Transitioning to Formula

I would like to transition my 5 month old from being exclusively breastfed (nurses and drinks from bottle of expressed milk) to taken a bottle with formula. Any tips and advice on this transition? Is there a brand of formula that he would find tastes OK? So far we have tried mixing formula with breastmilk (25% formula) and he definitely can tell the difference!

Picking a Formula

So, I breastfeed my daughter right now but I would like to give her some half formula half breastmilk bottles before bedtime. Is there a formula that tastes more like breastmilk? Or one that some of you breastfeeding moms would rather use? Thanks!

I am now debating between keeping my son on Similac Organic or switching him to a non-organic formula that uses lactose for sweetening instead of cane sugar. Which do...

Does Anyone Use Earth's Best Organic Formula?

I just saw a news report today that stated "Rocket Fuel" has been found in infant formula. In the study, they said they can not identify which brands were tested...it's the same story when they found melamine in some of the brands! So, I was thinking about switching to Earth's Best Organic Formula because I already use the organic rice for my 6mth old. So, do you or do you know anyone who uses organic formula? Did it have any different side effects? Any advice would be appreciated...breastfeeding is no longer an option.
