What Causes Child To Have Loose Stools After Starting Nan 2?
My baby boy just turned 6 months, I introduced him to nestle nan 2, he was on nestle nan 1 before, but now he has loose stools. He always needs a diaper change every now and then compared to before. What is causing this change? He does not cry though. Am just worried about these excessive loose stools.

Hi..it is quite common when a formula feed is being changed and hence do not worry. You have rightly mentioned that he is not crying, that means he doesn't have any pain in the tummy. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.
DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE FREQUENCY OF THE STOOLS IF THE KID IS ACTIVE AND PASSING URINE WELL.
