Formula which is better??

Question

My LO is breastfed with formula suppliments shes been gassy and hasn't had a bowel movement in over 24hrs we're currently using the similac but I was wondering if the emfamil is better

Answer

Breastfed babies don't poop every day 
Nor do formula fed babies 
And babies being gassy and farting a lot is good! Better than not being able to fart lol

Answer

But we found that Similac for discomfort is really good and has helped my baby

Answer

For us similac sensitive is sooo much better. We had him on gentlease and his gas got 100x worse. He couldn't Fart/burp and his poops were like clay. We are 3 days in to being on the similac & adding a probiotic to it once a day and it's like night and day! No more gas, he can burp, huge poops again & he had congestion that cleared up immediately once we switched

Answer

My baby is breastfeed except one 2 ounce bottle of simalic supplemental formula a day. He's alway gassy! As for poop, he was going after every feed till about 2 weeks old, now he goes every few days. Doctor said its normal as long as he goes once every 5 days.

Answer

I use the similac supplementation. He is just a naturally gassy baby, he was worse on the other brand and it made him spit up a lot so we stick to the similac, he loves it. It's normal for breastfed babies to not poop for a few days. My baby goes a day or two without pooping.

Answer

Breastfed babies don't poop often , depending on how much formula ur giving the baby it could just be normal , I only breast feed n make my own formula if I have to be away from my son which is rare but in case of emergency I have some prepared in the fridge . When he was first born he would sometimes go every 4-5 days n the lactation consultant said it was normal but I would see him pushing n nothing coming out plus a lot of gas so I tried gerber Soothe colic drops and alcohol free gripe water n it helped a lot, looking into different recipes to make ur own formula is a good idea too because it could be a dairy or wheat sensitivity causing the constipation, I use a rice milk based formula , they have recipes on Pinterest . Good luck (:

Answer

I couldn't get my LO to latch for longer than 2 min. So I pump what I can everyday which isn't Much. Enough for his morning feeding and then we used to use enflamil newborn. Well he got constipated and didn't have a bowel movement for more than 24 hrs when he was 2 week old. No matter how much people told me that's normal o don't agree. I could tell he was having discomfort and he tried to poop numerous times but nothing was coming out. We called the on call dr because this happened after hours. She told us to use a bit of glycerin suppository and switch formula to enflamil gentleease. Since then we at least have one bowel movement a day. I wish it was more but I'll take what I can. I take it day by day. FTM so I worry and get paranoid about everything.  We also use gripe water everyday. That seems to help a bit.

Answer

My son after I took him off breast milk was constipated. We tried the ones in the pic and all of them kept him constipated. So I read some forums on Google and a lot of parents suggested Enfamil Reguline and his poops are now back to normal. The ones that didn't work.

The one that works is this one below. But I have to order online. The stores close by are always sold out.
