My son was born a month early and I was required to supplement with formula along with breastfeeding. The hospital started us with a different brand of formula and the baby would scream and cry with gas pains. Our doctor recommended Nestle Good Start and gave us a sample. He took to it right away and didn't notice a different in taste. Within two feedings I noticed an improvement in my son. No more screaming, crying, withering in pain. So I continued using it and completely switched over. Feedings were no longer a struggle. I began to do mixed feedings with me nursing all day and then a bottle of formula at night as he would sleep a solid six hours. I was always pro breastfeeding but I felt good about giving my son this formula and that he was steadily gaining weight. By four months, I couldn't keep up with his hunger demands and we went exclusively with formula. He is almost 7 months now and it's the only formula I buy. He has no digestive issues and made the transition to baby purée with no problem. His milk still always comes first!
