For babies aged above 12 months, it is advisable to prepare Aptamil formula for an older baby and transition up a stage to the next formula (Aptamil Gold+ Stage 3) which offers age-appropriate nutrition.
If you are mixing Aptamil formula but your baby has already started to transition to purees or solids, it is common to replace 1 daily bottle for 1 full jar of puree or 1 full portion of solids.
If your baby does not finish a full bottle once it is prepared, most parents will still count the feed towards the daily number of total feeds. Feeding amounts and daily servings are general guidelines. Every baby’s appetite is different, so adjust as needed while maintaining a balanced diet and healthy routine.
The above preparation instructions for Aptamil Gold+ Stage 2 lists details found on the most recent packaging style. However, these mixing instructions may be updated at any time by Aptamil, so double check your can to see if you may have an even newer packaging style.
