I swapped ds from his thick Enfamil formula to the second stage Aptimil yesterday.
Today he's had 3 really runny nappies and I mean like water and smelling a bit nasty.

Is this more likely to be the change in formula and it will settle or just coincidence and could be a bug?
He seems fine otherwise, drinking and eating.

formula change sounds likely
why did you swap him?

Ahh right. [sigh of relief]

Well he's 6 months now, doing a bit of BLW but starting to demand more feeds and he has been waking in the night for the last 2 months.

I'd be tempted to go back to the Enfamil and just feed more if he asks for it (I know it's a pain though) - second-stage formula isn't nutritionally any richer than first-stage, it's just harder to digest...

I didnt know that MrsB, so thank you.
It was just nice to know that he could have normal formula without vomiting it all back up.
