My boy is one years old now, I plan to start to introduce him milk formula, what should I look for in milk powder? Am new at this. I heard my friend always complain of child constipation when they changed to milk powder. Any milk powder can prevent digestive/constipation problems but at the same time providing necessary nutrition needed for the kid to grow?

try buy one milk brand in small packaging and let your boy try.
other kid good brand doesn't guarantee good for your kid

No choice you have keep on experimenting until you find the right one.

Anmum worked nicely for mine. S26 was horrible.

I would recommend Dumex Mamil as I switch to this milk since last year as it contain a combination of Prebiotics Oligosaccharide Mixture scGOS/lcFOS (9:1)that is scientifically proven to promote a healthy gut environment. So far I am bless with the result.

You can ask sample from them to try at http://www.dumex.com.my/ Register and request for sample. #mamilstories

My daughter had the same problem last time also, I had changed few different brands of formula for her but result still the same until i found Mamil Learning. You may let your boy try that as it contains prebiotics which helps improve child digestive system.

Different baby will have different acceptance for milk powder.
Milk powder tend to have more solid in it as compare to breast milk, just make sure that you give your baby boy some water everytime he finish his milk. Is a way to dilute the solid contain in milk powder.
Hope you find this helpful~

When my son was young he had so many constipation problems. So far Mamil milk worked wonders for him.

For more serious constipation issue, can go for Novamil IT. Recommended by my child pediatrician, and I can see the result after 2 weeks.

Quite hard to find as I can only find it in pharmacy, not watson / guardian, but real pharmacy. Price around 70++ to 90++ for 800gram depending on pharmacy.

for my girl, she taken Frisolac Comfort. Been taken for 6 month not problem for constipation
