They know what kind of formula is best for different babies. We had to switch formula to find one that helps with my LO's constipation, and our doctor was able to guide us to one that's thinner and easier on the belly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question#post-44696 Sun, 01 Jan 2012 15:17:17 +0000 pelikila 44696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It might be worth trying another formula to see if it makes a difference. When we weaned I just used Earth's Best since that was the brand of solids we'd been using and we hadn't had any issues with it. </p> <p>Could some of his poop be a result of more/increased solids and/or a possible reaction to them? Is he possibly teething? My son always gets looser stools when teething due to the amount of saliva he is swallowing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question#post-44645 Sun, 01 Jan 2012 11:52:55 +0000 chopsuey 44645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard great things about Baby's Only. My LO is breastfed, but once we wean I'll be giving her this (if I can get her to take a bottle or sippy cup!). They say it's only for toddlers, but it's only bc they promote nursing for LOs. Babies under the age of 1 can have it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question#post-44644 Sun, 01 Jan 2012 11:52:48 +0000 venice4504 44644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had other issues with the Similac (blue tub) Advanced and ours is now fed the Up &amp; Up (Target) Sensitive formula (pink label) and does really well on it. It's 1/2 the price of Similac but still made by them. I honestly can't rave more about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question#post-44642 Sun, 01 Jan 2012 11:45:37 +0000 mrstilly 44642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We switched to formula full time about a month ago at 8 months. He had been ebf until 7 months, but my supply couldn't keep up. We are using the regular Similac advanced in the blue tub. He didn't have any issues starting formula. A while, about the time he went on formula full time, he had his second ear infection and was on antibiotics. I thought his liquidy poop was due to the.antibiotics,.but he's been off them for 3 weeks now. we've been pushing solids and started him on probiotics. Prior his poop would just roll off the diaper (when he was on bm and formula and solids).</p> <p>Should I try switching formulas and if so, what should I try?</p> <p> I don't want to go spend money trying a bunch of different kinds, but Id love to have his poop back to normal. He's blowing out 1-2 diapers a day. sometimes they are more tar/pb like. </p>
