What Causes Weight Loss,flatuence,hard Stool And Vomitings When On Lactogen?

My baby is 8 mnths old now. from his 4th mnth onwards I startd giving him lactogen because of insufficient breast milk. There onwards I observd him losing weight, passing bad gas, hard stool, vomitings even after 2hrs of feeding. Now I changed to NAN Pro 2, is it gud to change at this age?
I also startd giving solids to him frm 5th mnth onwards.
Please suggest me whether I go for nan pro or not..

Hi,
Thanks and welcome to HCM .
All symptoms you mentioned are possible if change to formula with improper dilution from breast feeding.
Instead if you can replace with animal milk like cows milk most of your problems will disappear.
All these symptoms are normal if you feed with formulas.
As she is past 6 months you may give non pro 2 if you like.
Hope this reply is OK for you.
