SMA Pro 6+months Follow-on Milk trial with TheInsidersIreland

Whilst most of my blog posts are on ways to make an extra income without the extra effort, I’ve recently been taking part in a few product trials at home which I have thoroughly enjoyed. One of which is my first product trial with a fantastic company called TheInsiders, a word of mouth review platform.

I have four children, I have breastfed them all but normally make a switch to formula when they are older (mainly as I find I no longer have the time to express any longer). My youngest has been exclusively breastfed from birth,  and now at ten months still she refuses bottles and pacifiers, so when the opportunity came up to review SMA Pro 6+Months follow on milk  with TheInsiders, I immediately applied and was accepted. The trial takes place over a 6 week period so you can get a really good feel for the product and have plenty of time to talk to others about your experience of SMA Pro Follow-on Milk.


Not long after being notified that I’d been accepted for the campaign, I received a box full of goodies in the post to both trial with my daughter Caitlin and give out to other parents in return for some honest feedback. This included both vouchers and ready to feed formula boxes.  The pack included:

1 x 800g tin of SMA Pro Follow-on milk
1 x 1L carton of SMA Pro Follow-on milk
1 x SMA Baby Club Towel
To share with other parents it also included:

4 x 200ml cartons of SMA Pro Follow-on Milk
15 x Baby Food Diaries (with £2 money off vouchers for 1 x 800g tin of SMA Pro Follow-on Milk)


We got involved straight away, photographing our unboxing (with the help of my beautiful sidekick) and later that afternoon I gave Caitlin some of the pre-made ready to feed formula from the large carton we had received. She is still very fussy about what she likes to drink from, and I’ve tried numerous cups, sippy cups, bottles and various teats (recommendations welcome!). I tried the formula cold first in a sippy cup which she rejected straight away but when warmed a little she explored, taking a few small mouthfuls here and there. It will be a learning process for her but I feel that this was very successful for a first try!



What interested me most about the formula was the fortified nutrients such as iron, vitamin D, calcium and Omega 3 & 6. The leaflet included states that a ‘500ml of SMA Pro Follow-on Milk provides 100% of babies vitamin D requirements.’ The SMA nutrition powder formulas use recyclable steel tins, the powder has an easy to open lid with a scoop which can be stored under the lid. The ready to feed liquid options come with a resealable lid making them really easy to use when you are out and about and on the go. There is also an Organic powder option for those interested in trying out SMA Pro organic,plus SMA PRO also contains GOS/FOS and is suitable for halal. The campaign provides full support bia The Sma Careline team which has both a telephone and live chat service, listed in the booklet in the pack we received.

We attend several Parent and Toddler groups on a weekly basis where I have been handing out trial ready to feed cartons and coupons, and all in all I’ve been getting some good feedback.

We are looking forward to continuing our SMA Pro formula trial though at present I am not considering stopping breastfeeding, it would however be nice to have this option for when I am out of home longer than expected and my partner is looking after Caitlin.

Lynsey.

My experience of Laser Eye Surgery - Optimax Belfast review.

I have been very pleased at how my post on our experience of plagiocephaly and helmet treatment has been received, and hope that it will help some parents to have an honest mother’s opinion of the treatment and help them to make the decision on whether to go down that route for their child. In thinking along this theme and jotting down ideas for blog posts, I thought I would write my experience on something that after many years of thinking about I finally was brave enough to take the plunge this year. It also helps that at this stage in my pregnancy I can now only sleep for around 4 hours a night (hello insomnia) and at least I have the peace to write a review in the early hours of the morning before little mister wakes up. In April 2014 I had laser eye surgery, and I really have to admit, it is one of the best things I have ever done in my life and I am so pleased with the results. Since the age of seven I needed to wear glasses – I had terrible eyesight. I remember at the time ...
