Powdered vs read to eat formula

My LO has reflux and I have heard that the ready to eat formula may help reduce the reflux.  Can you tell a difference when your LO is on powdered vs. ready to eat???  Just curious ... thanks!

Re: Powdered vs read to eat formula

  • I found it help to use the ready to use because with the powder there were alot more bubbles from having to shake it.  But once her reflex was a little better I went to the powered and milk bank bottles since the ready cost alot more then the powder :+)

     

  • Angelina hates ready to use formula...she will not eat it to save her life. When I make the powder formula, instead of shaking it I swirl it. Much less bubbles that way.

  • We bought a Dr. Brown's formula mixing pitcher (available from BRU, amazon, ebay) and it helped with the bubbles a LOT!

    Also, I noticed Nutramagen has like no bubbles. The regular formula is so incredible foamy but Nutramagen has no foam at all.
