How to Switch Baby Formula

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Veronica Baragas with my wigglesandgiggles.com, and I'd like to share with you how to switch baby formula. So what I would start out doing is definitely grabbing the two formulas that you are going to be using. And to start out with, I would mix the two together to kind of get your baby used of the taste and kind of see how it works out, little by little to notice if there's any side affects or gassiness or anything like that, so definitely start to alternate the formulas together little by little. Once you've completely switched over to the new formula, check for signs of gassiness, constipation, check what their stools like, and see if there is any kind of abnormalities, or if there's anything abnormal about your baby's comfortness level and whatnot. If you find that everything is good, then you've done a great job and they've liked the formula. A lot of times babies don't have too much problems with switching over to formula it may take a day or two. But if you're having complications, I would immediately stop the formula that you switched to and convert back to your old formula, consult your doctor, and it shouldn't be anything too major, but just kind of talk to them if you are having problems with your new formula."
