Formula fed means less poo because it will take time for the little tummy to process and make poo. Little Andrew used to do it once a day but we find that they were way too "hard" so we thought we should change his formula.
He started with Anmum Infacare. Besides having hard poo, baby is also feeling kinda "heaty" with lots of prickly heat on the face.
Then we changed to Mead Johnson's Enfagrow. Little Andrew either didn't like it or his tummy wouldn't agree with it. He spit out way too much after each feed. The texture is smoother compare to Anmum's and it's less milky smell.
Since he spit out too much, we decided to try Abbott's Similac. I find this way too chemical- not only the formula but baby's poo smell chemical. We didn't like it at all.
So in the end we decided not to try other brands, we went back to Anmum's. Since we find it "heaty" we will just have to give Little Andrew more water between his feed.
Oh and his poo turned to GREEN colour ever since he had Similac >.< We were quite shocked the first time because he had been passing out yellow poo and all of a sudden it turned green!!! You should see the horror and the worry on my face when I changed his diaper or rather when I see the green poo coming out!!
After asking around it seems normal. We waited until Little Andrew's doctor review to ask Dr K. Dr K assured us that it is normal - because we showed him pictures. He said green poo means high fat content in the formula that he is drinking. Phew! Now we can finally breath a sign of relief!
The green poo reminds me of his early poo that was BLACK and scary~~~
