Follow on milk or infant milk?

I'm going to start weaning my almost 7th month old off the boobs as I'm going back to work soon & can't be dealing with expressing all the time. He has had formula milk before, usually the pre made stuff as it's been used when we went to a wedding or we were going out & I forgot to express. He's not fussy about his milk, as long as he gets it! However, as he will be using formula milk more often should I get the follow on milk or the infant milk still?

The NHS only recommend first stage milk, they don't recommend follow on and in fact there is some research that suggests the added iron in formula can impair mental development.

It is upto you though Smile
