Ok, so I got a sample of the "new look" Similac Advance w/ Iron in the mail, the one with the new blue label. It claims that there are less bubbles now when you mix it (it said it on a flyer). My dd is on Alimentum mainly because of the gas she got with the Similac Advance (she couldn't tolerate soy) and I was hoping now that she was older I could switch her back (asking the ped about it at her next appointment). I'm still not sure what formula I am going to switch her back to if I can, but the one reason we stopped with the Simlac ADvance was because of all the foam and bubbles. So I was just wondering if anyone has tried the new look stuff and does it really have less bubbles when you mix it? Mines just a sample so I might just open it up and see, but just thought I would see if anyone else tried it and what their thoughts where. Thank you!

Yes, I have used it! A HUGE Difference! It still foams at first right after you shake it, but a few seconds ( I say seconds) later the foam and bubbles are gone. In the hospital did you get the little 4oz. bottles that were already pre-mixed? They liquid stuff? After a few seconds that is what the new similac looks like. Big, Big difference. I would definately recommend it now!
