Angela,
You are right about the AR formula thickening in the babies tummy when
mixing with the stomach acids. I went and read it on the can after you said
that. But then I started thinking something was askew, as I was just sure
that the milk I had mixed for someone looked like a milkshake, rather than
just the normal liquid consistancy. The baby could not suck it out with the
normal NB nipple. So, I gave the ol' formula company a call and asked
them. She said that it is thicker than regular formula, but should flow
thru a regular bottle nipple. Then it thickens even more once in the tummy.
Very enlightening. Also, glad to hear I wasnt just imagining things.
;-)
Thanks for the gentle nudge to learn more!
