Soo my son is now staying on the Neocate for sure.  I checked out Ebay and saw a lot of people selling cases of it cheaper than ordereing through the Neocate website.

I am a little nervous to order infant formula via E-bay,but there are tons being sold on it.  It is still packagaged in the factory box.

Just wondering if anyone had experience ordering formula online and if it was a bad idea.

It woudl save me roughly $9.00 a can and we are using 1 can every 2 days.
Thanks, Wendy

I got both Neosure and Nutramigen from E-Bay.  Much cheaper.  The only problem I had was she changed formulas both times, so I had useless stuff laying around.   ::)

There are a lot of people that order neocate off ebay on another forum I use and they don't seem to have problems. I would just make sure the person who you purchase it off has good feedback.

Yeah I have an entire case of Nutramigen that I just had bought and will not use now.  I am going to sell that on Ebay.  

I will give it a try then and buy it.  Still nervous, but gee it is so much cheaper.

Which formula did she end up on?

Gentlease, and Prevacid.  A generic formula came along about a month before she turned 1.   ::)  Green poo on whole milk, lactose free for about 6 months.  Now on regular milk and doing fine.

Did she not have to be on the Neocate or was that when you weaned her off of it?

Never used Neocate.  Preemie formula, Nutramigen, preemie, Gentlease.
