Formula - powder vs. concentrated? - Infant Care (up to 18 months old) Message Board

I currently use Enfamil Lipil powder but a friend of ours was able to get us 2 cases of ready to use for free. Will this hurt my ds belly if I start giving it to him?

Thanks for youe help!

No it shouldn't. I use both powder and already made formula and never had problem with my son. I guess if it's just the same kind as your baby has been using, I wouldn't worry. If you notice anything different when you ds start using it..I'd stop but you shouldn't have problem!

I agree - with MJ you shouldn't have a problem at all - as long as its the same kind of formula

DS is on the same formula and we switch back and forth all the time between powder and ready-to-use. As a newborn I noticed he had looser bowel movements with the powder but for the rest he was fine.

my first born couldnt tolerate the poweder and would get sick, so we always used concentrate, I think its best..IMO
