Whens a good time to buy formula? I don't plan on breast feeding and not sure if I should buy some before the baby comes or after I have her?

I wouldn't buy several cans as you cannot return infant formula if I remember correctly. I would just stock a store card with.the price of a can of.formula every time you would buy one

The hospital I went to with my first and will go to for my this one doesn't provide formula and recommends we take at least one tin with us. Then because my first went through about 1.5 tins a week, I'll have two waiting at home.

I'm only going to get one can of Similac in the blue can cause that's usually what they give in the hospital and I will make sure she can tolerate it and go from there! They will send u home with sample bottles also! But if u buy to much u can always return the unopened ones and get the ones u need!

Buy some before, but make sure you dont buy too much with expiration dates that are close to the time you deliver so be sure to check the dates on the ones you buy
