and they would also be able to advise when it's best to move your baby off of this milk.

Feeding problems are common in babies, and colic and constipation are amongst the more common problems experienced. Comfort milk is a specially developed formula with a reduced lactose content and hydrolysed protein, which makes it suitable for the dietary management of problems such as colic and constipation.

The amount of milk your baby will need will vary depending on their age and weight. Newborns generally only need a small amount but this will grow as they get older and bigger.

Most babies will fall into their own feeding pattern and routine and you should feed your baby when they show signs of being hungry. Don’t ignore your baby’s hunger cues to stick to a strict regime.

When your baby is first born, they will usually only take small amounts of milk. Once they are about a week old, they will need between 150 ml and 200 ml per kilogram of their body weight over a 24-hour period, until they are around 6 months old. This means a baby that weighs 5 kg or 11 lb will need between 750 ml and 1 litre of formula milk per day. How much formula they will need will depend on how heavy they are and, of course, all babies are different and some will have bigger appetites than others.

You may find there are times when your baby wants to bottle feed more often than usual. This might be because they are teething or feeling unwell, or they may be experiencing a growth spurt.

If you have any concerns about how much to feed your baby, chat with your healthcare professional who will be able to advise you further.

All milk formula feeds should be made up following the instructions on the packaging. These have been developed in line with NHS guidelines to make sure milk feeds are made as safely as possible.

First things first – start by washing your hands and making sure that all equipment is thoroughly washed and sterilised following the manufacturer’s instructions. Equipment should be sterilised until your baby is at least 12 months old.

Boil 1 litre of freshly-run tap water and leave to cool for no longer than 30 minutes. It needs to stay at a high temperature of around 70˚C. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.

Measure the required amount of water into a sterilised bottle, following the feeding guide on the pack.

Using the scoop provided, add the right number of scoops of powder – one level scoop of powder for each fluid ounce of water (approx. 30 ml). Level off the powder with the back of a clean dry knife, but don't press the powder down into the scoop.

Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle and shake well until all the powder has dissolved (this should take approx. 15 seconds).

Cool the milk to drinking temperature (approx. 37°C) by holding the bottle under cold running water. ALWAYS test the temperature of the milk before feeding by dripping a bit onto the inside of your wrist; the milk should feel warm, not hot.

You can start introducing a cup or beaker rather than a bottle after the age of around 6 months.

Note: Our Anti-Reflux Specialist Formula has different mixing instructions and it is, therefore, important you follow the guidance on the packaging, otherwise this product may not mix to the consistency required.

Once a bottle of formula powder has been made up, it can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 hours. Any unused feed in that bottle after this time should be discarded.

The number of bottles made from an 800gm box of formula milk will depend on the size of the bottle that you are making as well as the formula you are using.

On the back of the boxes, the guidance will confirm the weight of powder per scoop and if you divide that number into 800gm, this will give you the approximate number of scoops per box.

As an example: First Infant Milk – 800gm divided by 4.3gm per scoop = approximately 186 scoops.If you are using 5 scoops per feed (150ml of water) then divide 186 by 5 = approximately 37 bottles of 150ml per box.
