Does protein shakes upset anyone's stomach?

I've tried some protein coffee and protein shake and usually my stomach is a bit upset after. Do I just need to get used to it or should I try powder?

Althéra experiences

Is anyone on Althéra, if so what’s your experience on it? My little one completely refused Aptamil Pepti 1 so the dietitian put him back onto Kendmail & his symptoms are still persisting. So we are now trying Althéra. Quite nervous his feeds are going to drastically drop again as we ended up in hospital last time.
