Hazards and Cautions
Breastfeeding is best for babies. It is recommended that Aptamilk First milk be used only on the advice of a doctor, midwife, health visitor, public health nurse, dietitian, pharmacist, or other professional responsible for maternal and child care. When bottle feeding do not allow prolonged or frequent contact of milk feeds with your baby's teeth as this increases the risk of tooth decay. Ask your health professional or dentist for advice. Make sure your baby's teeth are cleaned after the last feed at night. Please always seek professional advice and talk to your healthcare professional before using. Never leave your baby alone during feeding.
