Which milk formula for newborn?

[banane76]

We use Hipp because it's organic, has 2 separate packs in a box so you don't have to worry about it going bag before you finish the box. It's also cheaper than most commercial brands and Bellamy's seems quite pricey compared to it. The new Hipp formula also has DHA and prebiotics.

I think you just have to tried a few at the beginning. I tried like 4 or 5 before finding a right one. Finally we settled with Enfamil.

Also, i think Enfamil offers a little more selection for special needed baby, like if your baby has more gas. You can try their Gentlease or ProSobee. If the baby has reflux, may be A.R. is good option.

Hi, can you let me know if these Enfamil your sister used were manufactured in Holland? or USA?

she just got it off the rack at wellcome / park n' shop...not at Bumps to Babes or those baby stores....

We use Similac and everything seems to be working fine.

Another important thing that you need to consider is the availability in your home country in case you are going back for a long period of time.

3Tower makes a good point about considering whether it is available in your home country. We chose to use HIPP which was great but when we went home to Canada I had to carry it all with me because I couldn't find a place to buy it there. Makes for very heavy baggage and the worry that you will run out and your baby won't like anything else if you do run out.

Our peed recommended friso for our newborn as she ws nor getting enough from me. Si far so good. Will continue to bf but may need to substitute night feed as she is still not getting enough from me.

Futurehkmom, I suspect that my supply is low bc baby feeds for 25 to 30 mins but is still. Hungry 15 mins later. Thanks
