Acidic poo- nutramigen

Hiya - this exact same thing happened to us, sorry to hear you’re going through it as it’s really tough. We took our little one to A&E as it’s almost impossible for the rash to heal with the pops being so constant. The doctor told us nutramigen is considerably more acidic then normal formula and some babies react to it in this way. We were represcribed SMA Althera instead which has works perfectly for us as it’s gentler. They also gave us steroid cream to help the rash. I would insist that the doctor prescribes SMA althera instead of Nutramigen and try to keep baby’s nappy off so the air can get to the rash and help heal it - not easy when it’s so cold, but this really helped us. Feel free to private message me for me help if you need to - wishing baby a speedy recovery xxx

I cant comment on the milk causing the rash but both my children had bad rashes from pampers and I found warm baths and plenty of aqueous cream helped and the Dr described some steroid cream for my little girl which we use not if she gets sore. Always worth talking to drs though especially if baby isn't doing well on the milk as they won't gain weight. My little girl was only on nutramigen for 8 days lost weight and had reactions to it so her milk was changed to neocate

When my baby started having this milk he had over 20 dirty nappies in the first day and not much less the next day. It was awful. It didn’t last a week though so maybe contact your doctors

Thanks for advise. I’m taking her back to GP tomorrow. Hoping they prescribe another brand of milk and something for the raw bottom. I have been using drapolene and metanium with no luck
