Reasons for choosing a particular brand of formula

What influenced your choice of formula *brand* (similac, enfamil, target, nestle, etc)? Multiple choice

This is awful, but the literature from the clinic and the hospital had coupons for the 2 "big name" formulas (Enfamil and Similac). Enfamil's coupons came in the form of "checks" -- the "checks" you can use at Sam's Club (unlike regular coupons). And Enfamil mailed new "checks" every month for up to $5.00. So between saving $ buying in quantity at Sam's and the "checks" it was SIGNIFIGANTLY cheaper to buy that brand. Hunter liked it so....

We started off with that the hospital sent home (enfamil) . Meg did well on it for a few months and then had horrible bouts of constipation (sorry, TMI...lol!) A friend reccomended Nestle Good Start and it was wonderful. It was really good for Meghan's belly
