how do i know which one to buy before baby is born.
i understand that once baby is born you can buy the one they prefer but what about before they are born.

Charlotte seems to prefer Aptimel. I've heard a couple of people say it's closer to breast milk. Dunno if that's true though.

I had Olivia on Cow & Gate and it didnt agree with her at all... I then moved her over to Aptimil, Its made by the same manufactors so I wouldnt say theres much differences between them but once I chnaged all the problems we were having settled down and she's a happy healthy baby,

Most Formula milks are pretty much the same, I wouldnt say one is better than another, personally I thinks its all to do with what agree's with your baby.

I was thinking of buying milk in advance but have been advised to wait until after birth. As someone i knows baby was but into SBU after birth and the nurses started it off on a different milk to what they had bought at home, so baby was used to this after the five days they were in hospital.

think I am going to go with Farleys - my friend just recommended it so thats why we will see if he takes to it or not but I plan to breast feed so might not need it for a while
