Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi Doctor, My baby is 42 days old now.He was a preterm 32 weeks,LBW(1800gram),at the time of birth.From birth he used to take preNan formula milk.By last week he became 2670grams and Doctor advised to start pronan 1 formula.But after introducing pro nan 1 baby is getting occasional loose stool .And he is crying vigorously while passing stool.Please tell me whether I need to continue pronan or prenan? Thank you, XXXX
If I had a patient like this in my clinic I would suggest continuing with pro nan1 for few more days. It takes some time to adapt to the change in food for the baby.
It should not be a major concern. If he becomes more irritable kindly show him to your doctor as it can be due to other factors too.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
