Me again…I am full of questions lately.

I’ve done a lot of reading and have 2 neocate questions (we start it on Monday):

1. is the only reason to switch them slowly from what they are to neocate because of the taste (i want jacob off this soy as fast as possible!)?

2. do most people automatically start the neocate with thickener, or do you wait and see, and then add it if necessary?

1) yes it is recommended to switch very slowly.
2) i used rice right away because neocate is soooo thin and my son choke on normal formulas as it was so i knew he needed it thickened. or i have some simply thick samples if you are interested.

The main reason for switching slowly is the taste. Several people have posted in the past that they switched “cold turkey”.

babies under 3 months have the most success in regards to accepting the taste. our ped said that babies older than this have sort of established their taste buds and may reject it..
