Hipp Organic First Infant Milk

It all started in October 2012 when our little man 'Peanut' was born. Being our first born we were overjoyed with our little bundle and as any parent, especially new parents, we wanted the best for him. So as we have all been told at anti-natal classes and everywhere else Breast is Best and that is exactly what i did....for 3 weeks.

I like this milk formula. It is easier to carry around as the box has two foil bags in meaning you only have to take half a box with you at a time- unlike the other formulas where you have to take the whole 900g box/tin with you. One problem I did find is that the sticker to seal the bag was pretty much useless once the tiniest bit of powder got stuck to it. i personally rolled the top of the bag over a few times and then put a clean peg or clip over it.
