[danna04]

hi mommies!:) these are the choices i have for my daughter. she's turning 6mos na in a week. i have no idea kung ano pinaka ok or pinaka maganda sa 3. tho the pedia said it would be fine to take GAIN na since ka brand nya ng current milk nya w/c is Similac. well i just want to hear feedbaks and opinions of other moms thank you!

(pls re-direct me if there is an existing thread/topic. thanks!)

Hi mommy,

My baby boy was a s26 gold drinker when he was below 6months, i was on a deciding moments when he turned 6months last january, my choices are same as yours, though my comparison is there nutrients content.. as the commercial says "always check the label"

We all know na ara, dha are for memory enhances and taurine as for alert minds, yun yung factor na hinanap namin ni hubby and of course yun comparison din nun kung ilan yun bawat nutrients content nila per serving.

Actually ngayon promil gold na pinagamit namin though gusto ko yung enfalac a+ kasi siya yun may pinakamataas na nutrients content compared to promil and gain, ang promil kasi may ara and dha pero walang taurine, ang gain naman may taurine pero walang ara and dha.

sa akin, ang promil kasi nagustuhan ng baby ko because of its taste and texture, thick kasi siya pag tinimpla mo plus ambango pa, ang cons nga lang, minsan constipated si baby ko, sa enfalac kasi though maganda dahil may ara and dha na may taurine pa, kaso parang medyo thin yun milk texture niya pag tinimpla mo, nad nun time na half half ginawa namin nun yun kalahati ng milk is s26 gold tapus yun enfalac eh natubig yun poop niya kaya feeling ko di siya hiyang, tsaka di niya nauubos milk unlike sa promil eh super ubos niya yun milk and minsan bitin pa yun isang timpla, yun constipation niya nun una binigyan namin ng suppository for relief para makapag poop siya, pero ngayon since 7months na siya, and nag-introduce na din kami ng solids, di na ganu problema yung constipation kasi nakakapoop na siya regularly through the help of fruits and veggies na pinapakain namin sa kanya... yun lang po....

enfapro a+ samin. enfalac sis yun ang stage 1 milk. so enfapro na ang next, kasi yung enfalac from 0-6m lang

sis, si ava, s26 gold then promil gold then progress gold,

she's turning 3 na this May, and nag try ako ng ibang milk pero ayaw nya, it's up to you kung ano sa palagay mo ang makakabuti sa baby mo ang mga pedia kasi minsan kung ano yung brand na affiliated sila, yung yun nirerecommend nila like Ava's pedia.

For me, maganda ang gold series based on our experience.  may LUTEIN kasi na wala sa ibang milk.

[beatrize zuri]

will always be enfa series 

[sweetcake]

sis ano difference enfagrow a+ and enfapro? my baby's currently taking progress gold 4.3mg lang dha niya per serving..

[aquacharly]

Promil

[scents01]

Baby ko naman hindi hiyang sa enfalac a+, ito yung original prescription ng doctor..then we switched to s26 lactose free..so malamang promil lactose free na sya next month, at 6months..

[dada08]

tama ba mga mommies, after ng Similac, Gain na ang kasunod?

[plusfortquetous17]

Yup after Similac, Gain na. Abbott milk. Enfa series, meadjohnson. S26Promil Wyeth 

[clueless]

^ yes, gain advance plus for 6-12m, gain plus advance for 1-3y.

[computerfairy]

Baby ko naman promil gold tpos pinag switch cya sa promil lactose free. ok naman sana yung lactose free kaso walang aa and dha.

Parang gusto ko i-try yung Enfa kaso 1oz 1scoop, tama ba?
Parang ok din yung Gain plus.

[scents01]

^yes sis, 1:1, mas maliit scooper ng enfa

[computerfairy]

^thanks sa info, sis. akala ko kasi same size ng scoop. 

[iluvmysoldier]

i prefer the enfa series though hindi masyado naiinom ng baby ko since he's still breastfeeding, pag lumalabas lang kami saka siya umiinom ng formula.

i heard matatalino daw ang enfa babies eh

[kLeng]

my baby drink similac from 0 - 6 months then the pedia said na gain plus na [textspeak!] sunod na milk ni baby.. so we buy gain plus kaso hindi hiyang ang baby ko.. nag constipate siya ng sobra.. so i called the pedia and informed her kaya sabi ni Doc changed kami sa promil gold.. and humiyang naman si baby dito..  i agree mas mabango ang amoy nito to compare sa gain and similac ....

[anjfree]

My baby drinks enfalac a+ pero ngayon sapilitan ang pag drink niya ng milk sawa na yata. Since 6 months na siya, his pedia advised to switch to enfapro a+ but she said same lang taste ng dalawa. Kaya I will try Gain plus advance baka sakali lumakas ulit mag milk. Gusto ko talaga enfa series siya pero worried ako sa intake niya.

[ayami]

We haven't tried Enfalac, pero we often buy Promil and Gain.

Promil mas mahirap matunaw kesa sa Gain. Makakailang alog ka bago matunaw completely. Mas cheap ng mga 200 pesos.

Yung dalawang yan lang kasi pasok sa panlasa ng anak ko. Basta pinagpapalit-palit namin altogether with Nan H.A. 3. Pag nagsawa kasi yun, pahirapan ulit magpadede.

Gain kid ako btw, yun lang preferred ko nung bata ako. Wala kasing matamis na lasa. Ewan ko na lang yung ngayon (di ko naman tinitikman haha).

Promil for my baby
