Milk Powder Recommendations?

Post by fellylim » Mon Jun 11, 2018 3:13 pm

I've read that many parents nowadays opt to buy milk powder online - if you've tried this, do let me know how you found the experience (quality of milk powder, price, timely delivery, online platforms used etc.) My son is due to turn 6 months old soon, and will be switching to milk formula, so I'm keen to find out.

Some of my friends recommended me to try Qoo10, so I did some research and found this article: https://techielobang.com/blog/2018/05/2 ... singapore/ The brands listed in the article look legitimate and the Qoo10 website seems informative and well-patronized, but I'm just trying to get as many opinions as I can about this before making a decision. Much appreciated! :)

I used Similac (very foamy and sweet) and Mamil (quite sweet) for my kids.

Have you tried Einmilk from NTUC? They are relatively cheaper than other brands and you can probably try a small tin of 900 g to see if your baby likes it.

Thanks for the recommendations! :) I'll have a go at Similac then, since it ranks #no. 3 on the Qoo10 site too. I've heard great things about Einmilk as well - have you tried getting it online before (other than at NTUC?)

felly: nope, have not used Einmilk as my kids have been weaned off formula milk. I thought it seems a great alternative as the price's lower than most brands. I think Einmilk is only sold on NTUC? As they were the ones who brought this brand in, not sure if it's sold elsewhere..

Thanks for the advice! Just FYI, i managed to find it on Redmart (https://redmart.com/baby/baby-formula/f ... e-2/trbaby) and Qoo10 (https://www.qoo10.sg/item/EINMILK-EINMI ... no=1305330) too :)

Great...good that they are more widely available. Let me know if your baby likes it! :D
