Where Did Our Formula Go?!?!

Hi moms! Yesterday I went to Sam's Club to buy formula for my son, Enfamil Premium Lipil, is the one he drinks. And I always buy it either at Sam's or Costco because it is cheaper. But yesterday that I went to Sam's there wasn't any! That never happens. All they had was Enfamil Infant. Then I went to Costco and I got the last 2 that were there, but they were also stocking up on Enfamil Infant. So I was wondering what had happened. And if the Infant one is the same thing. If you know anything about this please let me know :)

What can I do next?

Call or email the company. You can also talk to the manager at Costco or Sam's and they will know if it is back ordered or if there is a problem.

They switched packaging, but it's the same formula. They have enfamil newborn, then enfamil infant, then enfagrow (which is when your baby is ready for whole milk anyway). Same formula, different name/package :)

I believe they are the same thing. Enfamil is changing the packaging to 'stages' so that they can sell more of the toddler stuff.

Enfamil Newborn
Enfamil Infant
Enfamil Toddler

Edit:
I just checked the website, and yep its the same. Just new packaging, eco-friendly, same stuff.

If all else fails go to Ebay and buy it there!!! I am not sure why Sam's and Costco are changing over...Happily in our family we are just beyond that....My kids were on Enfamil Nutramigen...you know the EXPENSIVE KIND. I had tremendous success saving money bidding on Ebay for 6 months! :)

It's the same formula, but the newborn has more Vitamin D in it, and it's only recommended to use until the baby gets 3 months old. After that, then you just use the Enfamil premium.
