SMA Follow-on Milk is fortified with higher levels of iron and one pint a day (500-600 ml), given either as a drink or mixed with solids, will provide all of the iron a baby needs, together with a healthy balance of all other essential nutrients. It acts as a nutritional ‘safety net’, which can be especially reassuring for mums when a baby goes through fussy and difficult eating stages. SMA Follow-on Milk also has added Omega 3 & 6 to help support a baby’s brain and eye development.

Milk will remain an important part of a baby’s daily diet all the way through childhood, providing important energy and nutrients. SMA Follow-on Milk has been specially developed to provide babies over six months with the important nutrients and energy they need as part of a balanced weaning diet. From 6 months up 1 year, a baby will need a minimum of 500-600 ml (about a pint) a day to help them get everything they need for healthy growth and development as they get to grips with eating a healthy weaning diet. Over one year, a minimum of 350 ml of milk should be given alongside dairy products. SMA Toddler Milk has been nutritionally balanced for active toddlers from one year of age.

SMA Follow-on Milk is suitable from 6 months and has no more calories than SMA’s First Infant Milk. It is whey based like SMA First Infant Milk, but has a higher level of vitamins, minerals, iron and added Omega 3 & 6 - so less milk is needed to help ensure they get everything they require and to complement their weaning diet.
