You should talk to your ped. She may have a milk and soy allergy and need to move to hypoallergenic formula.

Are you making sure to give each formula a solid 3 days? I remember being so desperate to find what was wrong that i switched a few too soon. Is your baby throwing up or spitting up?? Throwing up, DEFINITELY call your ped-it is prob an allergy. Lots of spit up, well, still call the ped-they will prob suggest Enfamil AR or medicine for the reflux. We tried the AR but for us didn't help much, he actually just spit up thicker amounts. In the end we went back in Enfamil Lipil and he was fine. Good luck to you!!

Nestle Goodstart all the way. My DS could not tolerate the Similac or Enfamil (plus they all smell RANK!). Nestle has hardly any smell and a better consistency, IMO.

Same for us.

My DD spit up a lot - she still does- but it isn't as curddled as the Similac spit up was...

She seems to be more comfortable on it as well.

Re: problems with formula

My DD was on Enfamil Lipil -she was spitting up and gassy alot so I tried the Nestle Goodstart- no good for her.

Switched over to Enfamil Gentlease one night and she has been so much better ever since. You may want to try that.

Good luck!!!
