The mixture for the newborn is selected taking into accountrecommendations of doctorsPhoto: social networks1. The starting point for the search for the mixture should be the recommendations of the doctor (pediatrician, neonatologist). For example, for premature babies, each brand produces its own line. For other characteristics of the health of the baby, the doctor may also recommend certain types of mixtures. He will provide you with a list of brands, from which you can find the right one for your wallet and baby taste. Here at this stage it is already possible to go to the Internet - to study the rating of mixtures for a newborn and reviews of other young mothers. Look for newborn mixes by brand in ratings and reviews. Both negative and positive opinions about the same brand will help you to get an objective picture of it. In this case, separate the grain from the chaff. For example, reviews like “the volume of a jar is small” or “the mixture dissolves and crumples for a long time” should not be decisive for you. After all, if the child begins to eat this mixture with pleasure, you can suffer such inconvenience!

Some jars may be labeled "no palm oil". But reviews of young mothers and specialists tend to believe that this is nothing more than a marketing ploy. Because infant formula uses much higher quality palm oil than cheap instant noodles or chips. And palm oil from infant formula contains the nutrients necessary for a growing body. After you and your baby have decided on your preferences, a few "spare brands" may come in handy in the future. The fact is that, firstly, with age, the baby can change his food preferences and abandon the already chosen brand of mixture. Secondly, do not panic if the baby is growing, and the amount of the mixture he eats does not increase: the growing body must require more. If it doesn't, it might be time to try a different mixture.
