Trusted Milk Brands in the Philippines for Babies
All mothers want only the best for their babies; from clothes they wear, toys they play with to the milk brand that’s safe and nutritious for them. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months and continued breastfeeding for as long as possible; unfortunately, breastfeeding may not be possible for all women. For many, the decision to breastfeed or formula feed is based on their comfort level, lifestyle, and specific medical situations.
For mothers who are unable to breastfeed or who decide not to, infant formula is a healthy alternative. Growing up milks are formulated to meet nutrition needs of healthy young children older than 1 year and should not be fed to infants. Here’s a list of nourishing and safe infant formula brands that you can consider for your baby’s daily nutritious supplement. Most of these milk brands can be found in most leading supermarkets, drugstores, and groceries nationwide.

Hi momshies… I also have 11 months old baby, dati s26 gold din siya ok naman ang stool nya kaso hindi siya masyadong chubby but the weight is just normal for his age, then habang lumalaki na si baby for us yung milk is a bit pricey na din. Since i quit my job to become a full time mom, so I asked my baby pedia she recommend bonamil so am still using it until now, pansin ko lang hindi pa din nagiging chubby si baby and im still using it until now na 11 months na siya planning to switch na since malapit na siyang mag 1 year old ld. Yung mga nababasa ko regarding sa pag nag switch ng milk eh its either nag constipate or watery ang poop i think its normal kasi mag a adjust pa ang tummy ni baby. Kailangan muna observed huwag basta basta mag palit. And one thing pq pala. Pag nag introduced na ng food normal talaga si baby mag constipate or watery just watch out sa mga pinapakan dahil may impact talaga lahat kay baby
