Have the doctor not prescribed you it? I thought that’s what they usually do? Also following for symptoms

My LO was having stomach cramps, screaming in pain, upset tummy, noises from tummy everytime she had lactose. My husband and I are both lactose intolerant so we figured she would be too. We started her on Aptamil lactose free milk and gradually weaned that off to switch her over to Aptamil comfort. We used lactase drops as well to ease the transition

thats interesting, i dont think my boys in pain as such but as soon as the doc started touching his belly he started reacting 🤔 noises from belly do u mean like farting?

I know its normal to of course pass wind but my boys is like i dont know how his little body creates such noise and thumble 🤣 and my boys toilets have never been too good either dark green and really smelly… did u have any similar?

My baby developed temporary lactose intolerance after a viral gastroenteritis so he’s on aptamil lactose free formula for 8 weeks!

My baby has been on nutramigen then neocate from early on, she had bloating, runny poo, rash, mucus in poo. You should get it on prescription from ur GP! X

My baby had reflux and was going red from straining and grunting so much. Since we switched to LF SMA powder (previously on Apatamil). His reflux had stopped but he is now pooing after every feed. Not sure if this is diahorrea now. He seems happy within himself and there is hardly any spit up.

How has your boy gotten on with it?
