| We use Cow and Gate. No idea why. Jamie didn't have formula until he was past the six month stage though and not with any regularity until 8 months. I don't know if others are better early on |

| We used cow &gate for Imogen. Tried Hipp but didn't like it. I think we went with cow and gate because it was one of the cheaper ones |

| That's probably why we chose it then. Or I think actually the cartoons were on special offer or something |

| we used aptamil first as it was meant to be closest to breastmilk, but it stopped elijah pooping so we used the green hipp organic which was fine for combination feeding (and was one of the formulas that didn't have fish in it!!!!!!!!) |

| with lily-ann we used sma gold, purely because that's what she had in hospital for her first week(besides some BM) and she had no problems with it
with lewis we tried sma gold, then aptimil but he had a lactose intolerence so he ended up going onto wysoy and not a problem after that |

| Cow and Gate and Aptamil are essentially the same but C&G is cheaper |

| Hipp Organic here. SMA smells like fish, Cow & Gate ready made was fine but the powder made Arwyn spew, Hipp was the first one she took to and we never looked back! |

| I used cow and gate then I changed to SMA because SMA was available in more forign countries than cow and gate and SMA was on offer more than cow and gate..she enjoyed both and never had problems with either. |

| with rich i tired sma but he was ill on it so tried c&g but he was still sick and then found it was due to him having a bad tummy. i stuck with c&g after though and he was fine.
with lucas hes on aptamil as i did a bit of research and found it was closest to breast milk, and hes been fine with it, |

| alfie started on aptimil after i finished breastfeeding cos it was closest to breast milk. but it made alfie constipated and gave him baf colic. then we switched to cow and gate comfort and he had no probs after that x |
