Wow $400/month is crazy expensive!! How do people afford that?! Good thing you got it free.
I am trying to figure out how much formula we'd be talking about... she nurses about 4 times during the day, then has a bottle of formula at BT, then nurses the DF and a NF if she wants one. Since she is only taking one 6oz bottle a day right now, a can of formula lasts us a long time.
We give her Enfamil (I have a can of Enfapro waiting now that she is 6 months old), so middle range stuff I guess. If the cheaper stuff is just as good then that is great! The only one I won't touch is Nestle's brand because I boycott them.
She is being tested right now for intolerances so I am going to wait a bit and see what happens there. And we spent the afternoon in the ER yesterday because she had a fever of 103.5; another ear infection. That explains the refusal to nurse.
So I am going to stick it out a bit longer if I can, but I am kinda thinking that it won't be long before we make the switch.
Thanks for the info, I appreciate it!
