heard tt enfalac and similac quite good...
i'm using friso also.. so far no pro.. my cousin keep ask me to change to similac cos her son had constipation when he took friso but the others suggest that since my dear son is okay to friso then just stick to it.. i think all formula is more or less the same, i mean, the impt nutrients is confirm inside alrdy. what's more impt is whether your baby suit the formula anot... :001_302:

Ya, was telling myself all formula should be more or less the same. But seems like only Mamex have "Immunifortis" for the gut.

I agree with LoVeS. All FM are about the same, so it really depends whether your baby's digestion "agrees" with a particular brand of FM (i.e. whether he/she can poop easily).

My baby is taking NAN HA1. So far, so good. She poops about 3 times a day on average.

So mummies, do i switch formula now since my bb is constipated with NAN? Or, reduce the powder proportion?

Don't change powder proportions!!! Always follow the instructions on the tin!!!

If your baby is constipated, switch formula but don't change powder proportions!!!! You will be depriving your baby of adequate fluids and nutrition.

how old is your kid and how many days havent poo? Did you feed your kid water?
LOves, he poo everyday, but hard stools. Very heartpain to see him trying to get the poo out.

We changed from NAN to similac yesterday. Stools still hard. How long will we take to see if Similac is suitable for him?:wong19:

but if my baby can only finish 120ml of milk
and he's supposed to take 150ml of milk @ two months old,
then how?

continue making 150ml and then waste the 30ml?

I'm bf-ing my DD on n off, and give her Similac since Day 1. Now she just turned 2mths old, still on Similac. So far ok, been pooping at least once a day, if not sometimes twice. Stools- ideally soft and light brown. v.pleasing to the mummies' eyes. *lol* I feed her with water too, cos FM fed babies need to drink plain water cos heaty. 10-30ml daily.

Why do you supplement with goat's milk once a week? Any special benefits?
