When i put my son on Formula (after going back to work) i went throug eight differnt types, Some of therm i found i used only one bottle then threw the tin away as he wouldnt even try it.  In the end i went with Karicare Soy.
If possible, try any travel or sample size formula in different brands to see which your child prefers. Good Luck.

When I first changed to formula from breastfeeding quite a few people told me that S26 and karicare had caused consitpation in their children.  I subsequently started my daughter on Nan with no problems at all.  She made the transition quite readily and experienced no problems.  She has also had the Heinz Nuture formulas, again with no dramas.  My main advice would be to stock up when they are on special, also the "Gold" varieties have minimal difference for the extra dollars that you pay.

hi there s26 gold is the best but can be expensive another good one which i recommend is SMA cheap and very filling for a baby its the thickest and baby tends to not want more in between feeds this was recommended to me by a midwife as my son was drinking so much formula(s26) he wasn't getting enough so she told me to go on SMA and he cut right back and took the recommended amount each day

good luck you will find the best!!!

There are many brands on the market and they are all of around the same quality.  Nan and S26 have been around about the longest, but they are also some of the most expensive.  There is a brand, I'm not sure of the name now, but it starts with S in a pink tin. It is half the price of S26, but it is made by S26.  My mother in law and sister in laws used it for all of thier kids.

I breastfed my kids until they were at least 7 months old and then put them onto diluted cows milk . I also added Pentavite (a vitamin supplement from the chemist) so they got the vitamins cows milk lack.  I found this to be much easier, because I didn't have to wean them from breast to formula, then wean them from formula to cows milk, but I would only recommend this is you if your baby is over 6 months of age, and if you do decide to wean onto cows milk, make sure it is diluted  down, at least 50% water.
