Good afternoon, girls, how do you properly switch to a new formula?

Good afternoon, girls, how do you properly switch to a new formula? Our pediatrician says to mix them, but to me, that seems weird.

Hello! The transition to a new formula should be done gradually so that the baby's body can get used to the new product without stress. You can start by mixing the new formula with the old one in a 1:1 ratio, then gradually increase the amount of the new formula. It is important to monitor the child's reaction to the new formula and consult a pediatrician if any problems arise.

Do not mix, but gradually introduce; if it's the same brand, you can switch between feedings. We didn't switch from 1 to 2; we didn't like 2 and stayed on 1 until one year, the composition is the same, the only difference is in the calories, and only slightly at that.

Ника, Why make things so complicated for the digestive system?! I would switch to a new one right away.

Kaleriya_Mayer, The pediatrician said to do it this way. That's why I thought about switching from our 2 to another one and from ours to a different one.

We transitioned the baby slowly. Initially, 30 per day, then 30 in the morning and 30 at noon the following day. After that, 60 in the morning and 30 at noon, then 60 in the morning and 60 at noon, and 30 in the evening, and gradually switched from there. But mine was little, only a month old. The first formula didn't suit him. Of course, I didn't mix anything.

Hello. You cannot mix formulas, even from the same manufacturer. It's better to first give a little of the new one (30ml), then finish with the old one. If everything goes well, then increase the dose the next day. We transitioned like this 3 times.
