Are you breastfeeding<\/a> your baby? Or are you going formula<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Whatever you decide, it\u2019s ok. At the end of the day, fed is best. The only thing that matters is that your baby is well-fed. Period.<\/p>\n

If formula is your choice, then you can easily get confused with all the choices out there. When I was searching the formula for Ethan, I was like, \u201check, I don\u2019t know which one to go for\u201d. How do you know which one is the best? How do you know which one suits your baby?<\/p>\n

Some moms, including myself, have the luxury of switching back and forth between different formulas. But for other moms, they can\u2019t afford to do so because of their babies\u2019 over-sensitive stomachs.<\/p>\n

The main difference between Similac Pro Advance and Advance<\/h2>\n

The main thing that distinguishes these two is that Similac Pro Advance has 2\u2019-FL HMO, which is a unique immune-nourishing prebiotic.<\/p>\n

Well, I personally don\u2019t understand all the capitals and short words. So exactly, what does 2\u2019-FL HMO do to your baby?<\/p>\n

According to Wikipedia, it is the most prevalent human milk oligosaccharide naturally present in human milk. It helps strengthen the immune system. According to Abbott\u2019s research, babies who drink formula with 2\u2019-FL HMO have the same immune system to babies who are breastfed.<\/p>\n
