Hello,

I need to know which formula milk you introduced and if it has lactose in it or not. Some times babies are intolerant to lactose and they encounter digestion problems. I suggest you to seek medical help for proper examination and testing.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
