Introducing formula

2 replies

Hi, my daughter is 9 months. For the last month I've gradually been trying to introduce formula. She had been EFB. She's having aptamil but I'm now wondering if this is the right formula for her. When people have said a certain brand hasn't agreed with their baby what do they been by that? What were the symptoms?

I've noticed that since she's been having aptamil her eczema seems worse, she's more gassy, she's constantly got a runny nose (although this could be the time of year). She's waking up at night crying in what seems like discomfort (but this could be teething). I don't know if these are signs She has an intolerance to lactose, a milk allergy or simply aptamil isn't right for her and I should try another brand?

Breast milk has the same amount of lactose as cow milk so it won’t be lactose intolerance.

Our baby was very gassy and squirmy on cow & gate, it seemed quite frothy so probably that. Switched him to Hipp and been fine since. Worth trying a different one maybe, nothing to lose
