Question
Is it bad to switch baby formula frequently?
Answer
Based on your description, your child is currently being fed with formula milk, and you are concerned that frequent switching of formula brands may have an adverse effect on your child’s gastrointestinal function. Generally, due to the weaker gastrointestinal function of infants, frequent switching of formulas may lead to their discomfort and even trigger gastrointestinal problems. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not often change the formula. However, if a change is necessary, you can gradually increase the proportion of the new formula while reducing the proportion of the old formula to minimize the stimulation to your baby’s gastrointestinal tract. I hope this suggestion will be helpful to you.
