I think it's one of those things where you have to just try different ones.  I have a can of similac and enfamil... I'm hoping my daughter likes one of those!

Im having my daughter monday... and I just wish I could have had some already for when we got released from the hospital. I decided not to do WIC, I know I could have but I really would rather do without and pay what I have to. I bought a baby bullet that purees food into baby food. So hopefully I can introduce those types of foods when shes old enough.  I just really wish I knew what types of milk she'd like instead of guessing...

My nephew had to go through a few diff brands. My daughter started on similac and I compared nutrition facts and found a cheaper brand that was just as healthy. I tried pumping breast milk but never produced enough. And going back to work at 8 wks makes it tough too! I have a healthy 2 year old that was 90% formula fed.

I used enfamil with both my children. I tried similac but they didn't take to it. Try different ones to see what your baby likes.

Kirstenthecat, pretty sure she asked about what brand of formula she should buy. Not your opinion on whether she should breast feed or formula feed. Im just saying. Good question brittyboo1125, I also wonder?

Just have to buy one and see how your baby reacts to it. My daughter was never picky we did similac.
