GERBER nourish Discontinued! What to do?

My preemie is a super finicky eater.  She drinks expressed breast milk that is fortified with gerber nourish (24kcal).  She did not do well with Similac Neosure when she first came home from the hospital.
I can't find her formula ANYWHERE.  Found it on Amazon but for nearly twice the price.  I called Gerber and they said it is discontinued.

What is your preemie on?  Got any suggestions for me?

  • How old is your premie? (I am mobile). Maybe you can discontinue the fortifier? I was able to at 2 months adjusted and just give breast milk.
  • I use gerber gentle for him. I just add his vitamins to it as well so he's getting the proper nutrients.
  • She is 8 months old, but only weighs 11.5 lbs.  the pediatrician said we can switch to any formula as long as she gets 24kcal.  So the formula mix is different. 

    I was able to find 2 cans on clearance at babies are us and also ordered 6 cans from an ebay seller. That will hold us over for a little while...

    After that, I guess I'll switch her to a different formula.

    Thanks everybody.
