Similac Baby

what happens in wic in your state only does enfamil, but your baby only can use similac?

is there any way they can change it? my state only does enfamil! my son only does well with similac... and not the powder, only the ready made kind.

When the powder is reconstituted it is the same as the ready made, so I'm not sure that it can be shown that there is a medical need for the formula that is easiest for Mom to deal with. But if you can show, and your pediatrician will write the Rx for it, that this infant cannot tolerate Enfamil, but requires Similac to thrive, then the program will work with you.
Incidentally, if you're looking for easy ways to feed your baby, the answers are on your chest. I breast fed my daughter and my twin sons. Never had to worry about the cost of formula... Never worried about how much formula to pack in the diaper bag... And my husband slept on the couch for the first few months. I slept topless with a twin at each side of me. If someone woke up, I just turned toward them. I slept so well when the twins were newborns! My friends who bottle fed were always so tired after night time feedings....

Babies: Formula

If you’re new mother, you already know that breastfeeding is best for your baby. But not everyone can successfully breastfeed. What’s important is that your baby gets the nourishment he needs to develop and thrive. If your baby isn’t thriving on breast milk, then you need to switch to formula. There are many different options to choose from.

The brand you choose isn’t important. All formulas are prepared according to FDA regulations which specify minimum and, in some cases, maximum nutrient level requirements for infant formulas, based on recommendations by the American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Nutrition. These regulations and the Infant Formula Act help to make sure that all infant formulas are nutritionally complete and safe for your baby.

The American Academy of Pediatrics does not endorse or recommend that your infant drink any specific brand of formula if you choose not to breastfeed, except they do say that low iron formula should not be used.

Baby formulas mostly differ in the type of sugar and protein that they have. Regular iron fortified infant formulas, such as Similac Advance, Enfamil Lipil, and Nestle Good Start Supreme are made with lactose and cow's milk based proteins. Most infants who are not breastfeeding exclusively should be given a cow's milk based iron fortified formula.

Soy formulas are made with soy protein and are lactose free. They are good for children who don't tolerate lactose or milk proteins.

Elemental formulas are also lactose free and are made with hydrolysate proteins, which are easy to digest for infants with protein allergies. If you have a family history of food allergies or formula intolerances, you might choose to start your baby off with a soy or elemental formula if you do not want to breastfeed.
