Babies: 0 - 3 Months

formula

i bottle feed baby 1/2 time.  My question is...do you water it down a little?  if i dont, his tummy gets really sick and he throws up.  he is gaining weight steadily.  he has always been in the20th %tile for weight.

  • I don"t think you are supposed to water down the formula......

  • no. you really really shouldn't do that. It can be dangerous!

    Try different formulas. It sounds like the one he's on just isn't settling well with him. Or maybe he's overeating if he spits up after bottles.

  • You are not supposed to add water to pre-mixed formula's.  That's a good way to throw off the balance of what your LO is supposed to be getting.
