I was always advised tl go wirh what they sell at your local shop!

All infant formula is basically the same. In fact, Aptamil and Cow and Gate are exactly the same, the manufacturer just covers both ends of the market cost wise.

I was recommended aptamil by a maternity nurse but they are all the same really, they have to follow strict regulations so I would say aptamil, cow&gate or SMA are all much the same, in hindsight I would have gone for the cheapest!

Thanks

What age is baby? What are your reasons for moving to formula?

Only wondering because sometimes BF gets easier and harder at various stages but overall it gets easier as they grow and then formula is more work with sterilising bottles and making up feeds etc
