Brief Answer:
Enfamil A plus contains both DHA/ARA and prebiotic
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for asking on this platform
In XXXXXXX Enfamil A+ contains DHA, ARA(Arachidonic acid) and galactosaccharides(prebiotic).
Nan Pro 1 contains prebiotic only and does not has DHA/ARA.
In my personal experience I have seen that most of the babies tolerate both of these very well. Tolerance may vary as per individual.
As baby has crossed 37 weeks/2.5 kgs preterm formula like pregnancy is no more needed.
Breast feed is the best feed for baby. But if you find that breast feed is not adequate you may give any of these as per your preference.
I hope this helps.
Please let me know if you have any more questions.

does both enfamil a+ stage 1 and nan pro 1 contains probiotics?
Brief Answer:
Enfamil contains prebiotic that is galactosaccharides
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for follow up
Enfamil A+ contains galactosaccharides that is a prebiotic while Nan Pro contains bifidobacterium a probiotic.
The difference between prebiotic and probiotic is that probiotic is gut flora while prebiotic helps in growth of probiotic(gut flora).
So Enfamil also helps in maintaining healthy gut flora.
Enfamil A+ contains added DHA and ARA.
In Nan Excella Pro there is probiotic with DHA and ARA.
You can try any of these.
