Formula for combo feeding

If you combo feed, which formula are you using for your LO? Need some recommendations for my gassy 4 month old, so prefer something that’s gentle on stomach

HiPP Dutch

We use the enfamil neuro pro But I’ve heard that their gentlease is good on the tummy!

I just started combo feeding. Been exclusively pumping. I started with byheart and my baby has been taking it fine. No throw ups or gassy or fussiness so I think it’s really good

Hello ! I am currently combo feeding my 3mon baby girl we use the gentlease Enfamil neuro pro. Also Dr. brown bottle anti-colic.

We use the Kirkland brand formula. Great price and works well

Similac Alimentum bc he has a dairy sensitivity, which means I haven’t had dairy since March 😭

Similar sensitive! We went through 3 before finding the right one for him

i use the kendamil and recently starting combo feeding as well!

I use Similac and try to feed part breast milk along with the formula to help digest easier :)

@Jessie I was doing the same with Similac Advanced, had success by mixing in my breast milk with a bottle since I wasn’t able to get much from pumping (literally only 5-10mL) but couldn’t stand the thought of throwing it out after all the effort!

I am ebf now but before my milk came in I did supplement with enfamil gentlease, we weren’t on it long enough for me to really give a review but my MIL used it for both her sons and swears by it

Oh totally! Too precious to waste! I usually divide in separate bottles that way if she doesn't finish the breast milk I can use it the next feed. or start with breast milk and add the formula after she finishes the first ounce or whatever of breast milk. The Similac 360 has some that come pre mixed in small bottles or a bigger milk jug. A bit more pricey than the powder but much more convenient especially doing combo feeding. Hope you find what works for you, combo feeding is tough!

I combo feed an I use Gerber Gentle Soy cause she has allergy to dairy and my girl loves it. Very easy on stomach and seems like shes had less gas since i started it. My LO is 4 months as well ❤️

@Ireland did you use this? I have it in my cupboard. Also in the same position as the person that posted. Slowly trying to introduce formula. I haven’t opened this hipp yet. At first this week I tried Bobbie and he is a little fussy as it is so it’s hard to say if he didn’t like it. But I think he seems less comfortable than normal. It’s so hard to tell! But yeah did you like the hipp Dutch? Chat gtp recommended when I asked for the best a few months ago.

Enfamil gentalease is our go to for minimal spit up and gas. We like regular enfamil neuro pro as well, but it can lead to more spit up for my 4mo old boy.

We use Similac 360 total, they do have a gentle version of it. I had to stop breastfeeding after 2 months and this is what my ped recommended

I was recommended bobbie or kendamil by my pediatrician. Bobbie works well on my LO

My baby girl is gassy as well. I started using gentlease enfamil, but it didn’t agree with her so I’ve started using Bobbie organic gentle.
