Comments about Enfamil A.R.®:

My 3 month old daughter has been on Enfamil since I stopped breastfeeding at 6 weeks. Unfortunately, I had to try two other kinds of Enfamil before I found her the right one. My daughter developed acid reflux and was basically spitting up everything after each bottle. Worried about her losing weight, I decided to switch to the Enfamil powder formula that included rice(starch) as directed by my pediatrician. The first bottle there was no spitting up and I was impressed! I am so happy now. The first negative is that it doesn't have that "sweetness" to it. So I take it's a little bland to baby. But she's doesn't mind. She just doesn't make that happy hum when she eats because it doesn't include corn syrup(solids). That's how I knew the others tasted good. The second problem is it's so frothy when mixed. I had to make the holes larger in my already med-flow nipples because it seems all she sucks out is bubbles, which resulted in her fussing until I figured it out. What's weird is it stopped giving her the hiccups but takes her forever to burp?! Which she never had that problem.The two other main positives, besides her not spitting up; is it made her a daily pooper. Lastly, it doesn't stink when she eats it. I found the other formulas stunk when she ate it and it left her bottles smelling terrible. Now, I don't have that problem.

Thank you Enfamil!

      Comments about Enfamil A.R.®:

      My doctor recommended that my 4 week old son with Acid reflux use rice cereal in his formula.(My son was extremely fussy during feeding and vomiting to the point out was coming out of his nose)After doing my research i found out that adding rice cereal at that age could cause a huge choking hazard. That terrified me to know end. Then a friend recommended Enfamil A.R and I tried that instead and its been amazing. The rice starch is so much safer than actual rice cereal for my newborn and the spitting has improved tremendously. I love iy and would always recommend it

      Comments about Enfamil A.R.®:

      My daughter was brestfed at first. When we switched to formula it was very hard. She nearly spit up half of it. A.R. changed everything for us. For a while I thought it worked to good! She now spits up a little more because she is crawling, and eating solids.

      Comments about Enfamil A.R.®:

      My 8 week old has acid reflux and was having trouble with spit-up. All the other formulas for gas and sensitive stomachs contain corn syrup and suger which made her acid reflux worse!!! We tryed rice cerial in her formula but it clogged the nipples. We tryed the enfamil A.R. and was hooked. She barely ever spits up, has less heartburn and less tummy upset. Wish I found this product sooner!

      WOW!

      I had an 8 week old that spit up most of her bottles at every feeding! She was always hungry and would cry! The first feeding with the AR was a miracle! She spit very little up and was full to the point where she dozed off. It is nice to be able to play with your baby on her back and not have to worry about her choking on her spit up! The baby is no longer fussy! Thank you!
