Tummy Pains

Does she also have horrible gas??? Farting bullets is how we described it. It was so painful for my dd, usually had mucousy blow outs too. She also spit up more. It took awhile for the milk proteins to build up in her system from the alimentum. We switched to neocate and on day 6 we saw major improvment. A week of constipation though, but once she got used to the new formula it subsided. Also, my dd’s eczema got alot better. maybe you can ask for a couple cans from your gi. ohh… and the Hylands have lactose in them that can bug mspi babies. Hope this helps, i went through almost the exact same thing a few months ago!

Definately sounds like Ryann and a mspi issue. At 11 weeks we had to have the prevacid compounded. Wonder if it is the prevacid or the formula, maybe both? I don’t know what the difference is between the 2 hypoallergenic forumulas, maybe the price? You will need more than one can of neocate to get you through a week. It will be more watery too, we had to thicken with simply thick and oatmeal (a little at first). Also, mix the 2 forumals together at first to try to “trick” her into the switch so she won’t notice. If she gets too constipated, some moms give juice, she is alittle young, but maybe you could try some baby food. I had to use a laxitive the first week and enimas. Also, don’t be allarmed when you see blackish green poops. Let me know if you need anything during your switch. There are some good posts from a couple months ago when myself and a couple other moms made the switch at the same time. Good luck, hope her gas subsides really fast!
