I remember there was a post a while back recommending your formula but I can't find it. My supply issue hasn't gotten any better so I may be looking into some formula to supplement. What's good?
DS was mostly BF with some formula but now he is all FF with a few oz of BM a day. I have been giving him Target brand of Enfamil. Slightly cheaper and Target Cartwheel usually has an offer for 5% off.

I use Similac Organic. If I was just now looking at supplementing, I would use WCM (if no dairy allergies), so I wouldn't have to transition an extra time so close to 1 year. Several May babies that I know of are already on it, from just a few ounces to completely. I will be starting to mix a little in her bottles when she hits 11 months.
We just transistioned to Toddler formula, Enfamil brand. We're doing half Infant and half Toddler and J is doing really well with it. I think the extra protein is helping him sleep for longer stretches at night (knock on wood). We're only getting up once a night now!
@beaubecca How do you get more Similac checks? I've signed up with different email accounts and physical addresses, and I only seem to get one every other month :-(
I get about 1 a month but that's a lot to me because I only buy formula every 2 weeks.
I signed up both my mom and my sister and they both have gotten way more checks than me for some reason.
We mostly BF but do supplement some formula and use Enfamil Infant. LO has always been fine with it. The only other one we ever used was Enfamil Newborn when she was younger. Never tried anything else because we never had reason to.

We use Similac Advanced too - get it at Sams Club for about 30 bucks a pretty big container and they take the simila checks.
