 Easy ordering formula July 18, 2010
Margaret G. Oney
I have been ordering Similac Advance for several months for my great grandson. It has always arrived on time, or ahead of time. I love taking care of business thru Amazon.com. Our great grandson is healthy, happy, and I credit the Similac Advance Earlyshield RTF Baby Formula for at least part of that.

Same great formula at an awesome price July 2, 2010
Good Deal Buyer (Houston, TX)
This endorsement is mainly for the Amazon subscription program. We get the same great formula from Similac at an awesome price. I really like the subscription program because we get the formula delivery like clock-work. I don't have to make a run to Babies 'R Us anymore to lug around all of those cases, and save on overall price.
We are subscribing with Amazon for items that need regular refills. This is a great program!
 This milk really makes our baby really sick!! :( April 16, 2010

Sorry to give this 1 star. but this milk really makes our baby really sick!! :(, literally!!
if your baby can take it, I guess it's a good one but for us, we had the worst experience with it.
Here is our story.
My baby had been solely breastfed. After 9 months my wife was running short of her milk. She didn't have enough breastmilk for the baby and he didn't take as much solid food as we would want him to.
We gave him Similac Advance, it was recommended by the hospital. First Similac Advance Liquid, he threw up 9 times within 2 hours after half an hour of feeding. That happened twice. A few days later, we tried Similac Advance power, he threw up again! This time 5 times plus serious diarrhea for 5 days. He has lost 5% of his weight within 2 days. That's really bad.
We were desperate. We took him to the hospital twice that week. The doctor though it was stomach flu.
However, I didn't quit agree with him. What a coincident that 2 different formula milk feeding incidents would throw my baby off balance. I'm a computer engineer and dealing with solving and debugging problems all the time.
I was firm with the doctor that this was not a coincident. I thought it might have something to do with the protein in the formula that my baby couldn't digest. We decided to try Lactose free formula (Nutramigen from Enflora). It smell and taste really awful (my wife tried it and she gagged.
As we thought, my baby rejected to drink it. Then I tried Good Start soy. Same story, smell bad but not as bad as Nutromigen. My baby also rejected to drink it.
Now we were really desperate, not enough milk for him and he doesn't like to eat solid food!! He would throw up + diarrhea if he gave him normal formula milk. Phone call to 4 advise nurses, no luck! I finally search on the internet and found a lot of similar story to what we experienced (including this on Amazon reviews).
I decided to give it a final try, crossing our fingers really tight. Good Start Gentle Plus is our last hope or my baby would not have any more milk to drink. He's losing weight!!
And then miracle happened!!! This milk works wonderfully for him. The only complain I would have is that it doesn't smell as good as the normal cow milk-based formula, however, doesn't smell or taste awful like the other two.
My baby didn't quite used to the tasted in the beginning and didn't really want to drink it at first. So we tried mixed it with breastmilk for a few days.
Now he is a happy baby, gaining weight, doesn't throw up and used to the taste of it.
My wife and I are now happy again :)
Great Buy Heavy to Bring Home April 3, 2010
Lori O'Brien
Great formula my grandson has been on this since his mother had to stop breastfeeding. He seems to think it is just as good and is growing very fast. He has gained 13 pounds since he began drinking this and he is not chubby. He is very tall. Better to have delivered than to buy at store and have to haul it home. Too heavy for a grandma.
Close to breastmilk and no worry & save money February 12, 2010

I like this ready to use, beacuse not sure of the water and formla mix, especially if traveling.
