Advice / Question 💡 New Kirkland gentle formula

Has anyone tried this new Kirkland procare gentle formula? We use enfamil gentlease for our 7mo and would love to switch to the much more cost effective Kirkland. My wife is concerned about it upsetting our son’s tummy but I am a big fan of store brand everything and convinced it’s all made the same. Waiting for a response from the pediatrician to see if they okay the switch over

I haven’t used this one but I did make the switch from similac to the regular Kirkland procare and I noticed increased spit up and changes in my baby’s poop for a couple of weeks when I switched. I just kept up with it and eventually, her stomach settled. Keep that in mind if you decide to switch!

Which Similac did you switch from? We’ve been on total 360 (blue) and my plan has always been to transition to Kirkland when we run out of coupons and free samples, lol.

We also used the blue total 360. Definitely make the switch! It’s sooooo much cheaper. We were paying $56 for a 40 oz tub of similac at Costco and now we’re paying just $30 for a 42 oz tub. Our Costco membership paid for itself in like a month just from saving on formula.
