I’ve seen this on fb today so it’s a bit of a worry. My daughter used this with her son and would have been using it with her new baby so im interested in what Ppl have to say about this xx

I always found cos and gate to be the best but everyone will have their own ideas about what is best

Thank you kate xxx

Apparently the Aldi version (mamia I think) is exactly the same as the old aptamil and half the price. I use aptamil but haven’t used a new one yet and picking up any old ones I find x

We used to use Aptamil. Then our son got colic and suffered with constipation and the Aptamil comfort just wasn't working so now he has Cow and Gate comfort and we've never had a problem. It's sorted out his constipation and helped his colic so much. He barely has trapped wind.

All our friends use or have used Cow and Gate and have had no problems xx

My sons had constipation with Aptamil but he has water which helps. And now seeing what’s happened with the new milk I’m going to take him off it and put him on cow and gate.

Thank you chick xx
