Baby formula causing issues?

Hello,

Looking for a bit of advice from anyone who has changed their babies formula and whether it helped with any issues? Our 5 month old has been on Kendamil since she was born and has always been fine however since her last set of vaccines (not sure if this is just a coincidence) she's gone from doing around 2-3 poos a day to sometimes 10 recently. It's now been a good few weeks with no change so we're wondering if she's somehow developed an intolerance to her milk? She seems fine otherwise, happy and no apparent sore tummy etc however the poo bums are waking her up at night which is also disrupting her sleep.

I'm worried changing her formula might cause more issues but not sure what else to try...it feels like we're constantly changing her and I'm worried she'll develop a sore bum with it all too. I've been in touch with our Health Visitor and we have a doctor's appointment to check nothing else is going on.

Kendalmil formula has whole milk fats other formulas are usually a vegetable oil blend but you say since birth the same milk id be surprised… to add the rotavirus vaccine can use loose stools, if she isn’t showing any other symptoms when feeding. Fingers crossed GP tries something other “than there usual here’s some dairy free milk”. So many baby’s unnecessarily put on it

Thank you. Weirdly after posting yesterday morning she has had a full day of normal poos and none during the night. Fingers crossed things are settling down and we don't need to change her milk 🤞
