i just find it so ironic that on the day we are changed from Gerber Good Start to Alimentum, this recall happens Chat Icon Chat Icon

PS - he is doing GREAT on the Alimentum! We are 4 bottles in and NO POOP, no spit up! Its been months since he hasnt spit up after a bottle Chat Icon Chat Icon




Glad to hear he is doing great with the Alimentum. It worked wonders for Lara she was like a new babyChat Icon

Re: PSA ..... Recall on Similac Formulas

FYI per the person I spoke to at Similac yesterday you should be able to return for CASH without a receipt. So far BBB insisted on giving me store credit (which I didnt fight because I was buying something else anyway) but BJs tried to pull that too and I called Similac from the desk (while I was on hold they relented and gave me cash).

does anyone know if the BJ's big powders were recalled? I saw that Costco's was-

OMG I hope i can get some formula tnight...



I buy all my formula from BJ's. I have 7 containers all recalled. We used all but 2 of them.



Thank you!

I would love to know if I could get cash from BJ's. I did go on the similac site and fill out my info for them to send me a fedex box and label to return them. But what would I get from them?

This is why I don't want to even attempt to return all 7 to BJ's I know they are going to give me a hard time and I am ****** enough as it is. I'm just going to wait and deal with similac direct. Annoying.

EXACTLY...u know the stores will get their money before we do...pleaseee it's just a shame they make us go through this and then we still need to find an alternative formula to give our babies. Which is another annoyance all together.

Re: PSA ..... Recall on Similac Formulas

I've been getting an thousand phone calls at work today about recall. Here is brand equivalents to help you out. (although each companies product is different, these are closest matches)

Enfamil Newborn

Similac = Enfamil Premium
Isomil = Prosobee
Allimentum = nutramigen (rtf), powder version has a probiotic in it lgg

Similac sensative (really no equivalent, this is a lactose free product) but can use

Gentlease = reduced lactose and partially hydrolyzed proteins

RS = AR (although RS is lactose free also)

similac now combined similac sensitive and similac isomil though. so it is noe similac sensitive isomil. thats what i buy. so i wouldnt even know what to get in substitution.
