Infamil or Similac? My mother in law bought infamil and my baby is on similac I just didn't know what formula more moms prefer.
My son started off on newborn enfamil and was great on it, tried similac since I had it around and he hated it! He only had similac for 2 days, enfamil is what we use. We have been on enfamil gentlease since he was 3 weeks
Depends on what your baby likes. Enfamil made my baby extremely gassy and fussy. Similac sensitive is what I've been using since.
I would talk to your pediatrician about formulas, although I've notice most will recommend Similac as its owned by big pharma and leave samples. I've used both and Similac goes right through her. When I would supplement with Similac she would be pooping it out within the hour and it would very VERY watery. We switched over to Enfamil and it sticks to her where she has gained a significant amount of weight.
my son is on enfamil ar. its for spitting up and really helps!!
@camdensmamma I agree if you find something that fits stick to it. That's what my ped said especially when babies are young so their digestive system isn't overloaded with different kinds of formula
I say it would be ok if they are similar such as; enfamil gentlease and similac sensitive, or both infant etc
@karnamarie, okay thank you! I'm kind of nervous to try it incase it doesn't agree with him or something
@camdensmamma I have noticed that similac seems thicker so that maybe why they want your baby to take that for spitting up since it's heavier. You can try the gentlease and see if it works for your LO.
@sarahdrew, @karnamarie he has an issue with spitting up so they have him on similac soy but she bought him enfamil gentlease and newborn so I am kinda confused if I should try them to see if it agrees with him better or not.. I'm a first time mom so I get confused easily
@camdensmamma, she had the worst gas and rashes bad!! Her whole body was rashed up. She also spit most of it out.
Out of those two I prefer Enfamil. But my baby is on Gerber soy
Enfamil constipated my LO's we used Similac with both
I prefers similac because my daughter had a reaction to enfimil.
I used enfamil because that's what wic around here gives..... I also used similac before I could get it thru wic.... my son didn't have an issue with either
I've personally never given formular but your post makes me curious tho..
Random facts!
Did you know that Similac is short for "similar to lactation"?
How bad would it be if I put my babies on different formula tomorrow? It's the same brand but different kind, so instead of Similac Sensitive it's Similac Pro Advance. My husband went to 4 different stores tonight and they were all out of the one we use. My twins are 11 months
Breastfeeding to formula
What formula would you ladies recommend ? I'm thinking the Similac supplementing formula but not sure. My daughter had the Similac Advance as a newborn in the hospital but that was it. Just curious as to what to do....
is it just my fiance and me or does Similac smell to anyone else??
Similac Gold или Similac Classic? Что лучше?
Similac upset my sons stomach. He had really watery poop. So much that everytime he passed gas it was a poopy diaper. He's on enfamil gentalease now and it's working great
