What Is The Difference Between Toddler Formula And Baby Formula?

9 October 2009 4 Responses

A Parent asks, I have switched my 4 month old Baby Boy to Baby’s Only Dairy Toddler Formula because it seems to be the most organic formula out there, and because I have compared it’s ingredients to other infant formulas and it seems to be equal. Does anyone know any medical facts or information about this?

    No, I think they are quite similar. Baby’s Only is an “organic” formula, which mostly markets itself as “toddler” because the company does in fact believe, as do medical experts, that breast milk is far and away the most healthy thing to feed an infant. Infants should be getting breast milk, not formula. At least, that is what I have heard about the company.
    Otherwise, I would just wonder if it contains DHA/ARA and iron supplementation. There are no other differences.

    Agreed that toddler formula is a rip-off. Toddlers don’t need formula.
    I’m sure it’s not any different from “baby” formula, especially if you checked the ingredients and they’re equal. Really, formula is formula.

    We were just comparing formula, only difference was that there was more calcium in the new born edition. Check w/ your m.d.

    Toddler formula is basically a rip off.
    I’d check with your pedi to make sure it doesn’t have something (or too much of something) for your babe.
