Toddler milk is advertised as containing much more iron than cow’s milk, but this is misleading. Cow’s milk contains very little iron and is not where you or your baby gets iron from in their diet. Iron is found in red meat, eggs, lentils and pulses, and green leafy veg. Lactose intolerance occurs when your body cannot digest lactose, a natural sugar found in milk and dairy products. It's often temporary and can occur in your baby's first few months until their levels of lactase (the enzyme that digests lactose) have become fully established. Since we made this move (3 days ago), she’s had really watery diarrhoea and seems not so much her normal self.

Under the regulations, infant formula is also not allowed to be advertised to the public or be offered at a discounted rate. This is so that it doesn’t undermine breastfeeding. IMPORTANT NOTICE: Breastfeeding is best. Cow & Gate Anti-Reflux and Cow & Gate Comfort are foods for special medical purposes. They should only be used under medical supervision, after full consideration of the feeding options available including breastfeeding.

I’m not sure if she is just getting used to the carobel or if she was going to get diarrhoea anyway but is being made worse with it being in the comfort milk which is for constipation.
