hi there.

I have come to doha with my 2 month old baby. I am breast feeding, but for some reasons i need to switch to formula for a short period, can anyone tell me where they sell cow and gate milk in doha IF they have any at all? i have searched family food centre and most pharmacies but no luck. any mums who use cow and gate baby stuff? i used it in london for my son and i think its a great brand of milk for babies.

thanks in advance

Please stop hijacking the thread. Especially Rizks, if you cant help appreciate if you leave the thread alone. It is very irritating to read a thread always crowded with your useless posts.

If you want to write a useless post and pile up for points do make your own thread

Thank you.

Mega Mart is in the Center shopping center. It is the one off the Ramada Signal in the same place as the KFC.

Alot of people buy this stuff up pretty quick, and I can imagine it will not be cheap but well worth it. If they dont have it you can also ask them if they can bring it. If you dont have any luck sometimes GIant Stores in Hyatt Plaza will also bring things on request.

Good luck :)

You can find Cow & Gate at Mega Mart in the Center. There was some there this morning wehen I was shopping but you better hurry as it goes pretty quick.

If after a year a baby is getting sick and diareha from cows milk there may be a lactose issue. I dont get people who say cows milk makes their kid sick but they are ok on yogurts and cheeses.

All ants in the colony are female, the only male ants are the flying ones called "drones"

Cow & Gate started in 1771 as a small grocery shop in Guildford at Number 20 High Street, owned by the Gates family. In 1887, the two brothers Charles and Leonard Gates decided to expand into the dairy trade, and opened up a new business called The West Surrey Central Dairy. To ensure supplies of the best quality milk, they built their own creameries in the West of England, and also in Ireland, where Cow & Gate infant formula milks are still produced today. Their best-selling product was fresh cream. This was sold in distinctive little brown jugs, with a label showing a cow looking through a gate. Among their customers were members of the Royal family, including Queen Victoria, the Prince of Wales, and the Duke of York. The label became famous, and it soon became known as 'Cow & Gate'.

Now you know!

Hi there, we used to use C&G for our little one, then we had to switch to Aptamil out here due to the short supplies of C&G (and price). Aptamil is the same as C&G, same ingredients, different packaging but made by the same company. Failing that they sell C&G in Megamark at a ridiculously high price.

Not seen it here...You get other brands like Promil and Naan etc.. which can be given to infants…check with your pediatrician...she/he will suggest which is good for your baby.

Ok I dont know anything about babies and what they eat etc, but I thought there was special formula that you can use as a substitute for breast milk, rather than the milk adults drink???

It is highly unadvisable to give a 2 month old cow's milk. It is very hard for them to digest. As you say it is to be for a short time---have you considered pumping your breast milk and saving the extra. Use the saved milk while you are away from your baby (or whatever the reason you are needing to stop breastfeeding temporarily) and then you can resume breastfeeding when you are back. It is by far the best solution.

I switched one of my children to cow's milk at 13 months old and they got terribly sick. I was changing diapers continuously for weeks if you know what I mean.
