Perrigo Nutritionals Store Brand Infant Formula – Review & Giveaway - Expires 2/26/12



With so many choices out there for Infant Formula - it can be very daunting to choose the right one for you and your baby. As a new parent, the most surprising part was to see how expensive infant formula really is! Most Name Brand formulas were twice as much as the Store Brand version!

During my recent trips to various stores - I have compared many of the Name Brand Infant Formulas side by side with the related Store Brand and noticed that they are very similar. And after learning that All infant formula's must adhere to the same Nutritional Standards set out by the FDA, this made me feel much better! More Nutrition Fact information can be found here.

While I am breastfeeding my Infant at this time, I will be returning to work in a couple days and I want to have some Formula available at my house and at my baby sitters house, in case of Emergency. I personally will have Perrigo's products on hand - for these situations, due to the reasonable price of the Store Brand infant formula.

I'm happy that I can share Perrigo with you today, along with my own personal experiences. Please review the Perrigo information below and follow the link for more information about the company. Also - head down to the bottom of the post, to enter my giveaway to enter a Prize Pack of your own from Perrigo and Myblogspark.
