Aptamil
Am 18 weeks pregnant and have decided to bottlefeed, have heard from a few friends that they found Aptamil the best and it also says its the closest to breastmilk?
How many of you use this? Wondering if you can let me know your good/bad experiences on using this?
There are so many out there it seems a mind field knowing which one to go for!

We tried cow & gate, sma and also hungry baby versions (would stay away from that as heard it upsets tummies etc)
With the Aptamil, it you go for the Easy Digest, then you need to use size 2 or easy-flow teats, as size 1's are too small - the milk is slightly thicker due to the Easy Digest bit! We tried easi-flow but lo kept choking as it came out too much, so we use size 2 - are using Tommee Tippee bottles and teats.

I use Aptimal Easy Digest and find it good. I started mix feeding to begin with (EBM from a bottle) and didn't notice any difference in LO between the Aptimal and EBM.
I think it is a case of trial and error to see which works for your baby.
Immense - Tash is from the same forum as me and a few babies in there have been clogged up by the hungry baby one. That is probably what she means. xx
We've had no issues at all and he is a happy healthy 11 month old. S x
I guess all babies are different and what works for one doesn't for another.
