Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions below
What is the difference between Stage PRE and Stage 1 formula?
In European organic formulas, Stage PRE is designed to be the closest match to breast milk, using only lactose as a carbohydrate source. Stage 1 is also for newborns but often contains mild organic starches (like maltodextrin) to help hungrier babies feel full for longer. If your baby is under 3 months or has a sensitive stomach, we typically recommend starting with Stage PRE before moving to Stage 1.
Can I supplement breastfeeding with Stage 1 Organic Formula?
Absolutely. Many parents use a "combo-feeding" approach. European Stage 1 formulas are ideal for this because they avoid the corn syrups and cane sugars found in many US/Canadian brands, which can lead to nipple confusion or a preference for overly sweet formula. The clean, lactose-based profile of brands like Kendamil or HiPP makes the transition between breast and bottle much more seamless for the baby.
How do I know if my newborn is reacting poorly to a new formula?
It is normal for a baby’s stool to change color or consistency when starting a new formula. However, signs of a true sensitivity include excessive crying (colic), skin rashes, extreme gas, or forceful vomiting. If you notice these, you may want to explore a Goat Milk formula or an HA (Hypoallergenic) Stage 1 option, which features hydrolyzed proteins that are much easier for a newborn's developing gut to break down.
hy are European Stage 1 formulas considered "cleaner" than North American brands?
The primary difference lies in the strict EU organic certification. European Stage 1 formulas are prohibited from using corn syrup, glucose solids, or sucrose as carbohydrate sources—relying instead on organic lactose. Additionally, EU standards mandate the inclusion of DHA (Omega-3) and often prohibit certain synthetic preservatives and pesticides that are still permitted in non-organic North American infant formulas.
How many ounces of Stage 1 formula should my newborn drink daily?
Every baby is different, but generally, newborns (0–2 months) take 2 to 4 ounces every 3 hours. By months 3 to 6, this usually increases to 6 to 8 ounces every 4 to 5 hours. Always follow your baby's hunger cues. Since Stage 1 and PRE formulas are nutritionally dense and designed to mimic the caloric profile of breast milk, your baby will naturally regulate their intake as their stomach capacity grows.
