I was breastfeeding and supplementing with enfamil lipil the yellow one and she was very gassy and fussy hardly ever sleeping she didn't want to get held or put down screaming the whole entire time. So I just switched her two days ago to the enfamil gentlease lipil the purple can and putting myliconn in every other bottle and stopped breast feeding because she wasn't doing good at all it probably was the milk my dr. said this formula has less milk and now she sleeps so much better isn't all gassy and fussy anymore

Babies will have some gas no matter what you feed them. But from my own experience with my daughter,she had noticeably less stomach and bowel problems when she was strictly breastfed. So,if that is your concern-then skip the formula if at all possible.
