I just change my baby's formula from enfamil to trestle good start but he does not like it.?

Question

He only take it when he is starving which start to make hard the feeding. I have also compared the test and can tell enfamil test sooo good compared to Nestle Good start . but I like that brand. Is there any problem to mix it with enfamil to emprove the test? half enfamil and half nestle?

Answer 1

of course your baby doesn't like it, your baby would rather have tasty breast milk.

Answer 2

I use have Nestle and half Enfamil all the time. I do it because I have coupons for both that am trying to use up. Normally stick with the Enfamil though. My baby's now on the stage 2, Enfapro. I mix it with either.

Answer 3

I think you've got your own good answer! But I would start with less than half of the one he doesn't like. Put a little of Nestle Good Start in, then keep adding each day or two until the taste becomes more familiar. You can work up to half, and HOPEFULLY, he'll have the full Nestle Good Start before long. A few days of the "test" is probably worth the wait.

Answer 4

all formulas are regulated by the federal government and must meet standards to provide infants with the proper maximum needed nutrition.

Just give him what he will eat. Each brand has followers and "tests", but theres little one formula can offer a child that the other cannot.

Wasting feeding and causing chaos when feedings do occure is not healthy and can lead to colic and digestive troubles.

You can certainly try mixing them half and half. But its probably easier and simpler, and without much difference, if you just went back to what he will eat.

Unless he has an allergy to the previous formula, of course. If he does, try a third formula, or a soy formula.

Answer 5

You have to do it gradually. Start with mostly Enfamil with a little Good Start in the bottle....then gradually add more of the Good Start and each time you feed him until you've eliminated the Enfamil. Eventually he should get used to it. Should is the key word there.

Answer 6

You can't compare the taste if you are not the one drinking it. If he does not like it then switch back. That's the problem with switching. I was lucky though, my kids drank anything!
