what should i do?

edited October 2011 in Babies Health
when my son was first born he was on similac , the wic provides enfamil so i decided to switch him over. But now hes been extremely fussy and gassy even constipated.. what should i do ? i had asked his doctor before i switched over & she said he will be perfectly fine. any suggestions please?

  • try a different kind of enfamil. like gentle something. sorry dont know much about formula
  • I heard you need a Dr. note to switch formula thru wic so I would ask the Dr. for advice on a different kind of enfamil or going to gerber or going back to similac. I used similac so that's all I know but they have one for gas. So that might be what your baby needs. Hope your little one feels better soon!
  • thanks , i think might just go back to similac
  • Ask for your doctor to give you a perscription for it then wic will accommodate
  • My baby did the same when I switched from enfamil to similac due to wic but she got used to it. Just put him on the gentle lease.
  • All babies are different. My daughter didn't like enfamil either and I tried infant and gentlease. She now drinks similac sensitive for gas and fussiness (there's another kind for spit up) and she does great.
  • I had the same issue but wic here provides similac......I heard along of women say same thing abbout enfimil
  • Try enfamil gentle ease or enfamil ar
  • Try gentelease I used it.with both my sons. Wic covers it just get a doctors note
  • Get gentle ease or gentless its called something like that and IRS for gas and fussing. Also try a bottle of water or Karo syrup in the milk that should help the constipation.
