My little one was such a fussy eater when she was first born and after trying this formula she became much better! It's reasonably priced, readily available at supermarkets and quick and easy to make up.
The back also tells you how much milk your little one should be consuming for their age and weight. - Strengths:

The only milk that my daughter can use, it fills her up, cheap enough to buy too!
She has struggled with other formula and this is the only 1 that has satisfied her without any troubles. I would recommend this from birth. - Strengths:

Best milk powder by far, easily digested by my daughter. Other brands tend to make her sicky and colicky for some reason. It’s easy to prepare and mixes well. - Strengths:

My little one is combination fed so doesn't get fed this everyday but it is cheap and lasts about 4 weeks so good value. She can be a bit sicky but manages to keep this down. I'm not sure if this is a downside but it takes about 7oz to fill up my six weeks old baby which seems like too much to me. However it does fill her up for a while and I never loose the spoon that come with the tub since there's a specific bit for it. - Strengths:

My own mother used this product when me and my siblings were babies it's been trustworthy for her and it was my 1st choice when choosing a brand to put my own child on the last thing us mother's want to do is make our babies poorly so trusting a brand we were fine on is definitely
The way to go not only that they have so many options for changing your baby as they grow. Or even babies who suffer constipation and colic a great and ideal substitute when we're told no water until 6 months plus - Strengths:

My daughter has been on cow and gate since birth and we have had no trouble with colic or reflux.
Cow and gate is a popular brand with is a good price at £9 a tub, one tub lasts us a week with my daughter having 8oz every 4 hours apart from night time.
The milk comes with a handy scoop and a small information leaflet.

Great product to be used from birth. My eldest took to this milk from the get go. Majority of the time the milk is easy to use and make bottles easily. Only issue I had now and again not very often though was that the milk powder sometimes found clumped together and not as fine as the rest of the powder in the milk packet. - Strengths:

My baby was throwing up the formula that was given to her at the hospital. Tried this when we came home and she seemed a lot more happy and content after drinking this. My little one hasn’t thrown up since drinking this however she only has one bottle at night as it’s heavier on the stomach compared to breast milk which she gets during the day. However great product. - Strengths:

We used a different brand of milk with my first born, and he was such a sick baby.
So thought we would change brands with our new baby. She’s hardly sick at all! So impressed! -
