Hi. He wouldn't be sick much. He was teething but seems to stop at the moment. Though feeding hasn't improved. He uses tt size 2 teat. 3 too much.

He on cow gate for the last 3-4 weeks. He loves sma gold but was only going to the toilet every six days. Try the sma comdort but not filling him enough. Dr also tryed natrageim and neocate as though he allegic but is not and wouldn' t drink very much on those. I wondering now he three months whether his digestive system could cope wirh the sma gold.  Dont really want to change again but not sure what else to do.

His weight was fine the first week he drop but on put an ounce on last week.

Not sure what nf means.  X

If there are no signs of mucous in his poops and he is generally a happy baby, i would give the other formula a try again hun.
