Hey I’m planning on breastfeeding for the first few weeks, I breastfed both my babies till they was both around 10 month this time I’m not wanting to breastfeed longer then a month as I have many reasons why I need to know what’s the best formula out there and what you ladies recommend xx

I think which formula you choose all depends on your baby to be honest, & I'm not sure there's a huge difference in what they all contain to be fair as obviously there are certain standards that need to be met.

I'm bf this time round, but my first had cow & gate and she got on perfectly fine on that xx

It’s soooo hard to choose isn’t it 😂 my friends all say cow and gate . My second little girl was a very sicky baby with acid reflux so she never had formula and my first was 15 years ago so I’ll be honest after breastfeeding I cant remember what I gave her after lol xx

Aldi do their own now too, I've heard good things about it- and it's cheaper than all the other brands which is a bonus

Hey I’m using the Aldi formula and my daughter is fine on it. I was using SMA until a friend told me it’s practically the same as Aldi milk for half the price!

We used Aptamil after bfeeding. It smells like breastmilk!
