Canada Enfamil A+ to Enfamil

[AmyR]

Hello Ladies. I breastfed for 7 months, and now my baby (almost 8 months) is completely weaned. I was giving her enfamily A+ but we recently switched to regular Enfamil....mainly because it is HALF the price. We did some research on the added DHA and ARA and felt that given she is eating a wide variety of foods including egg yolks and fish, that we should be fine feeding the regular enfamil. My doctor said the same, as long as her diet contains the omega 3 and 6, it is fine.

I just had a hard time with the switch because of the guilt. I felt like I am taking away a better product because of cost....

Anyone else have a view on this ?

Thanks!

Im using the A+ right now. Condensed milk. But my LO is just a few weeks old and I never looked into the other ones. I just kept her on what they gave her in the hospital. But like you said your LO is eating other foods and getting her nutrients other ways so Im sure its ok

I think you've got a good handle on it, and saving some $ too, so good for you! I use enfamil for fussiness and gas, my LO has the worst gas issues. 7 weeks old and we r still trying to get it right. I BF til 5 weeks, and she was miserable. But anyways, it really sounds as though you did your homework. I wouldn't feel guilty you sound like a very informed mom!
