Which formula milk is best?

fizzybee writes in Families & Kids

Can anyone tell me which formula milk they use or would suggest using for a 9 month old.

Have been using SMA from England but will run out before my next delivery is due so think it would be easier to change altogether to one available here.

Many thanks

hi fizzybee, we used Nestle which worked fine but then, due to price, started getting it from UK as its approx €15 in France compared to £7 (this was a year or more ago). They are all good im sure, its just thats it completely different brands to UK, i think the clinic where i had her pushed the Guignez (spelling) but im sure they had some sort of deal with them.

goog luck.

Modillac stage 2 is made by the same people who make SMA, my doctor recommended it when i stopped breast feeding and I changed from one to the other without any tummy upsets.

Its available in most supermarkets, the stage 3 is a little harder to find but it is out there.

Hello,

I turned straight to BabyBio or the other organic brand (cant remember the name) which can both be found in Biocoop or other organic shops. They are the same price as non-organic so it made sense. My little one went on to it fine after breast and then no problem again when went on to cows milk.

Good luck, Laura
