There’s a lot of worry about which brand of formula to use but unless theyre allergy specific they’re much the same! We used aptamil last time with no issues and this time will try cow and gate as its basically made from the same factory just a little cheaper!
I'm planning on taking the Kendamil ready to feed bottles, so don't need to worry about sterilising.
You will need to use whatever brand you are planning on using in the long term. For me we started with SMA but baby didn’t take well to this and it made her reflux worse. We then switched to cow and gate which worked better for us x
