Green poo and sickness

I really don’t want to sound like I’m slating Kendamil by this post I just want some advice. My baby was EBF up until 16weeks and then we were told to introduce formula due to slow weight gain, I decided to try Kendamil due to good reviews. In herself she was so much happier, strangely less gassy but she was had really large green frothy poos and was being sick for hours after each feed. After 3 weeks of this the HV said this is not just her body getting used to it but a CMPA. I know I’m not medical but I just don’t feel like it is an allergy, I’ve seen a lot on social media about Kendamil recently changing (I don’t know too much about this) I’d love to know if anyone has had a similar issue with the poos and sickness on Kendamil.

My baby didn't do well on it either . Green or very dark poos , or constipation ... i switched to hipp organic and she is was more regular with yellow poop.

@Nicola thats reassuring to hear, as I said I’m not medical so obviously drs know more than me but I really don’t feel like it’s an allergy and could be more like the formula. My baby would seem like she was constipated but was pooing but as I said green and frothy and also had specks of powder in it🙈

Kendamil is known to cause green poo as it uses whole milk and it is perfectly normal. However the froth and sickness isn’t. My lo changed on to the new recipe and it made him so poorly. They’ve changed the way they dry out the formula as it’s manufactured in another country. It caused vomiting and constipation in my lo. I changed to kendamil organic and he’s back to his usual self☺️

@Louise this is what I thought, I’d read that Kendamil causes green poos and also the new recipe caused sickness but the health visitor and GP have gone straight down the CMPA route and changed her into Nutramigen. This has caused her more sickness than ever and her poos are still green🙈

@Sophie was baby ever on the original kendamil before the change? It can take a while for a baby to get used to a new formula so it could be why nutramigen is making her a little poorly x

@Louise no she was never on the original.. we’re only on Nutramigen for 2 weeks as a trial and that doesn’t seem long enough for her body to get use to it to know if she has an allergy or not
