Parent's Choice Milk Based Infant Formula — 

Exactly the same ingredients as Enfamil Lipil. And it doesn't foam when you shake it up to mix the powder. With my first child i payed for the best of everything. Nothing was too good for my baby. Even though my pediatrician reccomended generic formula to save money since we don't qualifiy for WIC.  Well the second time around I did some research on infant formula's and learned that the company that makes store brand formula's gets their ingredients from the same supplier as all the other big named infant companies. I also learned that some of the name brand companies have been sued by the company that makes the generic formula's for saying things like "our formula is the only one with... (insert ingredient here) on their lables...  and they won the lawsuits. Thats why the price of Enfamil has gone up about $5 a can in the last two years. 

My second baby, who is 4 months old now, has been on the Parents choice gentle formula since i stopped breastfeeding at 6 weeks. He was spitting up a lot with my breastmilk so i thought maybe it was the protein or lactose or something thats why we used a gentle formula. But he still spit up until my pediatrician diagnosed Reflux. Now he is on The regular Parents choice milk base and he is doing great. We put rice cereal in each bottle to help with his refux (as directed by my pediatrician) and he is also on zantac. He never spits up anymore. This formula is half the price of Enfamil and Similac and it works just as good.
