Can I change again?

[BeckyBoo]

Constipated on SMA Gold but she was contented
Diarreah on Cow and Gate and unsettled and windy

Can I change her again or am I just going to upset her stomach?

She's been on Cow and Gate a week and a half.

I was thinking Aptamils easy digest.

How about trying her just on Aptamil number 1? All the easy digest and comfort and hungry baby formulas could be upsetting her more than the actual standard formulas. Aptamil is very easy on the stomach anyway so maybe try her on that for a good few days to give everything a chance to settle after the switch and then if neccessary try easy digest. It can put a lot of extra stress on a baby's tummy especially one as young as Kalea.

Well I got to try something, she just isnt settling on any formulas and I'm running out. But I've not heard anything bad about aptamil, seems alot of babies get constimated on SMA.

Yeah Bella got constipated on C&G but on aptamil she poo's like a BF baby. Would definitely just try the normal first then you've got easy digest as a back up.

i put niamh on aptimal cos she would finish a bottle on SMA and it made her ill

Within 2 days back to normal and is having 6oz feeds times a day and finishing them its fab stuff she loves it

give it a go

If there is anyone on aptimil could you please look at the label for me and tell me how much lactose it says pleaseeeeeeeeeeee xxxxx

I've changed the formula a few times. What I have him on now seems to have helped with the constipation and gas.

I buy the liquid concentrate and for night time I use the ready-to-feed formula - Enfamil.

Throughout the day, I use the concentrated formula - Infamil Soy Based.

He seems to be doing much better.

I used aptimil - its the closest formula to breastmilk so is easier on the stomach than most formula and you tend to find they poo like a breastfed baby

I've left her on cow and gate and her poo seems to of thickened up, but I still fancy she doesn't settle on it aswell as SMA, maybe my imagination!!!!

just had a crisis in boots at 5.15pm they didnt have tabs' milk! argh! but they looked out the back and had some PHEW.......but in the meantime i did spot....aptimil-comfortable digestion so would get that for tabs if they hadn't got cow and gate. Had nice low lactose too 2.9 or something.
Tabs has been constipated last 2 days but i put that down to the infacol as i started using it instead of the gripe water for a week so now back to the gripe water.

Infacol gave my mates babies awful diarreah. So I got woodwards for Kalea lol.
