I'm compiling this information to see what parents prefer to use so that if I get an even amount for both I will offer both for our customers to choose from. Do you have a brand that you prefer to use?

Brerastmilk is best! The WHO has called for the makers of formula to stop marketing their products as good enough and to stop giving out samples at hospitals. The powder keeps better and can be more convenient. You can put some powder in bottles and then buy a bottle of Aquafina etc at a gas station if need be. The liquid needs t be refrigerated or kept cool after opening. My sister used formula and the liquid was more expensive and more work than it was worth.

Powder lasts longer and it stayed good longer. I've used them both. I liked Enfamil gentleease...my daughter never had colic and hardly any gas on that formula. I could keep a can of powder and bottled water by her bed instead of stumbling around the kitchen at 4 in the morning.

I used breastmilk for all 4 of my children at the minimum of 1 yr and max of 15 months...formula smelt awful from what I can recall my sister used for her baby and very expensive...WOW can't believe how much they cost. Too many to choose from also....confusing parents. I prefer breast milk!!! My children are healthy and never has one of them had an ear infection. My oldest being 11 and my youngest 2 months!!!

I choose Liquid. It is a lot quicker than powder. With powder you have to get the lumps out or it will stick in the nipple. Mean while the child is freaking out. Thinking that you are a moran and don't understant what he is crying about.

I prefer to use powder. You don't have to mix it up right away so it won't go bad. I usually put enough water in a bottle and add the powder when i need it. plus it seems to last longer.

Well, I use powder on my 1 month old. We bought Nestle Good Start, The one that is gentle on the tummies. The doctor recommended that one.

i prefer concentrate. any parent that has a baby with reflux would prefer the liquid b/c its thicker than powder, hence it's easier to keep down. i use alimentum. i prefer similac btw

I prefer the powder. To me, it is more convenient to use. Especially when we are out of the house.
And to the person who claims that formula sucks, you should have just stayed away from this question. Breastmilk is best, but formula is great as well.
