900g Good Start® 1 Powder = 6.9L yield

Carefully read the directions for preparation and use on the label and follow them accurately. Your baby’s health depends on this. Before using infant formula for the first time, ask your baby’s doctor about infant formula, including how much to feed.

First and foremost, always sterilize your bottles,nipples, rings and all preparation utensils by placing them in a pot with boiling water, boiling for 5 minutes, cleaning the area where you’ll be prepping things and washing your hands. Do not use a microwave oven to sterilize bottles or utensils.

Once prepared, feed formula immediately. Any unfinished formula that is not consumed by your baby within 1 hour must be discarded.

Powder instructions

  • Bring water to a rolling boil for at least 2 minutes and let it cool to lukewarm or body temperature (37°C) before using.
  • Pour measured, sterilized water into bottle. (Always put the water in your bottle first—it’ll help the powder dissolve better as you add it, rather than trying to add water to a bottle that you’ve already put powder in. For best mixing results, use lukewarm water prior to adding powder.)
  • Add the appropriate number of scoops and powder, as directed on the label. Do not over-dilute or under-dilute unless directed by a healthcare professional.
  • Cap bottle and shake immediately until powder is completely dissolved.
  • Test the temperature of the warm formula before feeding.

See Preparation Chart for proper powder to water ratio, and Preparation Instructions on packaging for detailed instructions.
