Best formula for gassy babies?

Question

I’m a ftm and just not switching from breastmilk to formula. I don’t know much about formula at all, but my LO is very gassy. He is a month old. Is there a formula you recommend for gassy babies? If not, is there a formula you recommend in general? Thanks!

Answer

Similac Total Comfort worked best for my twins that were preemies. They had the worst gas and reflux ever. Gas drops and gripe water never worked either. We put them on total comfort since the protein in it is broken down in it already to help relieve so much work for their tiny tummies. We also burped them every 1-2 oz during feedings. We used the C method for burping them rather than pats in the back. They almost always burped with that method. It was much more effective than patting the back and bouncing. All babies are different but that’s what worked for us. That will be a year old next week and we are now transitioning them to whole milk.
