[blparent] Playtex Bottles?

[Amanda Winkler]

You do have a good point about the formula. There are a number of formula 
brands and they have several different types of formula to choose from. I 
found this out when I put Audrey on formula it was the regular Infameal but 
it caused her tummy to get hard because she was retaining gas so we tried 
the "genital ease" from Infameal and that took care of her problem and had 
no other problems. So you'll have to work with the doctor to find that right 
formula for that particular child. Some children also have milk issues.
