how long? formula switch? notice a difference?
How long did it take to notice a difference when switching formulas, good or bad results? did you notice right away or in a few days?

It depends which formula
Switching for gas to a product like gentlease can take up to 2 weeks, but big difference in about 2 days
Formula for milk pro allergy about 48h
Formula for spit up - immediate
HTH!

Re: how long? formula switch? notice a difference?
When DS was at that age, I think I tried every formula out there. Some I gave 4-5 days and some I switched the next day.
The only one that worked wonders was Nutramigen, was a life saver for us

we did, we knew it would take at least 2 weeks to see a real difference - the Ped warned us.
the issue with a protein (or lactose) allergy is that the gut needs to heal. damage is done and their little bellies need to heal before we'll see a real difference. the excessive spit -up stopped pretty quickly but it took a few weeks for his BMs to become "normal"
