Switching from RTF formula to powder at older age?
My little guy is 11 months and I'm having a hard time finding his similac formula in RTF. I have a few cans of powder from the hospital. Is it okay to try to switch this late in the game?

I say yes. I've switched back and forth a few times with no issues.
My ped also said I can switch her over to whole milk by 11 months. You may want to talk to your doctor about doing that

Its fine to switch, but I will say the few times we tried it with DS, his sleeping was affected! I think the RTF was just thicker so he was more full! However it was prior to him going on solids!
ETA: And while your at it, I would probably try doing the switch to Whole milk...why wait if you are having a hard time with getting the formula
(unless of course your DS has milk issues)
