A few weeks ago I decided that I would check out Target's brand of formula. I compared the ingrediants to the Similac and determined that they were the same. Target's brand of formula was $10 cheaper so I decided that I would talk to the doctor about his thoughts on switching him to Target's brand.
He gave us the go ahead and so we made the switch.
Poor baby, it made him so constipated to the point that he was passing a little blood with his stools. After a call to Blank ER, (of course this happened after the doctor's office had closed!) I was instructed to give him some juice to help him pass his stools.
I gave him some juice (after thinking that I was going to hurt him by giving him juice!) last night because we have struggled with this for a few days. We are going to do 1/2 oz. of juice with a 1/2 of water every night before he goes to bed and hope that this helps. There is no worse feeling in the world than when your baby is in pain and you are so limited in what you can do!
Our next appointment with the doctor is April 21st and we will re-evaluate at that time.
