Interesting replies… I guess every baby is different. Anyway, does anyone know what causes the prices of formula milk to go up & down?


Just checked the price of Gain 1Q (1 year & up) and it’s suddenly gone up by $2 for the 1.8kg can :!: Just cant believe it!

Actually, my DD1 was underweight when she was little and took Pediasure at the recommendation of her paediatrician. I find that it didn't really help her gain weight and until now, she’s still as thin as ever. :roll:

Hi Sunflower, I know what you mean, my DD2 has been tiny since birth and even after 2 years of Pediasure still so tiny. Don't know where did all the 'good stuff' go to??

I decided that we will bite the bullet and stick to it... at the back of our minds, maybe if not for pediasure, could even be even thinner if that is possible?!!

I had the same experience too.
Are you aware that some clinics sell pediasure ( 400ml) by the carton (24 cans). This will work out to be cheaper than NTUC. You can trying asking your paediatrician.

Do u mean 400g? Clinics normally sell around same price as NTUC, it just that you get like 2 cans free with a carton purchased. Which worked out to be cheaper. BTW, Pedisaure prices increased again. the 1.8kg (purple top) used to be $59.75 is now $62.50.

Hi evelynseet, my boy is on goat milk and he is not fat either. He is average weight around 11.5kg for 22 months. And DH is always complaining why he is so skinny and blames me for restricting his diet - he has some allergy and cos i am against feeding carbonated drinks and candies etc to DS. Anyway my sis told me kids on goat milk tend to be slimmer. For me as long as DS is healthy i am happy. you may consider to include fresh milk for your kids ?

My boy is 6 yrs old. he has been on soy formula for the past 4 yrs. I have switched him to milk formula last yr. He is still so skinny. So doesn't mean milk formula can put on weight. I have given him Fresh milk in the morning and bedtime Enfakid. so far ok
My girl is coming 22 months. She is on Nan Pro 3. So far ok. Weight average around 11kg. I think all formula are the same. It all depends on their reaction. Since is your first time trying, why don't you try the cheapest first and see how they react.

My son is taking Pediasure, the taste is quite similar to Gain IQ. In fact my son was taking Gain IQ before he switched to Pediasure and has no problems in the switch.
