I knew formula was pricy but I was so NOT expecting $30!

Formula feeding mommas, what are you suggestions and opinions on brand(s)?

It’s so expensive! We don’t qualify for WIC unfortunately. We’ve used Gerber Good Start Gentle with both kiddos.

Aldi has formula and sams also does as well they’re at good prices. My son used to be on formula. You can also get on WIC or if you already have it just make an appointment for your little one and let them know that you need formula. When you make the appointment tell them you don’t have formula to see if they can give you an appointment more faster.

That’s okay, they’d definitely give you some if you ask when you go to pick up the checks. I did that a few times before.

You’re welcome mama. I hope they give you a few cans so you don’t have to spend so much.

You could convince WIC or your pediatrician to write a prescription for the more expensive stuff. I had that done with my first. He didn’t need the alimentum formula but it was “prescribed” to him so everything was covered through insurance.

Hey girlies! I plan on breast feeding my LO as much as I can. I also plan to formula feed when needed. Have any of you moms tried organic formulas? How was it? Experience?

jbeans24.45 @salt., thanks, I’m just asking for a back up plan if I don’t get to breastfeed exclusively

What formula is closest to breastmilk ? I don’t plan on breastfeeding this time so I’m wanting to find formula that is closest to breastmilk 💙

Because I have to be on mental health medication after birth I am unable to breastfeed😔 what are some good formulas for babies? I know breast is best but I can’t be on the medication I need and breast feed.
