Need some advice & opinions of mommies, in the hospital I was supplementing with formula and started my baby on Similac he's done great on it other than the normal gas I have no complaints. However WIC is providing me with Enfamil. I'm not sure wether to switch him over and see if he adjusts as well as he's done with Similac or just not even take any risk.

I honestly stopped for a little while because he wasn't getting full at all so it was getting extremely frustrating and I was really hard on myself putting pressure that I had to make him full even though I wasn't making enough milk but I'm going to start again after I transition his formula and see how it goes @valrocks

We used similac regular in the hospital and then when we got home I switched to similac for gas since I had it from those sampler kits they send you. I don't remember how or why we switched to enfamil. I think the pediatrician recommend it. We don't use it too often, it's more for back up at this point.

@valrocks, I was reading a lot of benefits Enfamil has I just don't know how he's going to handle a transition or if I'm just over reacting lol and I was looking at the gentlease also! Because there are just so many different ones to chose from

We use the enfamil gentlease. I get it thru WIC. He still has gas but I've heard that enfamil uses smaller protein molecules that are easier to digest.

Random facts!

Did you know that Similac is short for "similar to lactation"?
