Best formula option

Hey everyone. Was wondering what y’all’s favorite formula is and why?
I’m looking to switch my baby to something that seems more healthier and that won’t cause any GI issues, nor make him sensitive to adult cow milk when he’s older and drink that.

I use Similac Advanced right now and it just seems like it’s litterally so sticky and full of sugar …

Did use SMA, but had to move cow and gate because of cost. LO good with both x

We use Hipp and are happy with it. Doesn't have corn syrup or anything like that.

We use Kendamil because it has all clean ingredients. No palm oils, corn syrup, mono and diglycerides, or any of the other junk ingredients some have. Bobbie is supposed to be good as well. We chose Kendamil only because it was available in more places (Target and Walmart)than Bobbie (just Target).

Earths best sensitive

None baby are way more healthy with breast milk

not everyone is able to exclusively or partially breastfeed, therefore formula is necessary. I wish I could exclusively bf and have tried everything to get my supply up, but I don't make enough. So I combi feed. Others choose not to bf for various reasons, and that's ok too.

facts. If I could of had success with it, that’s where I’d be today. And I will not beat myself for it. Because a fed baby is a happy baby

8 week immunisations

My 8 week old has his first set of injections tomorrow and I’m abit nervous. Does anyone have any advice for after the jabs? I know they get a temp after so have got some calpol to give just before hand. Should I put him to bed in less clothing to make sure he doesn’t get too hot? Any tips from your experience with first set of immunisations? Am I worrying more than I need to? 😅

Signs of Neurodivergent Toddler

Any moms of neurodivergent toddlers who could help me out? My son is 13 months old. I know that is technically too early for a diagnosis, but I have a gut feeling that he is on the autism spectrum.

The main sign he shows is hand leading. He does not point at all, and instead will take my hand and lead me anywhere he wants to go,
getting very frustrated if I do not follow.

He is also extremely sensitive to being touched, especially when it comes to hats and putting clothes on. He won’t let anything touch his head or face and I have to fight him to brush his teeth, comb his hair, etc.

He’s very interested in things that aren’t toys and will repeat the same behavior over and over. He can go in and out of doors or walk up and down stairs for hours. He loves taking things out of containers and putting the back in repeatedly.

We recently took him on his first vacation and he REALLY struggled with the change. He struggles with any type of transition or change in routine.

He laughs, makes eye contact, mostly responds to his name, but doesn’t do any other gestures.

Normal toddler behavior or signs of ASD? Let me know your thoughts!

11 month old constantly standing in cot

Please tell me someone has some advice for this cause wow it’s trying. My almost 11 month old is fully on the move now and his new favourite thing is repeatedly pulling to stand in his cot. The problem is that he wears a sleep sack (mainly so his legs don’t get stuck between the bars tbh lol) so he’s not stable enough to lower himself down. So earlier he fell backwards and hit is head and now we feel like we can’t just leave him to it. Typically it’s his first full day at nursery tomorrow and my first day back at work IT’S LIKE HE KNOWS!!
Please tell me someone has some tips. Currently we are quietly placing him back on his back every time but he just keeps doing it! 🤣🤡
