HiPP ready to feed

Formula HiPP has already mixed and sealed in a bottle. You pour out what the baby drinks, warmed if the label asks, and throw the rest away; there is no scoop, no water and no measuring.

Four in 200 ml bottles: PRE and Stage 1 from birth, Stage 2 after six months, and HA PRE from birth for babies with a family history of allergy. HiPP also makes the PRE and the HA PRE in 90 ml bottles, sold by the tray of 24 rather than singly, which is why the article number on those two is the tray's and not one bottle's.

Close, but not identical. On the PRE and the HA PRE most values match, though the 2026 bottles add taurine and more magnesium. The liquid Stage 1 and Stage 2 have no starch, where the powders do, and carry more lactose instead, and none of the liquids has the lactic culture the powders carry.

HiPP uses the Combiotik name across the range. On these bottles the ingredient list has galacto-oligosaccharides and no culture, so on a liquid the name stands for the prebiotic alone. We checked all six ingredient lists.

The pack says to keep an opened, unwarmed bottle closed in the fridge at no more than 6 °C and use it within 24 hours. Warmed milk and anything left in the feeding bottle go down the sink.

That depends on the bottle. The PRE bottles' 2026 print allows a room-temperature feed, or warming in a water bath to about 37 °C. The Stage 1, Stage 2 and HA PRE labels say to warm it to about 40 °C and let it cool before you check it. None may go in a microwave.

It is sterile in the sealed bottle, where powder is not sterile and has to be made up with water hot enough to kill what may be in it. That is why the CDC names ready-to-feed formula for emergencies when water cannot be made safe, and why hospitals use the small bottles. Once you open it, the usual bottle hygiene applies.

Yes, several times more for the same milk, which is what the NHS says about ready-to-feed generally. The sellers table on each product page gives the price for one bottle.

The German bottles are exported: two sellers this site tracks ship all four to the United States and Canada, by the case. Britain has its own range of four, sold by HiPP UK, and no seller we track ships those across the Atlantic.

One of them, now. The British Follow On Milk matches the German Stage 2 on every value both print. HiPP UK's First Infant Milk matched the German PRE bottle until HiPP changed the German recipe in 2026, adding taurine and more magnesium, and the British bottle kept the earlier recipe. Britain also charts a baby to twelve months.

No. The HA PRE bottle carries no organic logo, as its powder does not, because the hydrolysed whey protein it is built on is not made from organic milk. The PRE, Stage 1 and Stage 2 bottles are organic.
