switching to comfort milk?

Has anyone done this? My baby is on aptimil 1 but I'm seriously considering changing. He's very gassy and only has a pooh nappy every 5 das or so. My health visitor keeps telling me not to but he seems uncomfortable!

We changed to cow & gate comfort as I was worried our LO was constipated and was really hard to wind. She was only ever going every two days and now it's at least twice a day and its more 'wet'.

Is the gas easy to get up?

No it's really hard to wind him and he's so gassy and I think that's what's keeping him up at night

Have you thought about trying gripe water or infacol?

Gripe water works wonders for us and getting our LO's wind up a bit easier.

I've tried both those they seem to help a tiny bit for a day or two then he's back to drawing his legs up at night with the cramps. He was on Colief for a while but it stopped working too so I stopped that too.

I really think I should take the plunge and switch to comfort milk.

I'd give it a go just be mindful it took around a week for us to see a difference but she seems better on it.
