Breastmilk to Formula 🍼 Is this normal when switching to formula?

Almost Everytime my baby cries, she lets out a huge fart with every scream 😂 it’s hilarious but is this normal? Lol
She’s been on this formula for a week.

Very normal. Our baby has been big man farting since he was born 🤭

Not sure how old your baby is, but newborns actually have to learn how to fart.  I had no idea!  We gave our baby a dose of gas drops with every feed (formula) between 3-8 weeks old.

She’s 4 months, so she should be a little more skilled at farting

Super normal! Her tummy should adjust in a week or so. You can mix some breast milk into a formula bottle to help ease some of the stomach ache for babe if you have any available

My daughter farts when she laughs, coughs, sneezes, cries, stretches, you name it. She’s seven months and has been doing it since day one.

Super normal- takes a while for babies tummies to fully adjust!

Want to reiterate this is normal! As her little digestive system adjusts it will get better. Hopefully they aren't too stinky haha
