A: the scoop is 0.16 oz and there are 31.7 oz in the container. Divide that and it is 198 scoops
A: Three 4oz bottles over 11 days is 132 total oz. Four 4oz bottles over 11 days is 176 total oz. That's a huge difference between 132 scoops and 176 scoops of formula.
A: hi, how many total # of scoops are present in one can ? what is total volume? then I can calculate my need accordingly
A: Hi, thank you for your question. Our formula is prepared using 1 scoop per 1oz of water. As every baby is different and we suggest following your baby’s feeding cues, this will really depend on the feeding demands of your little one. As an example though, at a rate of 3 to 4 4oz bottles a day a can should last 11 days.
A: Hi! Our formula should be prepared using 1scoop per 1oz of water. Don’t worry about needing twice the number of tins though as our scoops are half the size of the standard US ones. I hope that helps you with your prep and we wish you well in your continued feeding journey.
A: you need to use the scoop provided with the formula. this formula is 1 scoop for 1 oz of watwe
A: i would assume so but I'm sure it'll have instructions on the can
A: hi! so I figured it out and yes if you use a scoop from a US brand of formula it'll just be the 1 scoop per 2oz so 4oz 2 scoops 6 oz 3 scoops but again that's if you're using a US formula scoop(:
A: Hello, As you may know, Kendamil is a UK company and our instructions state that you should prepare each bottle with freshly boiled water, following the direction on the can, right before feeding. This is in line with the advice given by the UK National Health Service - regardless of the manufacturer. We do understand that this differs slightly from the advice that is given by the FDA and would therefore suggest checking with your paediatrician for any further clarification if you have any concerns.
A: Not necessary if your baby was full-term and is not immunocompromised. You can use the same water you have been using!
A: Hi! Our formula is indeed prepared using 1scoop per 1oz of water. Don’t worry about needing twice the number of tins though as our scoops are half the size of the standard US ones. I hope that helps you with your prep and we wish you well in your continued feeding journey.
A: 1 scoop per oz yes because their scoop is smaller but if you use a US formula scoop it'll be 1scoop per 2oz so 4oz 2scoops etc but that's only if you're using a US formula scoop
A: Hi! Our stage 1 milk is perfectly suitable for babies up to 12 months old and as with all of our available formulas it meets the FDA guidelines. In fact, The World Health Organisation actually encourage parents to use it stating that it has a perfectly adequate amount of nutrients. We are currently working really hard to bring as much of our infant formula to the US as possible to ensure everyone has access to our Stage 1 milk. This means we shall be focussing on the supply of our Classic and Organic Infant First Milks for the time being.
A: Stage 1 is technically for up to 12 months, so you can feed your 6-12 month old baby Stage 1 formula.
A: Hi Mx, thank you for your query, and happy to clear up any concern. Tinplate (steel) which is used for Kendamil is the best in class packaging solution designed specially for and used by premium infant formula companies around the globe. All of our Kendamil products are also regularly tested to make sure they never exceed limits for heavy metals, which is a measure that is strictly regulated by the European Union.
A: Hi Tati, All Kendamil formulas meet all nutritional requirements set. Under FDA code and regulation for infant formula, formulas must have between 0.15 mg to 3 mg of iron per 100 kcal. Additionally, if a formula has less than 1 mg of iron per 100 kcal the formula is required to be clearly labelled “Additional iron may be necessary” otherwise the label can say “Infant formula with iron”. Our baby milks do not require the labelling “additional iron may be necessary” since they all have at least 1 mg of iron per 100 kcal as aforementioned.
A: Our stage 1 milk is suitable for babies from birth through to 12 months old, meeting both EU and FDA infant feeding regulations. Although there is a Stage 2, The World Health Organisation encourages parents to continue to use Stage 1 given that it has a perfectly adequate amount of nutrients. Our Stage 2 formula differs in that it has slightly more iron to meet the higher iron demands of an infant once they turn 6 months old. Our little ones are expected to already be eating solids from the age of 6 months and these will naturally make up the difference between the two stages. So infant nutritionists would advise incorporating iron-rich food into baby’s diet - regardless of what type of formula or breastmilk they are on.
A: Hi Peach P, as you may know, Kendamil is a UK company and our instructions state that you should prepare each bottle with freshly boiled water, following the direction on the can, right before feeding. This is in line with the advice given by the UK National Health Service - regardless of the manufacturer or origin. We do understand that this differs slightly from the advice that is given by the FDA and would therefore suggest checking with your paediatrician for any further clarification if you have any concerns. That said, you can store freshly-boiled water in a Thermos, which will stay sufficiently warm until you need to make up a bottle. Just make sure that the water isn’t too hot, even after several hours in the flask!
A: Hi Tasha and thanks for the question. Fortification should be done under the guidance and instruction of a medical professional. If a doctor has told you to mix powdered formula with your breast milk to make your breast milk higher in calories, then you follow those instructions. If you were instructed to make separate formula bottles at a high-calorie load, then do that. Although we know our baby milks inside and out, we are not medical professionals. Please always consult with your HCP.
