Mum investigates

Bottle feeding?
Monique wants to know the ins and outs!

We would like to introduce you to our "ambassador". Her name is Monique, and she really is the investigative type. She is someone who wants to get to the bottom of things. A trait that surfaced in all its intensity when she was pregnant.

Sometimes, unfortunately, mother nature doesn't cooperate

She heard from friends that breastfeeding doesn't always work out. As an expectant mother, Monique liked to be well-prepared. And so Monique began looking for information on bottle feeding. Organic formula, to be precise.

That's how she came across the Pure Goat Company site. She learned about a bottle formula based on Dutch goat's milk. Without tuna fish oil. Without palm oil. And with only organic lactose. So, without adding other sugars, such as maltodextrin or glucose. All things that Monique, as a consumer and mother, considers essential.

She did not hide her enthusiasm!

And so, Monique ordered a tin. She has absolutely no regrets about that purchase. In fact, she was so passionate – it made her husband laugh. He jokingly remarked that she should become an ambassador for this brand.

Monique didn't think that was such a crazy idea. She sent us an e-mail. Her enthusiasm, combined with her critical nature, appealed to us. After all, we are always looking to improve ourselves; Pure Goat Company is an innovative company.

That is why we asked Monique to write a monthly blog about her experiences. Informative for (expectant) mothers looking for tips on bottle feeding. And, on many occasions, relatable too!

FAQ'S

No, in most cases, goat milk is not suitable for babies with a diagnosed cow milk protein allergy. This is because the primary allergen in cow milk, the casein protein, is about 90 percent identical to the protein found in goat milk. Consequently, your child may experience similar allergic reactions. If you suspect an allergy or have doubts about making the switch, always consult your midwife or pediatrician first.

Many parents consciously make the switch to goat milk because they are looking for a natural and pure alternative to traditional cow milk formula. Goat milk naturally has a mild and creamy taste that babies find very appealing. Pure Goat Company uses organic whole goat milk, complemented with organic lactose, plant-based oils, GOS fibers, and essential vitamins and minerals. While breastfeeding is always the first and best choice, organic goat milk formula provides a safe and high-quality alternative.

Switching from cow milk to goat milk is usually very smooth due to its mild flavor. However, it is best to introduce the new formula gradually. Start by mixing a small amount of goat milk formula into the current formula and slowly increase the proportion over time. Monitor your baby’s reaction and digestion closely during the transition. For personal guidance, you can always contact your midwife or our customer service team.
