Baby Feeding: How To Switch Formula Milk
- All approved milk formulas sold in Singapore will provide adequate nutrition for your baby and all infant formulas sold in Singapore must comply with the requirements of the Singapore Food Agency's Sale of Food Act.
- If your child is on a special formula, speak to your healthcare professional before making a switch.
- Sample feeding schedule to switch from current formula to new formula

- This feeding schedule is based on a total of 4 feeds per day.
- Kindly refer to the feeding guide on the can label for number of scoops of milk powder required to prepare the required volume of milk & the number of feeds per day.
- Do not switch formulas when your child is unwell.
- After the switch, monitor if your baby has any changes in milk consumption volume, stool color or pattern, to confirm how well your baby has adapted to the new milk formula. If the baby has diarrhea, allergies, or other issues, do stop taking the new formula and speak with your healthcare professional.
