Formula Advice Needed

I had the same, changed to Nannycare and totally different within 2 weeks.
Kendamil is really good. It has no Palm oil and is not as thick as a lot of the other formulas.
My LB was on cow and gate and really suffered with tramp wind and constipation, it went like dark green playdoh and would scream. I changed him to HIP and he has been so much better. He’s been on it for two weeks now and been such a happier little baby 🤍 I hope you find one that helps your LB, it’s so horrible. I was told it can take 2 weeks to fully come out the system x
@Eleanor @Becky @Alisha @Denise just got my partner to buy Kendamil, Cow & Gate and HIPP therefore I have one to fall back on if the previous doesn't work. I will give those that are not used to the food bank
I was told cow & gate and aptamil have the same ingredients, I’m not sure how true that is but I would maybe try one if the other two first xx
@Natalie try to stick to the same one for as long as you can, can sometimes take a while to settle. Hope first one goes well 🤞🏾
Swapped Aptamil to Hipp also
Using cow and gate
@Eleanor @Becky @Alisha @Denise thank you so much for helping ladies, hopefully one will work for my little boy and he won't be in pain anymore
@Natalie be careful with trying new formulas quickly. Iv read there needs to be an adjustment period. I’d recommend reading into it before just doing it. There’s a reason there are feeding experts.
@Jess yeah I've read something similar to that too, this going to be a gradual process but at the end of the day, I need to find a formula that agrees with my son
We're on C&G after swapping from kendamil as thats quite rich - when your swapping you won't see a difference straight away it can take up to 2 weeks for a baby to get used to new milk, so he may be uncomfortable and constipated or have loose poo's for a good few days during the change x
We swapped from aptimil to HIPP for the same reasons, took our LG about 2 days to settle onto it but she’s 100x better now :)
