Someone told me that Cow & Gate and Aptamil are the same formulation as C&G own the Aptamil brand. Maybe he wouldn't notice if you got the equivalent C&G. A long shot I know (maybe stick with the powder!).

when ds was in hospital the nurse told me the ready made stuff is thicker and creamier so if they have it a lot and you try to give them powdered they will know the diff and reject it.

was just going to suggest a different brand , just for tonight, if it is only one feed or so?

NappiesGalore · 14/01/2007 21:46

really twinkle? thats interesting, am prepared to try that theory out (tho i cant be arsed to do it tonight now - lets just hope that he accepts the stuff we've got when he wakes in the night. shouldnt be encouraging him to wake for milk anyway, i know i know...

yeh it would be bad, probably make him constipated, sick who knows.

then again my step brother did it with his lo whos now 12 months so who knows.

Interestingly I have not been able to get these in my Tescos or Boots for a while now. Must be a manufacturing problem.
Get the formula in the tin.

thanks mrs noah. have just been to waitrose and bought the whole shelf full of the ready made stuff, ta.

he was refusing the tinned/powdered stuff for some reason. anyway, hes 1 this month so ill be mixing the stuff he likes w cows milk to get him on that so i wont have to bother w all this formula hassle. how people do it from birth is beyond me; i couldnt be that organised if my life depoended on it!
