We have made the decision to move to the Comfort as Rebecca is still suffering from wind in the evenings and can go 3-4 days without a dirty nappy. However we still have almost a full tub of the normal Aptamil left. Should it be ok if I still give her the normal in the morning and from afternoon onwards give her the Comfort or should we just write off the standard Aptamil and move over to the Comfort all the time?
We started her on the Comfort last night and I gave her the Comfort for her first bottle today.
 
Hello not sure about using both but just wanted to share our experience of changing to aptamil comfort, we changed over on Sunday as Lucy was getting bad wind especially in the evenings.

When we changed I noticed she was sucking like mad but when we checked the vlume of milk in the bottle just wasnt going down, I finally realised this morning that the formula is so much thicker she was struggling to get it through the teat and tiring herself out, she was only managing to get 20ml at each attempt to feed.

I changed to level 2 teat this morning (dr browns bottles) and we had a great feed back to normal amounts 100 - 120ml

Good luck with the change.
 
I wouldn't use both, when I changed over my LO to a comfort milk I had to waste the old formula. Yeah you will need size 2 or variflow teats as bagpuss said xx
 
I use the aptamil comfort milk, occasionally i use the cartons when i go out which are aptamil 1, and it never effects my LO.
 
tbh i would just chuck the other stuff as you are changing the milk for a reason so might not be best to keep giving her the older stuff - hope the comfort is better on her tum hun x
 
thanks all, changed her over to Comfort on Mon night and alls well so far, we had Variflow teats for her already so using size 3 on that she is doing well and getting it ok...a lot less wind after feeding but touch wood she seems a lot better and has a dirty nappy daily so far (was going 3-4 days at a time without one!)
