So is this same ingredients in a toddler formula, or is it the same as infant formula, but marketed as toddler? My son is a toddler, I want a toddler formula for him.

As other reviewers have noted (and it's my understanding too), Baby's Only calls this a "toddler formula" because they want to advocate for breastfeeding for the first year (which I find a little insulting since I planned and tried desperately to breastfeed but couldn't, but that's another story...). Since they call it "toddler formula" it must be fine for toddlers. If it weren't, they'd be guilty of false advertising.

When you call them, they clearly state that they promote breast feeding, hence the 12 mos+ suggestion. However, nutritionally, it is the same as any other formula on the market- it simply has superior ingredients and processing. You cannot go wrong with the brand. We absolutely loved it. I had to supplement 2-4 oz at birth for my son and continued using it until he was 18 mos. I really believe this stuff is safer than nearly any organic milk we can buy at the store since the quality of processing varies so much in the dairy industry.

Company says yes, my pediatric nutritionist says no! Some of the ingredients, egg being one specifically, is not suited for infants. We did give this to our second child after breast feeding for 7 months and he did fine. We liked it was rice not corn based and the ingredient list seemed to be far more nutritious than anything else on the market. Company assured me, yes for infants just labeled for toddlers to promote breast feeding for the first 12 months.Come to introducing it to our 3rd and severely constipated...it was TERRIBLE.

I had been mixing this in with pureed or mashed food for my 8 month old baby for a couple of months before I read that only liquids were recommended for mixing. I just called the company and a customer rep told me that it was no problem to mix in with food. Obviously if your baby is not eating food yet this doesn't help, but thought I'd put it out there. I also did not have any issues mixing it with breast milk when he was younger.

I use it for my toddler. I also found little difference in ingredients, and she's had no adverse reactions to it.

I don't see why not, breast milk and formula are fairly similar (of course breast milk is best)

I have ThinkBaby and Thinksport for Kids sitting in front of me. I see no differences in anything except the label for kids and the name. The ingredients are the same. Both say 50+ sunscreen. They are my favorite sunscreen! Rub in easy and they protect wonderfully!

Hi Abbie, I did a lot of research before I decided to use Baby's Only toddler formula. I wondered the same thing, because I was looking to switch my daughter at 4 months as well. I read on many different websites, including their own. that they label their formula "toddler formula" because as a company they feel that the best milk for babies is breast milk. Here is a quote from their website: "Breast milk is the best organic choice. Baby's Only Organic is labeled a toddler formula to promote breast milk as the best first option. Following breast milk, parents can continue providing organic nutrition using Baby's Only Organic formula. For a baby less than 12-months, use as directed by a healthcare professional. "

Hello, Thank you for your interest in our shampoo. We don't have samples readily available for this product, but what most people do is try the smaller sized bottle in the 8oz baby shampoo which is the same safe formula as the adult shampoo, and if they like it, then they order the larger 16oz size. You can see the smaller baby shampoo size here in our Amazon store link

I believe this could be a new formula. It was in the newer designed bottle, not the one old style pictured. But it doesn't say anything on the bottle if the formula had changed.

possibly due to the fact that this supplementation formula is intended to use sparingly and thus result in your baby craving larger amounts of breastmilk which is healthier. I didn't use this formula until my daughter was 6 months old, but I didn't worry about her not getting enough of the supplementation milk as she was almost off the charts with her weight. If your going to supplement more than a few times a day I would use something else just to make sure your baby is getting enough...especially if your LO is not on solid food yet:)

They say toddlers only because they believe breastfeeding the first year. The formula is fine for young babies and still meets their nutritional needs. Our ped told us it's fine to use. Our baby is 8 weeks old.

I know this is not considered an infant formula. It is designed for 1+. I would call nestle and ask if it does not appear on the can as they have a few different brands of nido. It's sold at Walmart in the area that has salsa and refried beans where we shop.

As far as I can tell the formula is the same as always. A little tip though. You can buy this at The Dollar Tree (not Family Dollar or Dollar General) for, imagine $1. I found this out recently. It's the refill bottles so you need to keep sprayer on hand.

Hi Haley, Depending upon the age of your toddler, I would spray it in my mouth to show her that it's ok. And then, ask her if she would like to try it. If she says yes, then I would try one gentle spray. If she is too young or says no, I would spray it on a spoon and have her take it that way. In either case, I would tell her to swish it around in her mouth for 10-20 seconds as it is most effective when absorbed in the mouth, rather than by swallowing it.
