Milk powder is the baby's food, just like the delicious food we eat every day, it also needs to be made.

Tips for mixing milk powder
step 1 cleaning tool
There are bacteria on your hands, so you can't directly mix milk powder for your baby! Wash your hands first, and clean and disinfect the bottle, nipple, bottle cap and mixing tool as above, and remove the residual milk dirt in the bottle. Please choose a natural and nontoxic detergent when cleaning, or it will be bad if the baby eats it.
step 2 Boil hot water
Pure water/mineral water can't be directly used to make milk powder, so it should be heated first. Bring the water to the boil. Pay attention at this time. Boiling water can't be used to brew milk powder, otherwise it will destroy the protein in milk powder. Be sure to wait until the water temperature cools to about 4 degrees! !

Finally, let's use a picture to review the frequently asked questions about feeding milk powder
1. Q: My baby has been mixed with the Australian etamet since the birth of the month, but what is the reason for always pulling green poop?
A: It should be that the iron content in milk powder is relatively high, and the baby's digestive function is poor and it can't be absorbed completely. Excess iron makes the stool green, which is a normal phenomenon, as long as it doesn't cause diarrhea or constipation. 2. Q: My baby always has abdominal distension and diarrhea after drinking milk, but it is not lactose intolerance. Can I drink A2 in this case?
a: if the diagnosis is not lactose intolerance, you can try it. If the symptoms disappear or ease after drinking A2, it means that the baby is intolerant of A1 protein in milk. If there is no improvement, you need to stop using it and continue to seek medical help.
3. Q: Excuse me, my baby ate Bellamy. At first, it was imported, and the smell was normal. After forty days, it was changed to Australian direct mail, which seemed to be different from the imported one. Then the baby was allergic and changed it back. Now the smell of the baby is green every time, and it is hard, a bit like plasticine. What's the matter?
a: the baby's own intestine is fragile, so it is necessary to change milk step by step and not to change milk powder frequently. Baby's green stool is because the baby excretes excess iron. As long as the baby's spirit and activities are normal, there is no need to worry. If the stool is hard, it means that there is anger in the intestines. Be sure to drink more water for your baby.
4. Q: I want to add probiotics to my baby. Which probiotic is better?
a: if you want to add probiotics to your baby, 6g of LifeSpace probiotic powder (-3 years old baby) is very good. It can be used with milk powder.
5. Q: Pure breast milk is 4 months old. I recently added milk powder, but it was fine a few days ago. Just these two days, I suddenly drank milk powder, and one or two red packets appeared on my mouth, which disappeared in about 1 minutes. Is it an allergic reaction? Do I have to change to deep hydrolyzed milk powder?
A: It is recommended to take the baby to the hospital for examination, so as to determine whether the baby is allergic to milk protein, because one of the reasons for the baby's eczema is allergies, and allergies may not necessarily be caused by protein, but also fish, shrimp, crabs, eggs and the like. Breast milk is the best taboo. There are also irritating foods, so it is very important to find allergens, so as to prescribe the right medicine. In addition, it is necessary to take good care of the baby's body
6. Q: The baby has been breast-fed with milk powder since birth, and a2 brought back from Australia, weighing only 14 kg at 6 months, has not gained weight from 4 months to 6 months, is in a good mental state, is relatively tall, looks thin and wants to change milk. Do you have any suggestions?
A: The baby's weight is not up to the normal standard. Although its growth and development are regular, it is influenced by many factors within a certain range. Only by considering different individual influencing factors can it be judged whether it is normal. As long as the baby is in a good state, has a good appetite, has normal urination and defecation, and has normal growth and development, and is free from diseases, it means that the baby is healthy. You don't need to change milk powder, and usually pay attention to increasing nutrition and adding it appropriately.
7. Q: My family is more than six months old. Since I changed my breast milk, my stool has always been green. My breast milk was broken for more than five months, and my height is not up to standard. What's more, I have been suffering from flatulence, and I still lack iron since I was born. How can I break it?
a: green stool and flatulence are mostly caused by indigestion. You can add some probiotics to your baby, and 6g LifeSpace probiotic powder (-3 years old baby) is very good. In addition, now that the baby is more than six months old, it is necessary to add some complementary foods to the baby in time, such as rice flour, fruit puree, vegetable puree, etc., so as to fully ensure all kinds of nutrients needed by the baby's body.
8. Q: My baby is mixed-fed. It's 79 days now. Is it normal to defecate once every four days since half a month ago?
A: It is normal for babies to have this kind of situation. The defecation time of newly born babies varies from 1 to 3 minutes, because this is related to the recovery degree of the baby's navel, which varies from person to person. If the baby is constipated, it will definitely cry, and the stool will get stuck around and it will not come down. In this case, you need to take the baby to the hospital for treatment.
9. Q: My baby has been mixed-fed since the birth of the month, but what is the reason for always pulling green poop?
A: It should be that the iron content in milk powder is relatively high. The baby's digestive function is poor and it can't be absorbed completely. The excess iron makes the stool green, which is a normal phenomenon. As long as it doesn't cause diarrhea or constipation, it's OK.
1. Q: My baby is a premature baby, and now it's almost three months old. I am mixed-fed, eating Abbott's premature milk powder, because I am afraid that the baby will not adapt, so I don't change milk powder.
a: the characteristic of premature milk powder is that it can promote growth. The low-weight formula of premature infant milk powder is as follows: correct the gestational age for 2 months or feed it until the baby weighs 4 ~ 5 kg. As long as the baby's height and weight reach the standard during physical examination, it can be replaced by ordinary milk powder, and a2 milk powder can be used. Pay attention to the transition of changing milk powder slowly, so as not to cause discomfort to the baby's stomach. Baby changing milk powder should be carried out alternately and gradually, and the whole conversion time usually lasts about 7 days.
