Accessed April 2021 When it comes to changing formula milk, many mums feel unsure about which milk they should be using and how to move their baby on to the next formula. Unless there is an issue, moving onto the next baby milk shouldn’t be done suddenly. Your baby will need about a week to adjust to a new formula, so introduce it gradually. You may notice some differences in their nappies – their stools may change in frequency, consistency and colour - this is because the nutritional content of the new milk and ingredients might be different to their previous milk and their digestive system may need a little while to adjust.

Before you make the switch to Aptamil Anti-Reflux milk, first read about the symptoms of reflux. If you suspect your baby has reflux, it’s important to speak to your healthcare professional and get a medical diagnosis. If your baby’s formula fed and has been diagnosed with a cows’ milk allergy, your doctor may prescribe a special kind of extensively hydrolysed formula. Here, the proteins in the milk have already been broken down into smaller pieces and your baby’s immune system doesn’t recognise it as an allergen. Rest assured that this process doesn’t affect the nutritional value of the formula, and it will still provide the wide range of vitamins and minerals that your baby needs. During the first few weeks, all babies, whether they are being breast or bottlefed, tend to need feeding very frequently – hourly feeds are not uncommon.
