And if I am not breastfeeding, I should not try this, right?

Right. They have a regular formula if you aren't breastfeeding. I believe it's similac advanced.

It may not make a difference, but you can ask your peditrician. I believe the Similac for Supplementation has more prebiotics than the Advanced formula and is made with partially digested milk, both of which make it easier on baby's tummy since it's more similar to breastmilk. I am breastfeeding, but when I needed to supplement, I used the Supplementation formula, as my baby seemed to be less gassy on it and liked it better than the Advanced.

I called Abbott Labs to ask about this.. I was told that Similac for Supplementation is fine to feed a baby who's not being breastfeed.. It offers complete nutrition.

I cannot recommend it on that basis. I do not use it as a milk substitute, only as an additive to my power meal mix.

doctors prefer not to feed baby cereal with bottles or sippers however you can use it whichever the way you want it has one slit on the nipple liquid comes out of it only if the baby press it with his gums well i dont think its a grrat idea to feed cereal with it rather try the boon silicon sqeezy spoon i love it i LO use make a lot of fuss while eating rice cereal but when i started feeding him with this spoon he can not say no to food...hope this helps!!

from what i have seen in 9 months the answer is no. if you want breasts then this product is great. it will give you all you want and maybe more. if not then i would say dont use it. what i have seen and read it stays with you for good. hope this helps

You should probably stay away from carb quick until after induction. Since this post was quite a few months ago I doubt it will be much help to you, but maybe to others.

I don't see why not, breast milk and formula are fairly similar (of course breast milk is best)

I think you should play on the safe side and contact the company, there may be something that reacts with dairy products that makes it unsafe. I wouldn't trust a consumer answering this question if I was you.

yes I think so. I've noticed that it is not as cool at around 7 -8 hours so I wouldn't push it much past 6 hours, especially with breast milk.

I would try without it first. They gave me one at the hospital when breastfeeding wasn't working due to how my nipples are shaped. You may not need one at all, and you have to train your baby to eat without a shield at some point when you use it.

I would not recommended. You take the chance of getting some into you digestive system.

Only if you can stomach the taste. It's the most ungodly product I've ever attempted to consume. (I don't actually know about the nutritional feasibility of living off of this, but I highly doubt you'd want to try.)

I checked the flyer that comes in the box and it said not to use while pregnant or nursing.

I am wondering if you took this while you were breastfeeding? Or did you decide against it??

yes, you can. I always put a drop into a breastmilk bottle to feed my baby.

no not at all. Just seperate all the pieces and i would soak them in soapy bleach water to release any stuck on milk and then scrub and rinse. these were great when i was breastfeeding. they helped with the boob to bottle transition.

I would assume so because it is organic but I wouldn't suggest giving this to babies less than a year old because they have certain nutritional needs in which cow milk doesn't quite cut it. Try Hipp or Holle which are sold on Amazon and eBay. Order it from the UK cause customs can be jerks when it comes from Germany. When I had big problems making breast milk my baby was very happy and healthy with those 2 formulas. I put these in his cereal or give it to my boy when my boobs have a bad day or I want to go out somewhere and not in the mood for the breast pump. He sleeps 12 hours a night, takes naps, colic went away, no more rash, no poo problems, he's big for his age, and the pediatrician said hes doing well in every way.
