Good Starts baby formula is the best ever. I agree breast milk is the best and that was what I fed all of my children but when you wanna stop breast feeding or if like me didnt have a good breast pump to work with its nice to have a trustworthy formula to use and this is it. I fed this to my two children that would take a bottle and they loved it.   They never had any problems with constipation of stomach issues and i think its because nestle good start is so gentle.  When you mix this formula you will see a lot less bubbles in it than some other brands and it comes out of my babies clothes...

I originally started out on a different formula when my son was born and he had nothing but problems with gas and not being able to go. well when i switched to this formula right away i noticed a difference in his bowel movements and his crankiness due to gas. this formula has helped my baby out tremendously. its easy to mix and it doesnt foam up as much as the other ones do. and that leads to less gas and a very happy mom. i would reccomend this formula to any mother wanting to feed their baby formula.

I have been using this product since my daughter was born.  She was underweight due to being born prematurely, and drinking the Carnation Good Start has helped her to develop quite well and to catch up to babies that are her age.  Her doctor checkups have A number 1 and she hasn't even had so much as a cold.  I just wish this product were around when my boys were little so they could have had a great start like she has.

Nestle Good Start makes their infant formulas with what they call "comfort proteins" that are a smaller particle and easier to digest. I notice less gas and spitting up than with other formulas.  Josephine will not tolerate anything less than boiling with this formula, unlike the enfamil.

The company is very generous with coupons, They do not participate in the WIC program, and you can choose soy or milk based. There is not a milder formula out there. This is her favorite infant formula, along with KMart's Little Ones.

Best one Ive tried yet!

I have three children and I would say that this formula is by far the best that I have used. My newborn seems so much more alert than my last baby! He does throw up often, but I think he is just one of those babies who do that!

 Before I brought my daughter home from the hospital, we were having trouble keeping formula on her stomache, but once we got home and started using the Carnation Good Start Supreme DHA & ARA my little one was able drink this formula without any problems. The formula was gentle enough for her stomache to handle it.

Good Start Supreme is better than I thought it would be. We started out on Infamil at the hospital and and they gave us enough to last a few weeks at home. Infamil is sooo expensive and with me losing my job a few days prior to having my baby I was strapped for cash so we switched to Good Start Supreme with DHA. I was worried at first about changing his formula because he acted like he didn't like it. I guess he was just use to the other formula because after the first few bottles he seems to love it. I would recommend this formula to all of the mothers out there who are wondering which type of... read full review »

My youngest who is 5 months old is on Carnation Good Start Supreme DHA & ARA, which I receive through the WIC program. I have a good feeling about it because if it is approved by WIC then it must be at the top of the list because so many families use it.

My two oldest were on Similac Advance and I was skeptical of trying something new because I enjoyed Similac and was used to it. So far, my baby is doing great with it including digestion and gas and I enjoy using it. Plus it is always in stock on the stores I choose. The stains also come out of clothes more than some of the other brands and don't...

what more could you ask for

i am a mother of two and both me and my husband have full time jobs and need the money just to keep afloat. so with my secound daughter i had to return to work within the following week because the girl who was covering me quit. i was trying to breast feed her and wound up drying up with in the first week, so along with my first daughter i kept them both on the nestle good start beacuse that is the nest best thing if you are not breast feeding, it has everything that your baby needs and it is what the hospitals all use beacuse it is the best.....
