Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Stage 2 formula?
Not necessarily. Many pediatricians are comfortable with babies staying on an infant (Stage 1) formula until 12 months. Follow-on formulas are designed to complement a diet that now includes solids.
Can I mix LittleOak Stage 1 and Stage 2?
Prepare each bottle according to its own label. If you are transitioning, you can alternate bottles over a few days rather than mixing powders.
When should my baby move to toddler milk?
Around 12 months, once your toddler is eating a varied diet. See our toddler milk review.
