How does Similac Organic with A2 Milk compare to Similac Total Comfort/Similac Pro-Total Comfort?
Similac Total Comfort and Similac Pro-Total Comfort have partially hydrolyzed whey protein for easy digestion and are suitable for infants with lactose sensitivity. Additionally, Similac Pro-Total Comfort has 2’-FL HMO for immune support.
Similac Organic with A2 Milk is a milk-based formulation with A2 milk as the protein source. A2 milk comes from select cows that only produce A2 milk. It is certified USDA organic and like all Similac infant formulas, it is gentle and easy to digest. It contains lactose and the protein is not hydrolyzed.
Does my baby need anything else besides breast milk?
No, your baby shouldn’t need to eat anything else besides breast milk, unless recommended by your baby’s doctor. It is now recommended that all infants and children have a minimum daily intake of 400 IU of vitamin D beginning soon after birth. Ask your baby’s pediatrician about vitamin D supplements and when it’s appropriate to introduce complementary foods.
Why is breast milk or formula required for babies until at least 1 year old?
During the first year, your baby will grow and develop faster than at any other time of life. What you feed your baby during the first year supports that development. If you're not breastfeeding, iron-fortified formula is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
My baby spits up after formula feeding. Should I be worried?
That depends on how much and how often. Many babies spit up a small amount after they’ve been fed. If you are concerned, talk with your baby’s pediatrician about your concerns. If your baby repeatedly spits up or vomits most of a feeding, or if you notice blood in the spit-up or vomit, call your baby’s pediatrician immediately.
Is Similac covered by WIC (Women, Infants, and Children)?
It is up to each state to determine which products they will offer through their WIC program. You should check with your local WIC agency to understand which formulas are available in your area.
