I just started to feed my son Parent's Choice milk based formula and now I can't get him to eat his old formula(I have about a half a can of this stuff left and I hate to waste it). What do I do with the old stuff? Thanks!

If it's the same stuff (make up and similar ingredients) then I would combine them. I would do half and half. My son did the exact same thing and that's what my husband and I did. We didn't waste the other can at all.

She could be speaking on the subject of the tainted formula in China, which has particularly not something to do with US formula as this is not offered right here. i've got been giving my son workstation formula on the grounds that he substitute into around 2 months previous. he's now approximately 6 and a nil.5 months previous and has by no ability been sick, not regardless of a chilly. you're effective and so is your woman offspring!

hi there i wouldn't suggest mixing the two formulas together as you would'nt want baby getting sick as they are completly different formulas all depends on how old your baby is but if old enough you could make rice cereal that you buy in a packet and add the milk you can feed them this from about 4-6 months or pureed porridge with the formula.

The new formula may have a sweeter taste to it that your son prefers. So if you mix the new formula w/ the old one he shouldn't even tell the difference! Good luck!

Mix it. Maybe do 1/2 a scoop of the old stuff with the new stuff. It won't hurt and you can get rid of the old stuff at the same time.

if there both just your normal milk formulas just different brnads then you can mix them but if one is for instance a lactose intolerant one and the other is a soy or something then you would have to throw one out,or use the old one with the babys cereal and the new one for his milk only,you can use the old one to mix with his farex and rice cereal that way you wont have to waste it at all

Give it to someone who needs it. That is what I would do. Otherwise keep it in the back cupboard for emergencies. I have formula that isnt right for my baby hidden away incase there ever comes a day I need to use it.;

Well if he wont eat it, then he just wont eat it. It sucks to have it go to waste. Formula does expire after 1 month of opening the can just to remind you.
