Formula

Hi ladies. LO will be 5 weeks on Monday. My milk supply has been low from day 1 because Of the fertility meds we used to get pregnant. I've been formula feeding with whatever breast milk I'm getting from pumping ( less than 2oz a day)
LO was on enfamil gentlease but her gas was still terrible. We switched her to similac sensitive tonight ( after talking to her ped)

Has anyone else had this problem? Or used Gentlease vs similac sensitive?

TIA!

Re: Formula

  • The Similac didn't work for my guy very well- he's an Enfamil fan.
    But, Dr. Brown's bottles have been a saving grace. You may want to look into them along with the Similac.

    Good luck!

  • My LO had horrible gas on Enfamil! We switched to Gerber Gentle and have been so amazed at the difference. We use Tommee Tippee bottles they are great!
  • I switched from similac advanced to sensitive earlier this week and it seems to be going well! She seems like her tummy hurts less, as she's not scrunching up as much.

    All babies are different though. I wish you luck :-)

  • Thanks ladies! I gave her the first feeding of similac at 930pm and she just woke up its 630am!?! Whoaaaaa lol I had been using Dr. Browns but I bought an Avent natural bottle, she liked it a ton more. So we will see how it goes :) she's on the second feeding now. Fingers crossed!
