Enfamil Vs. Similac with Early Shield

You may wish to consult with your child's pediatrician. We went with Enfamil ultimately because our child was a happy spitter and we had better results with the Enfamil. Additionally, we found that it mixed better and more smoothly.

It really depends on how well your baby tolerates either since really neither comes closer to breastmilk than the other nor is as good as breastmilk.

With my son he tolerated Nestle Good Start best as that caused the least acid reflux and was gentlest on his tummy. I suggest reading the back of the package carefully if using any formula now because those that have probiotics added can't have hot water added right away and need the boiled water cooled before adding. If you add the hot water right away you negate most of the benefits the probiotics give.

I also suggest talking with your doctor before making any switch since your doctor would be most familiar with which formula is better suited for your child.

Talk to your peditrician, but just as my experience with my daughter. We started her on Enfamil because that was the freebee stuff we got from the hospital and then tried to switch to similac as i got more coupons from them and she refused it. Would not take it all, so we used Enfamil for the first year.

I am going to try to breastfeed with my 2nd but just in case i can't again, I am going to try Nestle good start as i have heard good things about that one.

it all depends on ur child but i used similac personally i think its better plus my daughters pediatrician said its way better than enfamil
