Tips On Relieving Constipation

No, there is NOTHING wrong with formula. I’m not debating that point.
Ethan was put on formula at about 5 weeks when I thought I didn’t have enough breast milk. We tried almost every formula there was. We tried Similac,Enfamil Gentlease, Enfamil Soy, Similac Sensitive, Similac Sensitive R.S., Enfamil A.R, Nutramagin, and Alimentum(all changes under the care of a pediatrician) over the next 11 months. He just didn’t do well on formula. If he wasn’t projectile vomiting, he was spitting up ounces after each feed. Or he had diarrhea or constipation, gas, or fussiness after each feed.
When I think back about all that he went through I wish so much that I had had the education and support to work through the breastfeeding problems and to keep nursing him. I just didn’t know any better. I didn’t know anyone I could talk to her even how to look it up on the internet. If I would have kept breastfeeding him his reflux would have been better delt with and he wouldn’t have had any of these problems with formula.
Has anyone had a similar experience? I guess that’s why hindsight is 20-20!
