Pregnancy Info HOME

I was actually coming to post almost this exact question. My baby isn't here yet ... but I am planning to b___st feed AND formula feed ... and I wanted to know what everyone thought the best formula was.

I bf'd my son for 6 months. After that he needed more than I could give, so I started him on GOOD START formula. I chose it (silly but true) because I liked the commercials. But the pediatrician said its the best kind (closest to mothers milk) and it is also on the cheaper side (bonus for me!) I have heard some horror stories from other mothers - having to swtich between this one and that one because of gas or what have you. Good luck to you though!!!!

I have been through multiple formulas with my little one and he had major gas problems. I finally found one that worked for him-Enfamil Gentlease. It is in a purple can and the doctor gave me a sample. It works wonders-he is not pulling up his legs, crying and fussing anymore. I love it! He was also jaundiced and was hospitalized after release.

I have been using Similac Advance, i noticed when i was using the Avent bottles he was getting a lot of gas so i tried a different bottle, Dr. Browns, it works great. so i didnt change formulas, but the bottles sure made a difference...
