Hi Michelle. It will take sometime for your child to get used to the new formula. This is very normal. Babies may either get constipated or have an upset tummy. You could give her some apple juice to help with the constipation. A few teaspoons throughout the day will help. Hope she feels better soon.

Diluted apple or even prune juice helps with constipation. It has worked for my children when they were babies. I know of other moms do this too.

Constipation also occurs in babies when they r underfed. As ur baby is 6 months old u can try with top feed like moong dal rice khichri, apple juice as mentioned by pro parents, papaya etc.

@Ruchita, Hi, Weight of your daughter is on lower side. You may try the ideas given in the blog. Make her have meals with you and the family. If her paediatrician has adviced her multivitamins, he must have felt the need to do so, then you must give her those, for the prescribed period of time. For weight increasing suggestion you may put your query at the nutrition corner.
