I've been giving my 8weeks baby novalac ar1 because he's been vomiting (spitting up). no when he wants to poop he cries so bad and has poop is so sold. which novalac i can use?

Go back to regular: The thickener in Novalac AR may be causing your infant to have constipation. The first line of treatment for spitting up is reduced volume and increased frequency feeds. At 8 weeks, your infant should be drinking 6-8oz regular formula every 4-6 hours. Try decreasing it to 6oz every 4 hours and see if that helps with the spitting up. Also, keep your baby upright during the feeding and afterwards.
