FAQs

What age is Cow & Gate 3 Toddler Milk suitable for?

This formula is suitable for toddlers aged 1 to 2 years (12 to 24 months) as part of a varied, balanced diet.

How many feeds does one 800g pack provide?

Each 800g pack provides approximately 33 feeds, based on a standard preparation.

Can I prepare the milk in advance?

It is recommended to prepare each feed as required and use it within 2 hours. Do not store made-up formula.

Why should I not use a microwave to warm the formula?

Microwaving can create hot spots in the milk, posing a risk of scalding your toddler. Always use a beaker and test the temperature on your wrist.

What are GOS and FOS in the ingredients?

GOS (Galacto-oligosaccharides) and FOS (Fructo-oligosaccharides) are types of prebiotic fibres that can help support gut health.

Is this milk a replacement for solid food?

No, Cow & Gate 3 Toddler Milk is designed to supplement a toddler's diet. It should be part of a healthy and balanced weaning diet, not a substitute for solid foods.

How should I store the powder?

Store the unopened powder in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, reseal the pack and use within 4 weeks.

Troubleshooting

Powder not dissolving properly

Ensure water is at the correct temperature (cooled boiled water, not too hot or cold) and shake the beaker vigorously for at least 10 seconds. Check that you are using the correct scoop size and levelling it off correctly.

Formula appears lumpy

This can sometimes happen if the powder is not fully dissolved. Continue shaking vigorously. Ensure there are no large clumps of powder sticking to the scoop or sides of the container.

Toddler experiencing digestive upset (gas, constipation)

Introduce the milk gradually if your toddler is new to it. Ensure the preparation is correct. Consult with a healthcare professional if the issue persists, as it could be related to other dietary factors.

Feed is too hot or too cold

Always test the temperature on your wrist before feeding. Ensure water is cooled boiled water, not freshly boiled. Avoid microwaving.
