Did you switch from the infant formula to Enfagrow? It says from 9 months. DD is 10 months and I am considering making the switch. I do see a difference in the vitamins though. She does take a vitamin and eats a pretty healthy diet for meals.

no. I kept him on formula until we did the switch to milk. Those step up formulas are partially a marketing ploy. They are good if your DC is having issues with milk transition.

Agree with PP. My ped said Enfagrow is simply a marketing ploy. Keep your LO on enfamil until they are ready for whole milk .

Thank you! I will! I never thought about asking at her 9 month well visit.

Formula until one and then to whole milk.
Ped said those toddler formulas are really only for children who don't eat properly, aren't gaining weight, have issues getting nutrients etc.
For a normal healthy baby, totally not necessary.

I used the Enfagrow Gentleease when DD was 12 -15 months as we were transitioning to milk - it was cheaper.
