How much Holle A2 Stage 2 Organic should you buy? The estimate for how many units of formula you'll need is based on an assumption that baby formula is the primary source of nutrition within your baby's diet, and takes into account Holle A2 Stage 2 Organic packaging and scoop sizes, as well as the Holle's recommended dosage at each age. Unless stated "per month", the calculation is a total for the entire age bracket. On average, a typical baby uses 5 boxes of Holle A2 Stage 2 Organic per month, when fed using Holle's feeding instructions. If you supplement with breast milk or other foods, your calculation may be different. Always follow your pediatricians advice for feeding instructions that are unique to your baby.
