We bought the Nestle Good Start Gentle Plus Formula in order to accentuate feedings as the baby is starting to grow.  The idea was to use it to supplement some of her meals as she can't always receive milk, and when she is being watched by someone else it is easy to prepare formula for the little one. ...

     I am a mother of two and nursed both my son and my daughter exclusively for the first six months. Then, about the time they started solid food, I starting supplementing with Nestle Good Start Gentle Formula. I've never had a problem when introducing the formula alongside my own milk. No upset tummies or diaper surprises.

     When my son's appetite grew beyond what I could naturally produce, I asked around to find out which formula(s) worked well. I was lucky that I had a couple of other new moms in my friends and family circle to ask. One of the biggest complaints about other formulas...

Nestle Good Start Gentle Plus Formula was our saving grace, for both of my girls. It's been many years since I've had to buy formula, but I make sure to tell all new Moms, who choose to bottle feed, about Nestle Good Start. Both of my girls had tummy issues and had trouble digesting regular formulas. We tried soy and Enfamil, but each time, they would scream during their feedings. With my oldest daughter, it took me almost 3 months to figure it out. When my second child came along, I tried the other formulas, but within the week, we were stocking up on Nestle Good Start.

On top of being kind to...

Good Start Gentle Formula

Soy Plus

(for lactose intolerant babies or babies who reject milk- based formula)

 

So, I recently found out that my nine- month old baby, who's been on milk based formula since birth, is lactose intolerant. I guess that accounted for all the extra dirty diapers, but still, I knew n othing about what being lactose intolerant entailed nor did I know what to do about it. His doctor recommen ded I remove him from the milk -based and switch to a soy -based formula which would be less likely to upset his stomach. He recommended Good Start Gentle Formula Soy Plus, and...

I used good start gentle plus with all three of my children while i was breast feeding. My kids would take nothing else. It was the closest to my milk I believe and it calmed their little tummies. My kids all had upset stomachs when they tried all the different formulas. I tried about 5 with my oldest son. He would trow up all of them, except for the good start. It was easy to digest. I was the mom who did not feel formula was good enough for my children. I wantwed to breast feed all the time but with my schedule it was not possible for me anymore. It is packed with protien, vitamins and minerals....

When I gave birth to my daughter, I was going to breast feed. There was no option! I wanted to breast feed my baby because I knew that that was the best thing for her. Unfortunately, I didn't produce enough milk. I was so depressed. The hospital recommended Good Start formula so thats what we started wtih. I was very skeptical of formula feeding because I was breast fed as a baby and wanted to do the same for my daughter and have that close bond that I always read about while reading pregnancy magazines. Our bond is stronger than ever and she is a very bright and active baby! My daughter has...

Both of my children were raised on this formula. My daughter used the soy formula, and my son is currently on the cow's milk-based. They have beautiful skin, no allergies, a great immune system, and are growing perfectly! They also have never had any issues with formula-related diarrhea, constipation, or excess gas. Good Start also offers GREAT coupons in the form of a check, and it really helps! I would recommend this product to anyone with a baby!

I was so worried before when i first had my baby on my hand coz he was in the hospital for 1 week for he has sufferring some infection. That first day he was home he was so fussy and crying a lot and its because of his gas.  I have been trying and looking for formulas that would make him feel better. Then one day me and my husband decided to try Good Start Gentle Plus. It was so great it helps me and my baby rest well at night. That day we started the change of the formula he was not so fussy no more, he feels a little bit fussy at first but then the following day he was not no more as he was...

In my experience with Nestle Good Start Soy Plus I found that it was not for my granddaughter. In order for her to keep it down and not spit it up we had to put baby food or cereal in her bottles, because just the milk itself would not stay on her stomach. We told her pediatrician this but were not able to change formulas because it is on the WIC Program. Without a prescription from your doctor WIC will not change the formula and it is almost impossible to get the prescription from the doctor. It seems to me as though we are being forced to give our children things that aren't appropriate for everyone....

I just had a baby 5 weeks ago abd we sarted hi on simulac and then found out that he could not have it because WIC only offers Nestle Good Start for mothes and they just changed that in the beging of the year.  I have always used simulac and never used Good Start, so I did and The first week all he did was spit up and cry and only started after he drank the good start. So I put him back on the simulac and then he was fine, WIC wanted me to try the other kind of good start and see if that will help with the keeping the formula down and the fussyness to stop, so they switched him to protect plus...

I started using carnation good start 8 years ago. It is by far the best formula that you can buy. Although it is more expensive i have noticed that my child spits up less and it doesnt cause as much gas. That is comparing to simaliac and infamil. It has the easy to digest protiens. The proteins are a 100 percent whey which are the highest level of proteins that you can get in formula. My kids love the taste and it does not stain nearly as bad as its competitors. It also has more than just powder form you can also by it in a ready to use can. Which is more convient for the on the go mother. All...

The Nestle's Good start was the third formula I tried with my kids.  My 1st son used it because a few years ago it was much less expensive and was a great name brand cheaper than the other name brands.  The price then went up and I began to use it with child 3 partly because I had coupons and partly to see if spit-up was significantly decreased with it because my baby spits up often from some mild reflux that was diagnosed this year.  At first, the transition was slow from Enfamil to Good Start.  The baby was extremely fussy the first 5 days of changing formulas.  She got less fussy as time...

i use nestle good start with my 7 month old son. he has a sensitive stomach and he has always been able to take this down and keep it down. when he was first born i used infamil with iron and he would always spit up, or he would get realy fussy due to and up set stomach. then i switched to similac advanced, and still had the same problem. so i asked his doctor what would be a good brand to use, and she suggested the good start senistive brand, and sure enough, he loves it and it got rid of the fussiness and the up set stomach and the spitting up. also it is a little cheaper then the other brands,...

Nestle Good Start Gentle Plus Formula

Nestle Good Start has been a life saver. My daughter started out with Similac and had horrible problems with spitting it up. It got so bad that I would cover myself when I fed her. We tried Enfamil but she was still spitting up some. Tried Good Start and it was like a miracle formula - her spitting up issues disappeared. Also, no more rashes, no more gas, and very easy on the ever-dwindling wallet. It also helped in relieving constipation which was caused when using Similac and Enfamil. I would recommend everyone to get it  a try because it worked miracle...
