Follow on Milk...will it cause constipation?

[LaDY]

Will follow on milk cause constipation if you are changing to 6months plus (as originally i was using birth onwards) or should it not impact the bowel movements due to the follow on milk baing the same brand?

My HV told me that if baby is having a varied diet then baby dont need follow on milk , as it as added iron if your bubbs as enough iron in there diet yes it will cause constipation hope this helps xxx

Shows how some HV's are different then other Mine told me that once bub is eating solids they will decrease the amount of milk they will take in a day ..as the regular formula dose not have EXTRA vits in them they can lack some until they actually eat 3 meals a day on there own ..

Hence why I got mine on the stage 2 follow on , so I would not worry about him missing out on anything ..he still dosent eat 3 FULL meals a day so I feel better knowing he has his milk at least ..

An mine didnt cause any constipation as its the same brand as his other one theres not much diff , only vits and iron and extra calcium..but each baby is diff
