[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually read your post unlike most of the other posters. If he's not taking formula, I would try pumping and then mixing the pumped milk with the formula to see if your baby will take that. That might help him accept the taste.

I understand why you would be uncomfortable buying European formula - it's not regulated and there are a lot of fakes out on the market. I would be scared of not getting authentic formula if I were ordering online, too.[/quote]

UK HIPP is more strictly regulated than any American formula (most of which are made abroad).  Go to a licensed distributor like formuland.com.

I tasted it.  It does taste like breastmilk and was created as a supplement to breastfeeding.  I highly recommend it.  [/quote]

Still not safe. [/quote]

Total nonsense.  You think all the UK mothers are risking their baby’s health?  What about the millions of US mothers with thriving children who have used HIPP and Holle?

Your baby needs more nutrition than you are providing.  Listen to your doctor!!! Do you seriously think your pediatrician would recommend a brand that isn’t safe for your baby?!  You’re being stupid. [/quote]

OP here. I don’t really care what others do. It’s what I feel most comfortable doing. What about recalls? HIPP had a recall a couple of months back. How will U.S. parents be notified? What if my baby takes it and I can’t get it anymore because of the supply chain issue? How can I be sure it’s not contaminated or stored properly? I’m not willing to give my baby formula that I can’t be sure is safe.[/quote]

How would Similiac notify you?  How do you know it’s stored properly?

You have to find a formula your baby will drink, OP, or he could face serious health risks.

Stop making excuses and supplement and pump.  [/quote]
