ShootingStar - we never went to Stage 2 formula as he reacted really badly to it, so we just stuck to Stage 1 and kept managing things that way.
MR thank you for the advice regarding dieticians & potential food intolerances. I'm getting more and more concerned. The past 2 days he's been on a diet of only fruits, veg, some yoghurt and his formula & his poos are still distressing him a lot which is so difficult for us to see. I think I'm going to find someone to make an appointment with as well as seeing how he goes weaning off the formula in the next month to cows milk.
MR - he's so close to 12 months old and I'm really wanting the formula out of the equation to see if it IS the actual issue? Would I be doing any harm to see how he reacted if I start weaning him from it now? I'm just looking for something right now to help us make some progress.
I found that Soy and Linseed bread keeps my both my girls regular. Sultana Bran or Allbran is excellent too if you want another option to the weetbix. I know what you mean about the formula. Maybe drop the number of formula bottles he's having and introduce a milk bottle instead? I'm no expert though. Just a suggestion. Bowel problems can be so stressful. Sending you big hugs xx
