Hi, I haven't written on here in a while. I had my second child 7 weeks ago and have only breast fed him. I am going back to work in two weeks and will be needing to have a back up of formula just in case. I want him to try it a few times before he goes to make sure there is no reaction. With our first baby we did enfamil premium but there has been information in the news about bacteria in the powder formula.
Which formula are you using with your babies?
Re: What formula are you feeding baby?
We had great luck with Parent's Choice (walmart) "Gentle" powder formula with our first two kiddos. With our third (he's 5 days old) we started him on Enfamil at the hospital and just tried to switch him over to Parent's Choice last night and it did NOT go well so we are continuing with the Enfamil.

Thanks for your help ladies! Congrats to everyone on their new babies!
We use targets up &up the one compared to Similac advance
We went from Enfamil Premium to Up & Up (Target) in the container with the blue lettering. Before that we had used BJs brand but they stopped making the "like Enfamil" version.
FYI: Parent's Choice, Kirkland, Target, CVS, Bright Beginnings, maybe more are all the exact same formula. They are all produced by PBM nutritionals. If you check the back of the container, it will say PBM.
It amazed me how the prices were so different in different stores. I got 36 oz of the gentle version for $16.50 from Target (on sale, with a coupon) and Wal-mart had it for 23.2 oz for $14.88 so I would definitely shop around for prices/sales at each place.
