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.
How's your breastfeeding journey going?? If you have any questions I'm pretty knowledgeable on a lot of things
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"?
so my mom was telling me I should give my son baby cereal at night because at night is when he wants to eat the most. I haven't done it yet but who thinks its okay I was thinking doing it when he's two months!??
Biggest Baby on BB
I know I don't have the biggest baby here but I know he's right up there.
My kitten is sleeping in my baby girls crib. This is the first time he's done it i think he's gonna be sleeping with her at night
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
