I have used this milk with both of my children even though I had to change my son onto the anti colic and constipation aptamil milk I knew with my daughter she had to have this! Easy to prepare and love the bar at the side to even out the milk in the measuring spoon.

Item is the only one my kids could use nice soft texture and doesn’t have a funky smell to it like most others.
Easy to prepare.
Only downfall is the steep price you pay for the name. - Strengths:

I couldn’t breastfeed any longer and due to working in a nursery before having my little boy I knew this product quite well so chose to use it for my son. He loved it and was easy to prepare even for my other half
The only downside is the cost and that you can never get any discounts on it. - Strengths:

I wanted to breastfeed but unfortunately my daughter didn’t and going into the world of milk Is scary . We went for this as it seemed the best milk for her she’s had it since a newborn and still loves it now she’s one . Packaging is also helpful with the advice / nutritional information. - Strengths:

I have only ever used aptamil for my one baby and I highly recommend it. I feel it is the best brand out there and after looking at lots of reviews when I started to think about ending breastfeeding, I wanted only the best. We had no problems moving from breast to bottle using Aptamil. I would recommend to anybody without hesitation. - Strengths:

I love to buy this is not that expensive, and my baby loves it, it’s the best brand for newborns and grown up babies, I would highly recommend this product, I have been using it since my baby boy was born and I’m very happy, my baby is healthy and strong I will carry on giving him the milk powder and following up with number 2 once my baby boy is old enough, I wouldn’t use any other product to feed my baby, I buy this product one a week and is not expensive.

My babies have all been really good on this milk, I wanted to breastfeed but it never worked out for us and I guess this is the next best option. Shame they can't do offers on it. - Strengths:

This was the infant milk hospital staff gave to our newborn and we were recommended to use the same company when go back home. But after reading label I realised this milk powder contains things like palm oil which as far as I know are not so good consume for adults so even more for the babies. - Strengths:

Sometimes when trying to measure out powder, the scoop catches on something in the box and flicks the powder out, especially when trying to measure quickly! Otherwise, it’s all good! - Strengths:

My daughter was prem, tongue and lip tied and had a lot is feeding issues as a new born.
This was the first milk she willingly drank (via a syringe in hospital the first few days, and then when she took a teat we stuck with it as it seemed to suit her well, no bringing back the feeds or anything.
The powder mixes with the water really well and doesn’t remain grainy, it doesn’t clog the teats, and doesn’t smell vile.
The lid is good and secure, and the scoop clips into the lid nicely.
I’ve kept my daughter on this until 13 months when advised by dietician (egg allergy) to change to a milk with more protein in.
It’s been great for us. - Strengths:

My son has been breastfeeding for 3 months now so thought id introduce bottles this was my first option as there was so many good reviews he drank the whole bottle about an hour later he couldn't stop sicking up the milk as i thought it was just wind i gave it him again it happened again he literally sicked up the whole bottle just don't think it agreed with him. - Strengths:

I really wanted to breast feed our baby, I tried everything and even had several midwives try to help me with her latch but she never did. After expressing for 2 months, we decided to move on as I was finding it very difficult. We decided to use Aptamil after doing lots of research as it was the closest to breast milk. We have been using it ever since and started using the weaning products too. Our daughter loves it and hasn't had any problems. I would recommend it to all mothers but especially to those who breast fed and need to move on. - Strengths:

I love aptamil formulas, they are great for new borns (not difficult to digest) and great for follow up. My first baby had aptamil formula since 2 weeks old, and now my second baby is using since 1 month. They are nicely feed, keeping/getting more weight. Recommend. -

Both my boys love this milk and so do I it comes with a measuring spoon so you can get the right amount of powder you need but i think you should be getting more powder for your money as the price of the milk has gone up but the powder hasn’t. - Strengths:

I wanted to try a different brand of milk with my 3rd baby and i must say my baby got on well with aptimal. The only off thing is the smell of the milk when its ready, other than that, i would recommend to others. - Strengths:

I have used this milk since I stopped breast feeding my daughter at 6 weeks. We weaned her onto it gradually in the two weeks building up to this. The first thing I noticed was how frothy the milk was once mixed but my daughter took to it straight away. I have had issues with wind with my daughter and have recently tried to not shake the milk so aggressively to try and avoid this issue. It has made a slight difference but I have since been recommended other products to try instead of aptamil. We chose this particular formula due to being reluctant to stop breast feeding but having to and the box stating it was the closest formula to breast milk. It was also the more expensive formula in our local supermarket. Overall I would recommend but with reflux and wind in our daughter I perhaps should have used a different formula to help her more with digesting it. - Strengths:

No complaints. My daughter thrived on this. Easy to prepare. Was quite sticky if you spilt the powder. Mixed in easily with the water. Would recommend and use again if necessary. - Strengths:

I was recommended aptamil with my first baby. The changeover from breast feeding to formula went smoothly when using this formula. I now am using it for my second baby who feeds with it just as well as my first. -
