Suggestion for Infant Formula That Creates Less Gas

Hello: I am hoping that one of you might be able to point me in the right direction. I am looking for a formula that creates less gas for my 2 week old son.

Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, A.

Newborn with Horrible Gas

My 4 week old is having horrible gas pretty much all the time but it seems like it gets worse in the afternoon & evening. She will wake up in the middle of a nap crying uncontrollably & kicking. She is on Enfamil Lipil formula. We've recently switched to a different type of bottle to see if that would help.

My One Year Old Baby Girl Is in 10Th Percentile for Her Weight. Any Advice?

Drinkable Breakfast for Toddler

My son is 19 months old. I've been noticing that at breakfast, sometimes he will eat and sometimes he won't. More often he will eat a few bites of Cheerios and then want his binky and be done. When I sit him down, I give him milk and either bowl of Cheerios w/milk or a cereal bar. I've tried other options but he's just not a morning eater. I was thinking that on the mornings he isn't up for eating, maybe I could give him a breakfast shake or something. Has to be something I can mix with milk so he's only getting one sippy cup. Any suggestions?
