    Hi,

    What are the sighs i should look out for to know if lo has developed and digestive prob or milk intorerance?

    my little man for the past 2 weekly weigh in's has lost weight. Now a total of 7oz so still only weighs 12lb 5oz at 15 weeks old. he was putting it on nicely then dropped a breast feed wanting a bottle instead. when all his probs started

    he now has only 1 b/feed and 3x5oz bottles (i do offer him more but just leaves it everytime)

    in the past 2 1/2 weeks we've has watery green runny poo, constipation+ransid farts and brown poo. he's also now a far more sicky baby then ever before.

    the hv 's just dont seem bothered!

    My lo had a suspected milk allergy (all the girls in my family are allergic to dairy) but it turned out not to be. I didn't ask my hv (she is not that great - a nice lady but far too wishy washy for my liking!), I just went to see my gp who prescribed a special milk for her to try.
    I would suggest that you go and see your gp and tell him/her that your lo's problems have only appeared after you introduced formula.
    Best of luck.

    well were back from docs.

    ive got a laxative to give him but no special milk cause were curently on cow and gates comfort milk but if he's lost yet more weight at baby club on tues i am to return for special milk. he said it'd be pointless cause him system wouldnt be able to take a change of milk and laxative at the same time

    so i'm up for a good weekend knee deep in stinky poo!!!! wow thats really exciting!
