So, for the last few months of her first year we had to resort to formula. Of course, I went with a name I knew I could trust. Earth's Best is the top of the line when it comes to organic formula. At our local co-op, it is about $6 more than from Amazon, including shipping and tax! |

Even though this wasn't available in the smaller 8oz size which I would have prefered to ensure that my son liked it, I went ahead and bought it since he's not a fussy baby and easily took Similac and Enfamil earlier.
I used formula only to supplement breastfeeding and gave about 2-4oz of this daily to my son for 4-5 days. During this time, we noticed that he was very cranky and didn't slepe well, would scream even in his sleep and keep curling up and rolling in bed, sort of banging his face and head on the mattress. I attributed this to teething or constipation. But when over the weekend I did not supplement at all, he was completely fine. Then to test, I gave it to him again after he had been fine for a couple of days and had also pooped well. Even after just 2 oz in the afternoon, he started doing the same thing...screaming, rolling in bed, unable to sleep well.
I also read that there is an issue with the way the DHA is obtained, using some toxic chemical, when researching this formula to find if other mom's had seen the same issue with their children. I give it a 2 rating as I don't know if it just didn't suit my child or if there is something not good in the formula. |

It is a bit pricey, but at least I feel better about it being organic. My wife uses warm water in the bottle to ease mixing of the powder. I use cold water and shake - I've not noticed any difficulties.
I'm no scientist, so I have to believe the label. It advertises that they are only using Organic stuff and nothing bad for the baby. It costs more, but it allows me to sleep better and believe I have done something "good" for the child's health. That said, if money was tight Enfamil woudl serve just as well. |

I used to use Vermont Organics, which is also a great formula, but I switched to EB because it's more economical.

Littell "Sammy LiL" | 0 | 0 | 4 | 1328659200 | My son loves it, i'm pretty sure I do too.. | I order this from Amazon and a hugely discounted price. In my area it is $29.99 for a 23.2l one can, which is nuts. When I first subscribed I was only paying $74.97 for 4 cans. That's around 45 dollars in savings, I got 3 shipments at that discounted price, and that's $135 in savings. Now I pay around $86 which is still a lot cheaper than going to the store. Plus only Toy r' us sells it where we live, and that's not exactly close to me. So that's why this product gets 4 stars.
I would have given it only 3 but the savings are great. To start off my son does love this formula over any other. We ran out once before the next shipment, and Toys r' us was closed so we had to get another brand, my son wouldn't even drink it. Now some of you are gonna say that's because it's not what he is used to. Well we actually started him off on Enfamil, but due to corn syrup being the first ingredient in the formula we switched (not because it's corn syrup, but because I don't want my son's primary diet to be based off of any sugar). Well when we switched that time he didn't even care. Also this kid eats a lot. He is a big boy, lol... The doctor says he is a healthy weight so whatevsky.
The reasons I don't care for the formula. First of all it seems like his bowel movements aren't as regular. Also as soon as we switched his BM's turned more solid and smell inhuman. His stomach does get really tight and it seems like he has a hard time pushing his poopies out because it's so solid. Before his stomach would get really tight but then it would just gush out, oh the joys of parenthood. After talking to the doctor there apparently is nothing to concern ourselves about. Secondly I wish they would offer this in a 6 pack, as 4 will not last the entire month anymore. We end up having to buy 1 can locally towards the end of the month which at 86 dollars a shipment basically means the money we saved just goes towards 1 can. Other than that I think this formula is fine, and our son loves it very much. He would rate it a 5 and write "MMM" 20 times in the review. :) |

| 241639 | 241639 | B0081XPTBS | A22SLOCNWIZA9J | PeytonFamily | 0 | 0 | 2 | 1324339200 | If there was a better option for the price, I'd take it. | I should start by saying I only give my baby 4-8 oz of formula a day, otherwise she's breastfed, so the issues I have with this product minimally effect us.
It is important to me to give my baby organic food whenever possible, so that is the main reason I picked this product to begin with, also when I purchased the price was better than other organic formulas and it doesn't have corn syrup in it.
The downsides:
It is difficult to mix, you must use warm/hot water in order to get the lumps out. And it gets ridiculously frothy when shaken up, like the entire bottle is foam. What I do now is make a bottle at least a few hours ahead of time and stick it in the fridge, by the time I need to use it, the air bubbles are gone.
My baby is not a picky eater at all, so I can't comment on the taste of it.
Update: My baby is now 7 months and takes about 16-18 oz of formula a day. We noticed that she had been spitting up a lot since increasing her feedings, she would spit up without fail after a feeding, not matter how well she was burped and she would spit up again, sometimes 3 more times in the next hour. When I happened to run out of this brand and had to use some similac, the spitting up nearly disappeared. If I had to guess it's due to all the foam in the bottle, but perhaps it's one of the ingredients? As I mentioned in the above review, the amount of shaking that has to be done to dissolve the formula is ridiculous. Even with very warm water and a lot of shaking we'll have lumps of undissolved formula in the bottom of the bottle. I am very disappointed because the price is right and it's one of only 2 options of organic formula that isn't full of arsenic. Unfortunately a new shipment of 4 of these canisters arrived after realizing this, so we're stuck with it. But I think I will mix it with another formula to minimize the spitting up. |

Glad to have an organic option, but I wonder about the source of the DHA & ARA - it does not seem like a very organic process. However there are not a lot of choices, so this seems the best out there. Plus baby seems to like it and tolerates it well.
Lately I'm having a harder time getting the product to dissolve when I mix it up in the bottle. Not sure if this is due to weather changes? It seemed to dissolve better in the summer. |

It smells better than the other stuff, she adjusted to it just fine when mixed with breastmilk, and her gassiness disappeared. It is sometimes hard to get it all to dissolve easily, but room temp water and very vigorous shaking seems to remedy that. Now that she is full time on the formula, the 4-pack on subscribe and save can't be beat!
While we initially had the same powder explosion problem another reviewer commented on, we learned that because we live where it's hot and the package either sits on a hot truck and/or on our hot porch until we get it, if you just let it sit until it's down to room temp, it won't explode on you! |

My baby boy does get constipated sometimes from this, but I don't know if that's the formula or the solid foods or just his system because it works great for my daughter. I have tried Similac Organic prior to this and that was VERY constipating! This is much better and not as grainy as Similac. The cheapest way to buy this is through Amazon on their subscribe and save program. I have been addicted to Going the Amazon route for all my baby supplies. Of course conventional formula is cheaper, but I don't want to compromise my infant's health by giving her formula that can have pestisides, hormones, and genetically modified ingredients! I would definitely recommend this product for anyone using formula. |
