Formula question...

my ped said to try a few different formulas (he gave me samples) to see which one my newborn tolerates best. But how long do you try it for - a day? Then move on to the next and compare for changes?

I tried each formula for a week to see how my DS reacted.

Re: Formula question...

Yes, do not switch it up too much.
Try one and if your baby seems ok on it, then stay with it.
If you find they are fussy, gassy, cryiing a lot etc., then maybe try to switch.

At least a week or two, if you keep switching you won't really know how they react to it.

Any reason you're trying different formulas? Unless your baby has a problem with the first formula you try, I don't see a reason to switch and try another.

I told my ped that shes spits up a lot - even when I keep her elevated etc. She also has fussy moments. So he suggested trying different ones to see if she is better on one than another.
