  Hi TJ we use the similac sensitive with the orange top as supplement to BM. Our babies react very well to it. I'm a fan if the similac brand but honestly I think there are other great options available as well. For us, dd has a weaker belly in terms of GI issues so the sensitive made the most sense for us.

  TTC #1 Since January 2011 Dx: PCOS and Anovulatory April 2012 BFP! Beta 1 5/22 - 1,000+ Beta 2 5/24 - 3,009 1st u/s 6/5 - TWINS!!! A/S Reveals we are Team PURPLE!!!   12/27 - surprise BFP - due August 2014

  I asked our pedi about Enfagrow at LO 9 month appointment and she thought it was just a gimmick but not detrimental at all. Seemed unnecessary to me.

  As for Similac, we tried the sensitive for a while when we trying to figure out her digestive issues early on. I wasn't a big fan because it seemed to have too much froth/bubbles especially for an already gassy baby with issues.

  Enfamil gentlease has worked well for us over the last year but I cannot wait until the switch to WCM and not having to fork over a small fortune for formula.
