Any BAD experiences with Good Start Formula?

jenna1008 · November 2008

Do you use the powder or the liquid? Anyone use the "Natural Cultures" type? We're going to change formulas today, and I want to make a good choice. Enfamil Lipil doesn't seem to be working for us... The doctor thinks the baby may be lactose intolerant, but I don't think that's the problem. I also don't want him on a completely soy-based diet. Is Good Start a good choice?

We switched DD from Enfamil to GS also and it has been great! It seems to agree with her belly, she has minimal gas and has regular bowel movements. We use the Supreme powder with DHA/ARA.

I heart GoodStart. My baby was really gassy and we switched to GS. It took about a week to see a difference but I love it now. She's never gassy and has regular BM. She seems much happier. Good luck to you.

Edited to add: I should add that we use the orange can

We used the GS orange can but had to switch after 4 months because she was sooo gassy...poor DD would scream for an hour trying to get the gas and poop out. She loved to eat it though, its just her body does not like all of the iron that is in all of the formulas.

We use GS with cultures and DD loves it. After trying about 6 different kinds for gas, reflux, and colic this has been a godsend. She really does well on it.

DS is on Natural Cultures (the green one) for a little over a month. It has been wonderful! He has reflux and would projectile vomit the Enfamil. He was completemly miserable on the Enfamil.
