Enfamil Gentlease for a Gassy Baby?

We currently use Enfamil Lipil for our one-month old and he seems to respond quite well to it. He does, however, seem to have quite a bit of gas. Has anyone tried the Enfamil Gentlease formula for gassy babies and would you recommend it?

Question Regarding Enfamil a R

I just started feeding my six month old Enfamil A R because she was spitting up quite frequently and I have a question whether I should still be supplementing with rice cereal being that this formula already has rice starch in the formula. Should I still be giving her rice cereal or oatmeal? I dont want her to gain unnecessary added weight due to extra cereal feedings. Any suggestions from mothers out there that feed their babies Enfamil A R? Thanks :)

Enfamil Lipil W/ Iron vs Kirkland Formula

Hello, I'm down to breastfeeding during the night and using formula for all other feedings. Formula is expensive!!! I'm using Enfamil Lipil w/ Iron. At my last Costco purchase the cashier told me the Kirkland brand is 'exactly' the same. I did some research and there are some differences. Is anyone out there using Kirkland brand and like it?

Karo Syrup in Every Bottle???

My oldest step-daughter is a 20 year old single mother. She just recently moved back in with us. The baby just turned 3 months old. The first time she left us alone with the baby she showed me how to make her bottle. She told me to put Karo syrup in it. I asked why and she told me it helps her with her bowel movements. I never had a child of my own, but I have babysat children & babies and I have lots of friends with kids of their own. It stills seems odd to me to put Karo in every single bottle. Am I wrong about this? Should I find a way...
