Formula?

So Kraig and I are about to go on vacation with our friends Brian and Kimberly to St Johns! I can't wait!!! The bad news is I'm not sure I have enough milk stored for the full week now that my baby boy eats A LOT more than he used to. So last night Colton has his first formula bottle. We tried Similac Advance with Lauren and it upset her stomach, then switched Isomil (soy formula) and then eventually moved to Similac Sensitive because the other two upset her stomach. The Sensitive worked great so what did I do this time??? Bypass the first two and start out with Sensitive first with Colton! He did great! Drank a 6 ounce bottle and acted like he could have ate more! This will allow my family (who is keeping the kids while we are gone) to stretch out the Bmilk for the full week (hopefully) instead of having him on all Bmilk one day and then all formula going forward. The plan is to have him on Bmilk all day but formula at his bedtime bottle. I'm afraid if we make a hard switch it will upset his stomach #1 and #2 since I plan to continue nursing when I get back I don't want him to get used to all formula and no Bmilk. :-) So if this is too much info for you...sorry...I just like to document everything! LOL So I wanted a date on here so I would know when Colton had his first formula bottle and it was when he was 7 months, 1 week and 1 day old. :-)
Have a great Memorial Day Weekend everyone! We will!!!!
