Well i am happy to report that since moving to the Karicare Aptamil Gold formula everything seems to be back on track now. The Karicare has less iron in it (than the Nan Ha Gold) and the tin recommends 250mls of water so with the less iron and more fluids (about and extra 150mls a day plus her sippy cups sips) things are finally regular! Now I feel comfortable in having her try lots of different foods as I was never comfortable with feeding her and feeding her....and having nothing come out! Happy baby happy mummy. (ps. I was on the old Nan HA Gold formula so nothing to do with the new and 'improved' formula. I am so happy they changed though as I would never have considered changing her formula as the Nan is recommended by alot of people as it is supposedly easy to digest). Even my MHN said it wouldn't be worthwhile changing the formula. Glad I didn't listen to her on this occassion. (I do really like her though and find her very helpful) Thanks everyone for your tips and advice
