Hi,
Welcome to Hcm,
There is no urgent need to do that. Lactogen is good enough as long as baby is liking it. Loose stools can happen if unhygiene method used to prepare feed. That needs to be avoided. Be as hygiene as possoble while preparing and feeding him. Stomach pain which you think is happening is actually gaseous distension and can be prevented by burping adequately after feed. May your child gave great health. Take care.
