Has anyone ever had to switch their baby's formula abruptly because the current one wasn't suitable? My baby reacts badly to the formula—he poops after every feeding and there's blood. We were advised to change the formula gradually, but he's already refusing the unsuitable one on his own. Still, the small amount I give him—about 30 ml of the new formula—is not enough to satisfy him. Also, we're only a month in, and we've already changed his cereal four times. I'm worried I might harm him. Yesterday, we took a stool test and are waiting for the results. We weren't referred for any other tests. Our pediatricians seem quite unhelpful—they can't give clear answers and just send us to other specialists, like surgeons, without a clear reason. I'm really worried about my baby. 🥲

I changed suddenly and multiple times.

There will be no blood in your stool. This indicates that your intestines are damaged. You should call an ambulance immediately and go to the hospital for treatment.

Blood streaks in the stool often indicate an allergy to cow's milk protein. I used to think that having a bowel movement with each feeding was normal for such little ones — my two boys would have a bowel movement at every feeding for months, up to 1.5-2 years old.

Natasha We were advised to go to the hospital, but our admission was denied. The surgeon examined us and said that we have a small crack, which caused bleeding in the area, and they sent us home.
