Types of Sensitive Baby Formulas
1. Comfort Formula
Comfort formulas use partially hydrolyzed proteins, which are often easier to digest and may help reduce discomfort for some babies.

2. Goat Milk Formula
Goat milk naturally has a different fat and protein structure than cow milk, which some parents find gentler on sensitive stomachs โ though it is not a treatment for a diagnosed cow's milk protein allergy.
3. Anti-Reflux Formula
These formulas are thicker and designed to help reduce reflux and spit-up.
