Is it ok to switch formulas?

Question

We give LO one bottle of formula at night 3-4 times a week. We were giving her Similac Advanced from the blue can and we ran out. We have a orange can of Similac Sensitive. Would it be ok to use this or should we expect side effects? Upset tummy or fussiness? Thanks!

Answer

Baby may get an upset tummy due to changing the formula, my advice of giving the other tin stick to that one rather than going back to the other one, you don't want to keep changing as baby won't be getting used to that formula and will end up with bellyaches

Answer

It depends. If exclusively formula feeding it may cause an upset tummy. If breastfeeding and formula feeding then most likely won't be an issue. We breastfeed and switched formulas depending on what the pediatrician had for samples.
