Formula suggestions for EBF baby?

Question

My supply is dropping as I started working. She is five months old.  What formula seems to be the easiest to transition to from breast milk?  Thanks in advance!

Answer

I use the Enfamil gentlease and reguline.....I found the gentlease constipated her so the reguline helps with that. I just do half & half.

Answer

If you want to increase your supply let me tell you, I have done it ALL and nothing gave me a significant change but MilkFlow fenugreek with blessed thistlecapsules, Mommy Knows Best goat's rue, and marshmallow root. I went from barely pumping an ounce between both breasts to about 3-4 ounces combined and that's with pumping abou 2x a day!

Because I had supply issues I would occasionally supplement with formula and I'm very picky about what kind my baby would drink. I hated that coppery smell and taste that formula gas from all the iron. The best one I found was Similac Total Comfort in the lavender can.

Answer

Similac makes a formula for supplementation, it has a green lid. It was the only thing my son would drink.

Answer

Maybe try to see an LC and see if you can get your supply back up so you don't have to supplement long.

Answer

Nutramigen

Answer

My baby will only drink the gerber goodstart gentle.

Answer

Similac just came out with Pure Bliss. I supplemented with Similac sensitive until that came out.

Answer

Gerber soothe works great (:

Answer

I have a low supply so my baby has gotten a combination of breast milk and formula formula since day 4. I recommend reading about formula ingredient of "baby formula expert.com". We started with the similar sensitive but are now successfully using gerber goodstart gentle. It has more whey and lactose and less sugar and hard to digest Casin. It might take some trial and error of what your baby will drink plus doesn't constipate them.

Answer

Enfamil gentlease or Similac Sensitive
