Formula

I'm in the DMV area

Where in the dmv r u located? Wic supplies free formula u just have to apply. And on top of that I recommend local resources. A lot of churches and other places have formula for free. Or even ask your babies doctor as they get a lot of sample cans that they tend to give to mothers who need it. No cheap formula is the best in my opinion but it depends on how ur baby takes to formula. In the hospital they usually give u entail or similac unless u bring ur own that is different. I use entail and get it provided through Wic and local resources

I use mamias which is Aldi own it’s real cheap and my boy seems to like it x

I use aldis own too and we’ve had no problems and my daughter has loved it!

This might help you pick. Im not from the US so I dont really know much about what you have available. Kendamil is sold here in the UK and all baby formula here has to meet incredibly strict rules which means every single baby fornula no matter the cost is nutritionally the same. So hopefully this helps.

You could try pumping. I didnt have the anatomy for my daughter to latch so I ended up pumping. I know you can get pumps on your health insurance usually

I used the formula that the hospital provided. Similar 360. The doctors office seemed to always have coupons in the waiting area. I also found big box stores like BJs & Costco had the best price and would accept the manufacturer’s coupon.

I used HiPP. Ordered from Germany. Got bulk discounts and they always threw free snacks/pouches in my orders
I found it was cheaper than the American formulas. I'm in md
