Please be aware of the following product recall

Nestlé is recalling specific batches of its SMA infant formula and follow-on formula.

This is due to the potential presence of cereulide in the batches below. There have been no confirmed reports of any illness but if you’ve bought one don’t feed it to your baby.

The recall notice states you can get a refund: If you have purchased one of these batches, please share a photo of the product and the batch code via https://www.nestle.co.uk/en-gb/getintouch or by calling our careline on 0800 0 81 81 80 (UK) 1800 931 832 (Ireland) and we will refund you.

You can switch to any other first stage infant formula (if you’re using a specialised milk please contact your health professional). I’m assuming the recall means the affected batches are now off the shelves but you can double check any new purchases.

Batch codes can be found on the base of the tin or box for powdered formulas or the base of the outer box and on the side / top of the container for ready-to-feed formulas.

A list of UK products and batch numbers followed by Ireland.

On behalf of the care-team at Inverurie Community Maternity Unit, thank you for all of the wonderful baby hats and blankets that have been so generously and kindly knitted for our new arrivals. Our mums are so grateful to receive these beautiful gifts.

A special thank you to friends of Freda Cameron - Jo received a bag of hats this am, and to the very lovely Avril who knitted blankets for us a month ago.

Kindness at its best.
