    happy, while i understand and sympathise with your situation, i don't know why you didn't switch to an easier to obtain formula?

    my kids always took which ever formula was on sale (except stuff from china). they never had a problem. of course, we tried to limit the number of different kinds we tried, but they really didn't have a problem with trying out a different type.

    i hope you have found something a little easier to obtain for your little one now.

    Now, don't I feel silly. In fairness to me I did try my local places for infacol and got no joy... and it was early baby days...

    Lesson learned, should've posted on Geobaby and asked all you guys! :-)

    LisainHK, if only there was Dragons Den, Hong Kong, not sure they'd have me with my mother-brain though.... ;-)

    Just curious which brand you are using that is only at B2B?

    totally agree with the others - if this formula brand is so hard to come by, just switch brands to one more readily available! no harm at all in that. sounds like it would save you a lot of grief.

    BabyHappy, if you have your heart set on a particular brand for your baby- now you know that you need to reserve it when the next shipment comes and ask them to call you. Keep x amount of boxes in the house etc. I was lucky that I learnt my lesson while I was still breastfeeding and when wanted to introduce formula- they did not have stock for a week. B2B is just very disorganized- they keep running out of all kinds of stuff- it is very annoying. I haven't quite understood why are they the only "all in one" baby store in town- why they don't have more competition?
