Important Feeding Information

Warning: For infant’s health, we suggest advising parents to carefully follow the instructions for preparation and use. Proper hygiene, preparation, dilution, use, and storage are important when preparing formula. Advise parents not to use a microwave to warm formula. Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe harm. Not for intravenous use.

  1. Diaper Rash
  2. According to a pediatrician, the introduction of new formulas to your baby can cause diaper rash with a digestive complication. And this is because the buttock of your baby is a really sensitive area. So as moisture and chemicals engulf your baby’s bottom, and the diaper moves back and forth, it is only normal that diaper rashes come up.

  3. Digestive Complications
  4. Given the fact that Nutramigen is a hydrolyzed formula, the protein present in it is pre-digested and already broken down, to support digestion. Nutramigen Enflora LGG, for example, comes in formulations that work for both infants and toddlers, and with Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG (LGG) – a probiotic designed to enhance digestive health. But the fact that Nutramigen may not sit well with some babies cannot be overlooked.

    Because as much as Nutramigen was designed to help minimize issues that have to do with diarrhea and cow’s milk allergy, there are babies who have had issues with strong diarrhea.

    It is pivotal to understand that if your baby has digestive issues from taking Nutramigen, your observation should not be narrowed down to the formula alone, as teething can lead to diarrhea too. If your baby is older and you make an observation of frequent chewing and drooling, alongside diarrhea, then there is a tangible tendency the issue is teething, and not necessarily the formula.

  5. Weight Loss
  6. Different formula has roughly different taste; hence it is only natural that your baby chooses one over another. If you have been using a different formula for your baby all the while, and are just making a switch to Nutramigen, there is a possibility of your baby refusing on the first attempt. What you can do is, continue giving him or her Nutramigen by sticking to their usual feeding schedule.

    With time, you will find that your baby has developed a taste for the new formula. There are chances that your reduces in weight when taking Nutramigen. And the reason could be insufficiency of calories. In which case, you may want to consult your pediatrician about great formula alternatives.

  7. Stool Changes
  8. For every new food introduced to the body, there is a new reaction. This is basic biology, and applies to not just babies but also grown-ups. It is the way the body works. So when you are giving your baby a new formula such as Nutramigen, it is no strange thing that you may spot slight changes in his/her stool fashion, gas and spitting up.

    Some babies may have frequent loose stools, after introduction to Nutramigen , especially during the early feeding days. And if your baby is on iron-fortified formula, it is not abnormal that his/her stools are greenish. If stool changes bother you, then it is a sign you need to talk to your doctor.

  9. Sleeplessness

    Sleeplessness is another side effect that may accompany the use of Nutramigen for babies. Like we have earlier pointed out, each baby has a different biology, and hence, it is not out of place that your baby’s body system does not take a formula the same way another baby’s does.

    While Nutramigen may not interfere with the sleep cycle of some babies, it may affect that of others. If your baby lacks sleep after switching to Nutramigen, then you should calm down and ensure it is the formula that is actually robbing him/her of sleep, because it may not be.However, if after a close observation, the sleeplessness appears linked to Nutramigen formula, then consult your doctor for options.
