ready to feed Similac for spit ups

On the front it says
Birth to 12 months and then on the side it said "not for infant use"
Wtf  -_- so has any moms used this on their newborn? It is a little thickened so i just want to make sure she can digest it okay :x

Yeah but as long as your baby doesn't have that the formula is intended for infants. That's what they give in hospitals. Just wanted u to know it is safe :))

Mreeah I am a pediatric RN and when I got in to work in the morning I can see all the calls that came through the answering service we have overnight... You'd be shocked at why some people call their pediatrician in the middle of the night! Lol

Mhmm, thanks (: i just was kinda  giggling at the thought of calling them at 8pm to ask about formula. Lol but now its funnier since its 5:30am
I actually have an appt soon and since i only occasionally supplement with formula i doubt ill even get to opening the bottle.

If its the Similac AR for spit up that's fine to use, lots of babies do. However its always best to consult your pediatrician before switching formulas just so they are aware and can document the changes.

I used it with my son and he was completely fine. But if you're worried I know they make formula for newborns as well. I know enfamil does it but I'm not sure about similac.
