Getting bits together ready for hospital. I can't decide which baby milk to use? Any suggestions? Does it matter? It all confuses me Hmm

I started with cow and gate stage 1 but only got 2 tubs incase of allergies etc and glad I did as my daughter has severe reflux so changed to that one but they are all pretty much the same x

I got some Hipp Organic ready to feed for hospital, as ours does not allow powder milk (they provide with disposable bottles, and no facilities to wash and sterilise).
For home, we're eyeing wither continuing with Hipp or Kendamil, but if I cant get hold of these we will go with hopefully Aldi's Mamia formula.

Which is easiest for you to get hold of? We went for aptamil because it's available at the 24 hour Tesco at the end of the road. DS has been fine on it. They're all much of a muchness really.

There was a really good Channel 4 Dispaches called The Great Formula Milk Scandal that highlighted lots of interesting information about brands etc. Might be worth a watch if you want to make an informed decision about which formula you use?

We use Aldi Mamia at home and ready made Aptimil when out and about. I think all infant formula recipes are pretty similar. We've tried anti reflux and colic milk but just went back to Aldi in the end

I'm using Aptamil.
Had no problems at all with it.
Costs a little bit more than other brands but definitely worth it.
