I love the Cow and Gate formula. It’s the only formula that my children don’t throw back up! Easy to prepare and kids love it. Only downside is £9 for a box when you’ve got a newborn is a lot. But it’s worth it if the child is fed. Great product overall. - Strengths:

I couldn’t fault this product at all! It’s so easy to prepare, and doesn’t make half the mess others do! It’s full of so much goodness, and had been recommended to me from so many other mums. Fills baby up, and keeps them happy until their next feed! I have also recommended this feed to other new mums as I think it’s brilliant, also they have the hungry baby option too which I think is so good! - Strengths:

We using this milk from day 3 after Our son born, and it has been fabulous.
He seems to be like it from first day We introduce it to him, growing nicely and quickly, so far haven’t experienced any problem regarding to the formula.
And we know so many family’s around us whom using this formula and it has been perfect for them as well.

We brought a more expensive milk just in case little man didn't take to breast milk which due to other circumstances was unable to feed him but he was throwing it up so we changed to this and he drinks it straight down and it stays down so we will be loyal cow and gate customers and stick to this also for follow on milk and baby food.

This formula milk is so brilliant.I was introduced to it in hospital after my son was born as I struggled producing enough milk for baby.My son absolutely loved it and didn't freak out as I first did combination feeding as he could not get enough breast milk. However baby had really bad colic but still loved this milk now he is about three and a half months.We tried the anti colic product for Cow &Gate and baby did not like it at all so we continued supplementing with the normal one and He loved it.Even though baby is totally breastfed now we have even introduced slowly the rice and fruity porridge for Cow & Gate which baby loves. - Strengths:

Absolutely amazing formula, my daughter was originally on aptamil, she was constantly being sick, when moved to cow and gate she slept better and wasnt anywhere near as sick, plus being cheaper is also a benefit.

Easy to open, spoon is provided with the formula, making measuring easy. Price is good compared with some other brands.
It’s helpful that it comes in powder or ready made for long days out. My newborn has taken to this formula very well. -

This is really good milk but only thing is the product isn’t as good as natural breast milk. I used this on both babies but my third baby I will be breast feeding as it is a lot healthier and better for the baby. - Strengths:

I tried my son on cow and gate for the first few weeks after he was born, he didn't seem to take to the powdered version or the ready made. Each to there own. Just didn't suit him. - Strengths:
