Transitioning off Nutramigen

Faith 🧚🏻🌙 • •

My son has a milk sensitivity, so at about 2 months old we started him on Nutramigen and it drastically improved his mood and tummy issues. He is now 9 months old and we’re thinking of transitioning him off the Nutramigen to prepare him for consuming regular milk, yogurt, etc.

I’m a bit hesitant and nervous just because I don’t want him to be in any pain or discomfort, of course. Is there a particular way to transition them? I do plan to call the pediatrician tomorrow of course, but I just want to know other peoples experiences and how they did it.

I’m also thinking it’s time to transition because he’s been constantly constipated the last two weeks. Not even prunes helps him like it normally does. So I’m wondering if it’s the formula and it’s his body’s way of saying it’s time to switch...??

Has anyone dealt with this? How was it when you transitioned off the hypoallergenic formula to dairy or even lactose free/sensitive formula?
