Changing Formulas
The boys hate powder and we're having a REALLY hard time finding RTF similac ever since new years (the stores blame it on the recall).
They HATED Gentlease (enfamil) when we tried several months ago and this morning I tried to give them Good Start but they weren't taking it.
Any suggestions for easing them into another brand (especially since i still have leftover similac I want to use up)?

Re: Changing Formulas
RTF in general is more pungent than powder, and I know that similac formulas taste sweeter than most other formulas
Maybe mix a little of the formulathey liked with new one you want to try to get them adjusted?

Is that true? I didn't realize it? It's funny because I can't stand the smell of Similac its is soooo much more pungent than Goodstart.
