They said got beetles in the powder, extra protein

Read the news. It states that SG is not affected & this is an isolated case in US.

I have friend's baby taking Similac. Her baby became huge in size, a 4 mths old baby looks like a 8 or 9 mths old baby.

My toddler son is taking Gain IQ now. They came from the same company.

Can gain weight meh? My DD take so long liao, still so skinny leh.
Thought of letting her try other brands.
I have one colleague who told me, not good to let BB stay on the same brand of milk powder for long. What she did is, every few mths change milk powder for her DS.
Not sure if it works for my DD :idea:

My boy was on Similac and other Abbott milk products too but not fat leh... very skinny in fact. My gal had diarrhoea due to Similac and now on S26. I tried to change her to Enfagrow but her appetite for solids became really bad. Tried Enfa myself and it turned out to be really sweet. Sugar kills appetite! Went back to S26 and her appetite came back.

Last time my DD was on Enfalac, find it too oily and maybe that's the reason she keep vomitting out. So change to Similac.

BB Dr. ask us to try Pediasure for my DD. Find the milk powder very sweet too. So now mixing Similac with Pediasure one to finish it.

I might want to let my DD try S26.
