Aptamil comfort for us
I’ve read good things about Hipp and Aptamil but unsure what to go for. Reluctant to try Kendamil as the original has made my LG so sick and fussy. Don’t want to keep changing but she can’t stay on Kendamil. Another option is Carobel.
@Sophie did your LO have reflux? What made you go for Comfort over Anti-reflux?
@Charlie I feel for you both. I’ve heard good things about Goats milk. There’s just so many options it’s hard to know what to do for the best.
Reflux formula didn’t work at all for us. We found it to be too thick and our wee girl used to get frustrated as it didn’t come out the bottle easy enough. Ended up using a size 3 teat just to try and get the milk to flow and even then it didn’t work well (she was only 6 weeks old at the time!). After A LOTTTTT of trial and error, we found HiPP Organic stage 1 (not reflux etc) to be the best thing! She was also on Omeprazole which definitely helped but the difference when she went onto the HiPP was night and day and we had literally tried every single formula you could buy. Kendamill definitely was the worst out of them all though. I honestly couldn’t recommend HiPP enough! I’m due to have our next daughter in around 3 weeks and if breastfeeding doesn’t work out with this one too then I will 100% be going straight for HiPP x
SMA anti reflux for us was a dream!
Kendamil is usually quite good for reflux. It hipp organic. As you can see reflux formula doesn’t work for a lot of babies (it’s not addressing the root cause of the reflux) and even if it does reduce sickness, they can still be uncomfortable but not bringing up milk. What bottles are you using and what size teat?
@Alice the Kendamil was awful for my LG. Shes now on Hipp which is better but still has reflux. I’m trialing Carobel but she’s still sick. I’m using Mam bottles with size 0/1 depending on Carobel use but I’ve ordered the Philips Anvent anti colic to try.
@Becky I’ve messaged you
my baby’s on SMA anti reflux but still really really badly sick it’s horrid so i’m looking to change onto something else too
