    im using sma white for the hungrier baby but ive noticed since using it jayden is very wingy in the mornings and at night. ive been giving him cooled boiled water as suggested as it can ake them constipated but do you reckon its the formula or him just being wingy?

    anyone else experienced this?

    Hi hun. When I switched my lo from SMA Gold to SMA white she became very constipated so I changed her to cow and gate plus for hungary babies and she was fine on that. x x x

    I gave her cooled boiled water too but it did'nt seem to work and I was getting a bit worried as she was really straining for days, I ended up putting her back onto gold for a couple of days just so she could have a poo! Thats when I decided the white was'nt doing her ne favours so I came on here for advice and the girls suggested Cow and gate plus which was fine and suited her really well. You could give it a try and see if your lo is ne happier on it? x x Sarah x x

    I give my LO aptimal for hungrier babies and she does get a bad tummy now and then- cool boiled water helps but only if u give it to them regularly and also i found that giving her the cartons helps too if she is being a bit wingy. I find that LO doesnt go for a poo for ages and then suddenly she has an explosion in her nappy and its everywhere!!!!!!!!

    I switched my LO to white from gold pretty recently, and she was pretty whingy to begin with. She was a very windy baby when she was just born and had grown out of it, but got it came back with a vengeance when I switched her. She wasn't showing normal signs of being windy, it was only after a series of huge burps while trying to settle her I realised what the problem was. Perhaps it has affected your LO in the same way?

    Hiya, Ive been using infacol since week 1 and he brings up wind pretty well with minimal effort. Only sometimes he has a problem so i dont think its that...maybe hes just having a couple of off days?

    Im so glad someone else has started a thread about this as i thought my LO was just going mad!!
    harry is 19 days old and was eating like a horse so i got some sma white and thought i would try it at night and still use gold in day. Well past 2 nights i gave him white and he was awful. He doesnt like sleeping in his moses basket anyway but does settle with us. Well he was screaming the place down and just wouldnt settle at all, no matter what we did he was not happy. Also after 2 hours i thought i would try him on some gold as nothing was calming him down. well he ended up taking 4ozs of gold just 2 hours after taking 4ozs of white. Im not going to be giving him white anymore and will speak to HV now as to where to go from here.

    Hi Rach, sorry your having hard time with it, Who knew chosing a formula would be such a pain. Jayden seems to be ok now, had settled down alot more, is still a bit wingy but nothing like he was, maybe he just didnt like the switch over. Plus im making sure hes getting 2oz of cooled boiled water so he doesnt get constipated. Your HV may say try a hungrier formula in maybe aptamil or cow & gate. Good luck
