Changing formula & Loose Stool?

DS is 10 months old and because the BJ's brand is sooooo much cheaper (and we know so many people using it) we decided to try it out. Now, he's getting diarrhea. We only started it Wednesday night and his stool was loose yesterday and today now. Not diarrhea, he's not constantly going, just his usual amount of BM's and just loose. Before I go and call the doctor, could this be from the change in formula and will it regulate or should I just go back to the Similac - it wasn't sensitive, just regular, so who knows.

It is most likely from the change and will resolve itself in about a week
Their bodies just need to adjust to the new formula.

If it lasts longer than that, I'd ask the ped

sounds like its the formula change. if it doesn't get better i'd probably just go back to the old one if he was doing OK on it

My dd was fine on similac sensitive but couldn't use the bjs, target or bru versions. Although they are supposedly the same formula they gave her diarrhea.

Same thing happened when we changed my DS's formula. Also happened when we switched to whole milk at 12 months.
