My son's pediatrician recommends any of the Similac varieties (regular, lactose-free, soy, etc.)

They are all regulated by the FDA so there isn't really one that is better as far as vitamins or nutrition is concerned but whichever one your baby can tolerate is the one to buy. My daughter never had a problem but I had to try several with my son because of gas and reflux issues. Don't let anyone here pressure you about breast feeding either ! Many people are so quick to lecture about it when they aren't privy to your situation. Some people assume because you talk about formula that you are lazy or ignorant in caring for your baby. Good luck to you.

Depends on if your child will tolerate milk products or not. My daughter can only have nutramigine because her stomach gets upset, but now she is 10 months and we think she is ready to try a normal formula again.

I use Similac advance and he seems to like it. I tried using the similac soy for a couple days because its supposed to help with fussines and spit up but it actually seemed to make it worse!!! So I switched back to the Similac advance and everything has been good since :)
