Right now I am using Powdered, both my other kids used it also. My 3rd child has more problems with gas and fussiness. Could the bubbles from where I shake the bottle with the powder be causing the gas? Would it help at all to switch to the ready to feed formula? Which did you or would you use? Thanks!

I'm already using the Dr. Browns bottles.

Another option, since the ready-to-use is so expensive, is to mix it in advance and put it in the fridge, until the bubbles all disapear, Then you can either run it under hot water or drop it in a bottle warmer.
The playtex things are kind of a pain, but they DO get rid of the bubbles.

We still don't know why some babies are gassy and others aren't. I think that you should try ready to feed formula, and if it works, stick with it, at least for a while. The extra expense is worth the peace and quiet.
If you remain with powder, follow the advice of another responder and mix up several bottles at a time. It only takes a few minutes for the bubbles to settle out.
Good luck.

have you tried the playtex bottles with the drop in liner? you can squeeze most the bubbles/air out of those. my nephew had the same problem but these bottles where the remedy. ive also heard that the dr browns bottles (while 6 bucks a peice) work MIRACLES

use the playtex vent aire bottles or avent. if that doesn't help I believe there is a formula for gas.. I just can't think of the name. I know my baby for a few weeks after she was born she was gassy but that went away like around the first month

I don't know what Dr. Brown's are, but I had to use the bottles where you inserted the bags in them. That way you could squeeze out all the air before feeding.

My daughter is 5 weeks old on Friday. She was have a hard time with gas and spitting up. We just had to switch her formula to Similac Isomil Advance. My oldest daughter could not drink the formula that is already to feed. She would spit up more. We had to use the powder kind. I would talk with you doctor and see what they tell you.

sure, the are waiting to eat. Open and serve. (Do spoon the foodstuff right into a dish if accessible. in case you feed from the jar you will could desire to throw out any leftovers, considering the fact that germs from toddler's mouth will contaminate it. in case you serve from a separate dish, the left overs could be saved in the refrigerator for a pair of days.)
