Comfort formula
Suitable from birth (but ask a midwife or health visitor for advice first).
This type of formula contains cows' milk proteins that have already been partly broken down (partially hydrolysed). This is supposed to make it easier to digest and help prevent digestive problems such as colic and constipation. However, there's no evidence for this.
Partially hydrolysed formulas are not suitable for babies who have cows' milk allergy.
I came across this very informative article about a list of baby formulas for a colic baby. You know that it was written by an experienced mother because it is extremely well-researched. In this article, you will not only find a review of the best choices for a baby formula but also remedies to try on relieving colic symptoms and the details to look for when choosing a formula.
I hope it helps.
