Baby Formula Expert

Baby Formula Expert At Baby Formula Expert, we educate parents about infant formula and baby nutrition to help them feel confident in the decisions they make for their baby.

Baby Formula Expert is the brainchild of Dr. Bridget Young. As an expert in infant nutrition, and a Mom herself, Dr Young was frustrated with the lack of information and support available to parents who choose to feed their babies formula. She found herself answering the same questions from patients over and over again, so she founded BabyFormulaExpert.com as a resource for both parents and health

care providers. At Baby Formula Expert, we share the most cutting-edge research in the field of infant nutrition in easy-to-understand language. We also provide lots of step-by-step guides and hands-on resources for parents and health care providers. There are so many options in baby formula and parents are often left to pick one with no information. If a baby needs to switch formulas, parents can feel helpless and worried about how to choose the right option. At Baby Formula Expert, we help you eliminate that fear and feel confident in your decisions. We educate parents about exactly what differs between baby formula brands. We teach them how to choose a formula that is right for their baby while avoiding ingredients that may cause issues. If parents decide to switch formulas, our resources help them to do this like a scientist, leaving nothing to chance! We believe that you are the expert on your own baby! Our goal is to help you feel empowered and confident in the feeding decisions you make for her. This way, instead of worrying, you can spend your precious time enjoying your baby!

What is the Best Formula for Infants who also get Breast Milk? ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿคฑ

It's a trick question!!!

ALL formulas are regulated to meet the needs of infants 0-12 months.
ALL formulas are made to be a safe substitute for breast milk (when it's not available).
So it's silly to say one formula is just for babies also getting breast milk.

No matter if your baby is also getting breast milk or not - Focus on finding the best protein/ fat / carb blend that keeps your baby comfortable.

This will be different for every baby. Every baby is different and perfect. ๐Ÿ‘ผ

Breastmilk is creaaamy! ๐Ÿคฑ

The human infant was designed to consume a high-fat diet.
Roughly 50% of the calories in breast milk come from fatโ€ฆ. mmmm โ€ฆ. Now that is Creamy!
(It also sounds like my dream diet ๐Ÿฅ“)

All baby formulas provide roughly that much fat as well.
Almost all US formulas use a blend of vegetable oils as the fat source in formula.

Hey Mama - I know you've reached for gripe water at 3AM, just feeling desperate.
You tried swaddling. You tried an extra feed. You tried burping. You tried singing.
Now you're exhausted and doubting yourself.....I know. I really do.

Well gripe water and gas drops are amazing tools we parents have!

But they work in different ways. Once you know how each may help ... you can determine what is really bothering that angel!

You can't guarantee the baby formula recipe you find will meet all your baby's nutrition needs. ๐Ÿšซ

There are a LOT of recipes out there, and none of them have been certified.

Worse (yes, it gets worse) you have to depend on commercially purchased ingredients and supplements which are not regulated for quality and safety.

Its just: NOT. WORTH. IT. ๐Ÿ™…

FAT in breast milk is the most variable macronutrient.

Not only does the AMOUNT of fat change over the course of a feed and the day.

But the TYPE of fatty acids that make up the fat in breast milk change depending on what Mom has been eating ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ

This is great news for formula-fed kiddos since it means that human babies are designed to be able to handle a lot of variety in the fat in their diet.

This is why I suggest you prioritize the choice of protein and carb over the fat ingredients.... because your sweet angel will likely adapt just fine to a variety of different fat sources in their formula.

You're doing an awesome job!

The healthiest brownies you'll ever bake ... and you won't believe how rich they are! ๐Ÿ˜‹

Life hack for all toddler baking - just sprinkle a few chocolate chips on top of the batter. The littles are very focused on what they can see and won't even realize there are not chocolate chips throughout the batter.

Yes.... I am an your baking fairy godmother ๐Ÿงš

5 Reasons WHY Dr. Young Can't Every Support Homemade Baby Formula โŒ

1๏ธโƒฃ The recipe is COMPLICATED
2๏ธโƒฃ One small mistake in the recipe (too much OR too little) can go wrong really quickly
3๏ธโƒฃ your baby doesn't get any other food - so small errors are exaggerated
4๏ธโƒฃ You can't make formula sterile at home. There is always a risk of bacteria sneaking in!
5๏ธโƒฃ You have to depend on commercial ingredients which are NOT regulated for quality or safety (yikes!)
