Someone asked me the other day how old my girls are and I had to giggle. For 5 weeks out of the year I have two kids the same age. Yep, I had them really close together! Thank goodness I was able to nurse the youngest or I would have spent a ton on formula. Nicole on the other hand had to switch to formula at 3 months old.

When she was 3 months old she ended up in the hospital with RSV for a week. I was forced to stop nursing her during that time since she could only get IVs. Before she left the hospital they had started giving her bottles and she refused to ever nurse again. I was very sad to have lost that closeness with her.

I was very thankful that there were store brands for formula. The FDA regulates formula and makes sure that all formulas provide the needed nutrition for infants so the savings is worth it.

Many families for one reason or another are not able to nurse their children. Formula can be a huge expense at a time when money is already tight from having a new baby. Walmart's store brand formula, Parent's Choice is now on sale. You can buy two cans for just $10!
