Is there any formula that doesnt contain sugar?!

Question

Just looking into possibly stopping breastfeeding, my lo is terribly gassy and has not passed a stool in 5 days. Any suggestions to formulas that are going to be good that won't bind her up and that don't have sugar in it?!

Answer

Baby's Only Organic Dairy formula doesn't have sugar. It's marketed to toddlers simply because they encourage breastfeeding but it can be used for infants. 
Personally though I wouldn't give up breastfeeding simply because your baby is gassy. Try a probiotic like Gerber sooth probiotic drops or ask your pediatrician but breastmilk isn't causing the gas and is WAY better then any formula out there. Also as another mother mentioned it is very normal for breastfed babies not to poop for days.

Answer

Sounds like maybe she has a food allergy/intolerance and it would be beneficial to eliminate some foods from your diet. Dairy is a common one that causes gastrointestinal issues. Formula is way more constipating that breastmilk and they all contain sugar because breastmilk contains sugar and they want it to taste similar. I wouldn't give up on breastmilk just yet, you can control what is in breastmilk better than what is in formula.

Answer

Just so you know, breastfed babies can go over a week without pooping and it's fine. Breast milk contains little waste. I once looked into even organic formula and they contained sugar. Good luck
