I currently bf Soph apart from one bottle of formula at night, however lately she has been drinking more of this and I think its blocking her up..!!
I would love to hear what are the 'best' formulas, she will be one the 6mth one soon and I will probably wean her in the next couple of months. I hear the S somthing one is the most like breast milk, is this right? We use the basic blue lid Heinz Nuture one at the moment. Thanks ladies   ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I use Karicare - just the regular one - have used it from birth and have had no issues. Its one f those things where people will recommend all different ones and you get all confused about which one
More wide used brands are S26, Nuture and Karicare. Good Luck -------------

What is she having at the moment??? S26 is the one you are thinking about. Andrew had that as he was FF from 3 weeks. Josh had Heinz and had no problems with it. I would get a few stick packs (at least 4 of each) and try each one in a row to see how she is with them, or ring up the formula companies and ask for samples. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

We have used S-26 since Jack was 3 weeks old and its great, no issues whatsoever. It's supposed to be the closest to breastmilk but I just got it because it was the cheapest

We used S-26 Gold which is a step above the standard S26 and we found it excellent. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
