Goats milk formula

Just wondering if anyone knows.. We have our 7month old on karicare goats milk formula, he has reflux and a sensitive tummy so our doctor recommended it and it has made him a much more settled baby. Anyway at our health nurse appointment the other day she said that goats milk formula doesn't have as much iron in it as regular formula and I should be giving him a supplement such as pentevite and then a friend of mine was telling me it lacks other vitamins as well. Does anyone know if this is true?? I have a doctor appointment next week but I'm concerned we aren't giving him enough of what he needs now.

Goats milk actually contains more vitamins than a cows milk formula. The only thing it's lacking is folic acid and Vitamin B12, but the formula will have these things fortified in the powder.

I used goats formula (with thickener for reflux) on my doctors recommendation with no issues at all. He didn't say we needed to use a multivitamin. My MCHN never advised it either.

Has anyone done anything other than almond milk or regular milk? I don't want to give either!

When can I start giving my son regular milk? He turns 10 months in 2 days. I bought unsweetened almond milk yesterday so he can try. Would that be okay? I’m lowkey tired of him on formula but I mean he’s still a baby lol.

amysbabies 12 months. Focus on purees, you can steam veggies and mash them yourself. Or mash up some
