XP: What is the best formula for a gassy baby?

We've tried Similac Advanced, Sensitive, and currently use Soy.  DS is still so gassy!  He is also breastfed and I have eliminated most dairy from my diet.  We use gas drops several times a day as well.  What type of formula have you found works best for gassy babies?

    Our pedi gave us a sample of Enfamil's Gentlease when we told him about DS's gassiness. We started using gas drops the same time we started this formula but one or both has really helped DS's tummy (it used to get so distended from the all the gas).

  • We use Gerber Good Start Protect, and I think Luke was more gassy on breast milk than he is on this formula.

  • Good luck! If you find out, let me know. We've tried Enfamil, Gentlease, Soy, AR, and now we're on Similac Sensitive. He still has tons of gas.

    I refuse to pay for the Nutramigen or Alimentum.

    He's starting to out grow it, I think.

  • We've used both Parent's Choice Gentle and Member's Mark Gentle, both work well for DD's gas.  I used gas drops for a while, but haven't needed them in a couple of weeks.

    I also found my baby to be way more gassy when EBF.  Now we use a combo and the formula is GentleEase by Enfamil.  He was a new baby after introducing the GentleEase.
