NAN HA users. New formula making babies very Sick?

[GrabbyCrabby]

I spoke to the pharmacist today, who said she hadn't heard of the problems above. But if I'm worried, to try DS on a different formula for three to four days, and see what happens. If he gets better- bad formula - see GP to report an adverse reaction. No change, then it probably wasnt the formula.

The old formula was more like cornflour, and the newer one is heavier, and more grainy.

Nestlé...

My friends poor DS is close to being hospitalised due to this

As it is he has many allergies and now with the change of recipe he hasn't been able to keep anything down for 6 days now

I can see many law suits as a result of this stuff up.

OMG !! My 11 week old daughter has had bad wind & gross, runny green poo since being on NAN HA GOLD. Is it the same 'new recipe' for just the NAN HA ??

Nestlé should be ashamed of themselves!

I know.

It's not like it's the first time they've scr3wed over bubs and mums!

They're a disgrace.

for those switching do you just do a straight switch from one bottle to the next or do you have to do it gradually?

Dh and I just checked it out and they have changed calcium chloride for potassium chloride.
Dh and I just compared our old tin to the new tin and there are at least 4 extra ingredients.
And all the vitamin/fat/sugar contentshave changed.
I don't work in a lab so I can't tell you extaclly what the 4+ extra ingredients are.. But they don't sound so nice.

I'm really ****ed off about this!

I'm sure they will change it back.. But until then I have to go through the process of finding another formula.
DD is 18mo and has been advised to stay on formula (she also has allergies)
I'm thinking I will call her specialist tomorrow and see what one will be good for her to try, she was on neocate and ElleCare when she was younger but under her specialists advise we switched to NAN HA when she was 12mo with no issues.

Some formulas have ingredients derived from egg (which my DD is severely allergic to) and before she was on neocate I remember some brands sent her into an allergic reaction.

I'm at a loss at what to do.

Thanks for putting this info up I wonder what has made them change the ingredients? Cost cutting?

Hear, hear! I wish they just stuck to making chocolate bars and Milo.

So many disgruntled mums. I emailed them to complain weeks and weeks ago with no response. I'm guessing now with all this bad press they'll do something. Why bother with independent testing, just CHANGE IT BACK to what worked!

I am one of the luckier ones though, as the only problem my son has had is awful green runny poops but it doesn't distress him at all. No eczema or wind or constipation. My main problem was that they ripped us off of 100grams in product, trying to distract us all with claims of this fantastic scoop. I don't know about any of you but who gives a toss about the scoop??! If the formula works for you baby you'll use any kind of scoop you're given.

The question is, do I change out of principal and risk problems with a new formula or stay with Nestlé as I'd rather not? I'd like a solution to the poop issue but since it's not making him uncomfortable is it worth it??

Our 12 mth ds is on the stage 3 and last week we started using the new formula and his eczthma on his face and body has suddenly come up, he also has been irritable and the same day developed oral thrush which has not gone away. I have just put him straight onto a2 cows milk instead of formula. These poor bubbas not good enough!
