Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Repeated changing of formulas will cause problems,stick to one formula.
Formula feeds usually cause constipation unlike breast milk.
Add fresh fruit juice to you menu to ease constipation.
This is the time to introduce milk cereal mixture along with formula e,g., Cerelac.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required.
Take care
