Help!! Change Formula? Unsettled baby!! Lactose free?

[alio]

Hi,
Please help!!

Finlay has been on Aptamil Hungry Baby for about 2 weeks (he's 4 weeks old). It was ok at first, but now he is so unsettled and seems uncomfortable. He doesn't go longer than 2.5 - 3 hours without feeds and he doesn;t sleep properly in between. He's awake all the time practically. Just 30 min / an hour here and there and then he wakes up upset.

He has the most horrendous smellling diarrhoea-y poos!!

I'm going to try a different formula tomorrow but wondered does it sound like he's lactose intolerant??

Thanks ladies.

I was just going through the same thing! Jasmine was like that and her poop was green and watery and really smelly... She was only eating like 2oz at once and started gagging and stuff when I fed her.

So we are trying a soy formula right now.... I just started it on Friday and the last couple days have been hell, but she is finally starting to settle... so I am hoping this will work...

Good luck!

The hungry baby formulas can make babies worse if they are just going through a growth spurt and wanting more liquid when sometimes it feels like they dont get enough if that makes sense.
The cow and gate comfort 1/first formula is a thicker feed without being a hungry baby type and it has oh oh oh oh oh so less lactose in it xxxx check out the side of the boxes when you shops
