Kendamil shortage rantšŸ˜”

So the past two weeks has been such a struggle to find the kendamil classic formulas itā€™s been ridiculous and lucky that I was stocked up. Had to use ready made bottles the past 2/3 days but today I finally was able to get hold of a pot. But I noticed the pot has changed (lid is different, scoop and scraper is wider) if this is the reason of the shortage I am so so angry lol, my boy doesnā€™t drink the ready made a like he drinks the normal bottles and heā€™s had a bit of an upset tummy. I really wish I could use a different brand because the constant stock problems is an absolute joke but any other brand thatā€™s been tried hasnā€™t agreed with my LO, the brand sent an email out a couple months back about upping the stock levels ā€˜in coming weeksā€™ I saw no change and if anything it got worse. Anyone else just getting sick of it, I canā€™t cope anymore no one should be searching in multiple different shops for hours for something so important Also for the subscription they do, theyā€™ve not been accepting them for over 6 months now! Iā€™m so desperate for them to open it up again but no doubt itā€™ll be stopped very quickly once they došŸ¤£šŸ˜«

Check sainsburys online itā€™s never failed me

And some Asdaā€™s still have on the shelf šŸ˜³ Not sure where youā€™re based but DM me for more I never let my stock go below 3 tins (Iā€™d panic as my boy only knows that too and eats a LOT) Yeah itā€™s a nightmare! This post has just reminded me to order some more! Thanks lolll Wish I didnā€™t start with it sometimes šŸ™ˆ

I had the same issue with the shortage I just switched formula because I got fed up of going to over 4 supermarkets looking for formula which with a baby is stressful

It's not the EU formula is it? The one that's made in Spain looks different to the UK one

If youā€™re near south east London eltham Sainsburyā€™s always have it x

Sainsburys in Norwood near the crystal palace football ground seems always have as well (and itā€™s not locked) Asda Clapham junction has it and itā€™s locked šŸ™ˆ

@Leah hi what formula did you swap to and how quick did your baby adjust to it? Been thinking to do the same x

@Sara I switched to cow & gate follow on as I used Kendamil follow on due to the shortage and he adjusted immediately and 0 problems that I noticed xxx

I tried sticking with Kendamil just going to follow on but then the follow on ended up not being available and I went to cow & gate and to be honest I would probably just go with cow & gate if I had another baby šŸ¤£

@Leah literally was thinking to do the same and said the same thing to my partner yesterday šŸ˜‚šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø. I wonā€™t have her on formula for long but donā€™t want to change her to cows milks yet as we are going for a long trip so Iā€™m the mean time Iā€™m thinking to go with cow and Gate. She hated aptimal so really hope she likes cow and gate. Thank you so much! Xx

I hope it works for you! My little is 10 months so not even that long til cows milk xx

Couldā€™ve written this myself tbh! I have been struggling with this so much recently (have also tried to always have a few boxes without going crazy in stocking up so others arenā€™t left without during shortage) but itā€™s just got ridiculous. I tried to give my baby cow and gate a few months back but she was flat out refusing so we just persisted with kendamil and sheā€™s never had issues / seems to love it. This time around (another mad craze to find it for days no stock etc etc) I tried SMA and she has taken to it well - after a bit of fussing for first few bottles. I canā€™t bear to upset her tummy and change / try anything else so weā€™re just going to stick with this as Iā€™m equally as stressed about not having formula šŸ™ƒ hope you manage to get hold of some!! Also my HV did say to expect some refusal / fussing but if you have to change they should eventually adjust and to bear with it even if their tummy is a little upset. Good luck xx

Itā€™s still available on Sainsburyā€™s online grocery order Just ordered a few yesterday
