Constipated

Hi all

New to this so hopefully I'm doing this all correct!

I have recently changed my 6 week old onto aptamil anti reflux formula from aptamil 1st. It's caused my baby poop to hard balls (tmi sorry). Will this ware off eventually when his body gets used to it? Does anyone have advice for how to help his poop go back to normal and keep it that way.
The milk has helped a lot with the reflux but now this. He has been on it for nearly a week now.

Any help appreciated

Has any one also tried mixing same brand formula so for example 3 scoop anti reflux and 1 normal feed to help them go?

Tasha, this might be something to contact the formula's own helpline about. There will be a number on the packaging. I am pretty sure they will advise against mixing the different types in the same bottle.

You could try giving warm boiled water as an aside drink

Thanks both, tried water didn't seem to improve. I contacted them this afternoon and they did advise against it however I tried it as per posts I've seen before and it's gone softer and not screaming as much when going. So it looks to have worked
