HiPP German Stage 3 Bio Combiotik is an EU Organic certified (DE-ÖKO-001) follow-on formula for babies from the 10th month. It is made in Germany with organic skimmed milk. Every box carries HiPP's Combiotik blend of natural probiotics and prebiotics, DHA for brain and eye development, and Metafolin, the bioactive form of folate. Of the whole German range, Stage 3 contains the mildest organic starch, so each bottle is creamy and properly filling. This nutrient-rich, clean formula can be used as a complete substitute for breast milk or as a supplement alongside breast milk. You can also use HiPP German Organic Stage 3 toddler formula as your baby weans off breast milk or transitions away from another baby formula. US parents rate it 4.9 stars, and it has become one of the European organic follow-on formulas they reorder most.
 

By ten months, your baby is a different person at the table. Meals are real meals now. The bottle has become the calm, dependable part of the day. Stage 3 was built for exactly that shift. Lactose is still the main carbohydrate, just as it is in breast milk. HiPP then adds a little more mild organic starch than in HiPP German Stage 2. The bottle feels creamier, and it carries your baby comfortably through to the next meal. There is no maltodextrin and no refined sugar added.

The Combiotik blend pairs a natural probiotic culture with prebiotics from organic lactose, for a comfortable little tummy. That probiotic, Limosilactobacillus fermentum, was originally derived from breast milk. Taste matters more at this age, and parents tell us the mild, naturally milky flavor goes down without a fight. Long-chain polyunsaturated Omega-3 & 6 fatty acids are added to support brain and neural cell development. The organic milk comes from farms committed to high animal welfare standards. Production runs climate neutrally in Germany, under the highest European formula regulations set by the EFSA, which are much stricter than organic standards in the United States.

One tip from experienced parents: at this age, bottles get dropped as solid meals take over. A box lasts longer than it used to, but it is still worth reordering before the current one runs low.

Preparation for all powdered formulas:

1. Wash your hands and sterilize the bottle, teat, and ring. Clean them thoroughly.
2. Boil fresh drinking water and let it cool. Do not prepare the formula with boiling or very hot water, as this may damage the natural lactic acid cultures.
3. Pour the correct amount of cooled boiled water into the sterilized bottle (see feeding chart).
4. Measure the recommended amount of powder. Fill the scoop loosely and level off. Add the powder to the water. Scoop size: 4.5g. Use 1 scoop per 30ml water.
5. Close the bottle and shake vigorously until the powder is fully dissolved.
6. Cool to drinking temperature, approximately 37°C (98°F). Test on the inside of your wrist before feeding. Always prepare fresh for each feed and discard any leftovers. Close the inner bag tightly after each use. Use only the measuring scoop supplied in the box.
