Hi! I'm a working mother with an active 17 month boy. He has been a challenge from day 1. He is allergic to milk and soy formulas and had colic from his first five months. What an experience! However, he's a happy and healthy boy - 34 inches tall and 29 lbs.
Tips for being frugal: Most baby formula companies have 1-800 numbers on the back of their formula cans. You can call and get coupons and/or join their baby clubs and receive proof-of purchase points for free promotional prizes and also receive informational newsletters. Some of the baby food companies I have called have included: Beechnut, Heinz, Gerber, and Earth's Best.
