I went through a journey to finally determine my 4 1/2 month old daughter had a milk allergy. She would have breakouts beginning at 5 weeks. The first diagnosis was baby acne, which developed to skin rash all over her body confused with eczema. It actually did look like eczema. Her face began to look horrible. She would scratch all the time. She also had bad cradle cap. My doctor recommeneded this formula within a week the cradle cap was gone and her skin began to clear up. By week two she stopped scratching. All of this was confused with signs of eczema. The formula is expensive.....Insurance will sometimes pay for it.

We have tried at lease 4 types of formula. Our son wouldnt keep anything down. He is lactose intolerant and wasnt even able to handle the senative formula. Finaly we tried Nutramigen. It worked WONDERFULLY. The only downfall is that it is very expensive

Our pediatrician reccommended this when our infant was suffeing from Acid Reflux and Colic. HAt 4 months we switched him and had a horrible month of crying. As soon as we put him back on it, he was a happy baby again.

My son is 8 weeks old. We tried 5 different formulas before this one. After 3 feedings he was not fussy or in pain (from a belly ache) anymore. He would scream and cry during feedings and this formula has changed that :) We had major constipation issues with other formula and this formula works wonders to move bowels. This was more of a concern for us because our son has spina bifida and one of the problems that can occur is a loss of bladder and bowel function from nerve damage. It would take our son 7 hours sometimes to have a bowel movement while using other formula. As soon as we made the switch he became more regular and did not strain at all to have a bowel movement.

My daughter would projectile vomit after almost every feeding. She would scream and cry a lot. Her little tummy was like a rock. We fed her an ounce then waited 15 min, then fed another ounce, then waited 15 min, so forth and so on to keep milk in her so she would grow. We tried 4 or 5 different formulas because she had thrown up formula from the very first time she tried it, but when she started throwing up my breast milk I knew something was wrong. After some online research I found out about Nutramigen. I decided that I was going to buy a 12 oz can and give myself enough days for her to eat the entire can before I had my own sanity meltdown. The next day she was a brand new baby. She was calm, smiling, and cooing. She was not this screaming new baby I had grown accustomed to for the past 2 months. I honestly didn't expect a formula to work as fast and as well as Nutramigen did for her. Yes, it's on the expensive side if you don't qualify for any assistance, but well worth every penny. Another con would be that the formula smells bad/weird. She has never shown any indication that it tastes bad to her, but she started smelling like the formula after we switched to it. The best way I could describe the way she smells would be to say she smells like a "cheezit" cracker. She poops just fine on this formula (usually 1x per day), but if for some reason she doesn't, I just give her some juice and the sugar from that starts moving things right along.

My baby was screaming after most feedings straight from the hospital. I questioned the staff about the possibility of her having a cow's milk allergy, but they agreed that it may be too early to detect. After changing her formula 3X, I finally discovered Nutramigen around 4 WEEKS old. Now at 4 MONTHS old, she has become a very happy baby with regular bowel movements. Sometimes a little explosive, but without the screaming & little to no discomfort for her---- or me. Have tried to change to a cheaper formula, but she has not been able to tolerate anything else. All in all, I would rather pay the price for a happy, healthy baby.
Suggestion: Try to see if your insurance carrier covers this formula

My son went through 4 different formulas before he was two months old. Nutramigen was and is still the only thing he can eat without getting stopped up for days and spitting up. he is 4 months old.

The first two months of my son's life were a nightmare! He was either sleeping, nursing/bottle feeding, or screaming!! I was distraught, I had tried everything and wasn't taking the "oh it's just colic" answer anymore! Our pediatrician recommended Nutramigen and cutting dairy out of my diet, I was skeptical but desperate, so it was worth a shot. Within 24 hours I had a completely different child!! He's 10 months old now and has been a happy baby ever since! I owe my sanity to Nutramigen!! (Especially since my hubby was deployed at the time, so I was on my own!)
