Yes...but..: Any time you change the feeds there can be a change in the way they process the material & stool. If they are vigorous feeders & thriving such change has little importance. It can take 3-4 days for prior feed to exit the system & a full picture of the current feeds pattern. If it troubles you & the prior feed did well it is okay to resume it.

Growth and hydration: These symptoms may be related to the change, but if there is no vomiting, blood or mucus in the stool, and good growth, a two week trial on the formula is indicated. Please follow up with your pediatrician.
