bellajoyasked
Hi my 10 week old baby has been on S26 Gold newborn for a couple of weeks and I have noticed that every time she poos it is a dark green, smells and sticky. Is this normal? Will she go back to normal colour poo soon?
1 answer
Hey Bellajoy, it is completely normal for babies that are formula fed to have dark green poos. It’s to do with the high iron content in formulas. As long as she isn’t constipated and doesn’t have trouble pooing it’s nothing to worry about :)
Brookeasked
My baby is 7 weeks old and has been on S26 Gold Newborn since birth. He spits up a fair bit and I’m considering changing him to the S26 AR formula instead. Does the AR formula still have all the ingredients that’s targeted at newborns as per the Newborn formulation?
Also, do S26 Gold formulas have probiotics and prebiotics or should I be adding supplements?

2 answers
Yes, I have noticed the change in packaging. But they are definitely the same product and there is not problems in mixing. If you are unsure, then you should contact S26 pro - send them a photo. But if you are in Australia, then I am sure it is fine.

zia lapiraasked
How many hours did the milk of s26 last?
1 answer
Baby formula that has been prepared should be consumed or stored in the refrigerator within 1 hour. If it has been at room temperature for more than 1 hour, throw it away. And if your baby doesn't drink all the formula in the bottle, throw away the unused portion. Do not save it for later.
Pipsquadasked
I have punctured a small whole on a bag of s26. Just to let air out just to fit inside my bag. Is it okay? I'm a little bit worried..

Two weeks ago my 7 weeks old son starts to have one or two formula a day due to the brest milk supply. I noticed that he will not pop for hours or whole day, and start to cry often and dramatically.

Nwosu Wasked
Hi my baby has been stooling he uses s 26 gold and I have used it for the past 3weeks were I kept it, it very cold. What can actually be the cause of the stooling?
2 answers
This can be due to a number of things usually changing formula can cause this and you need to allow a month of use to get used to the formula. If your baby is also taking medications this can cause it too. Your best to however speak to a pharmasist or doctor

My baby is 4months old....unfortunately I bought s26 milk for 6 to 12 months at the grocery store,I already open it..Is it ok to give this milk to a 4months old baby?
2 answers
Id advise not to as it will be too strong for your baby unfortunatley. With them habing the age guidelines it has different nutirents required for each age frame. Ultimatley gibing your baby the formula too early may result in stomach upset, vommitting or constipation.
