Brief Answer:
I won't suggest you to give both simultaneously

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I won't suggest you to give formula feed of two brands simultaneously.
As I remember your previous query was regarding the probiotic and DHA/ARA content in Enfamil A + and Nan Pro 1.
If you want to give probiotic along with DHA and ARA you may give Nan Excella Pro as it contains all these.
Otherwise you may give Enfamil A+ which has prebiotic(works same as probiotic) with DHA and ARA.
The reason behind not giving two different formula is that baby might be intolerant to any of them and if you give them simultaneously it is difficult to find the one with whom the baby is intolerant.
Also baby may not like changing feeds frequently.
So my suggestion will be to give any one as these as per your choice.

Regards
