Formula milk stage 2 issue
My baby is 6 months old.I switched from similac stage 1 to stage 2 but my baby is not drinking that formula milk properly and she is passing loose motion for past 5 days. But she is passing motion 2 times per day( watery). Sometimes she is vomiting formula milk. Is this normal or I need to change formula milk brand. If so which one I can give her. Pls suggest me.

Similac stage 2 uses casein which is more difficult to digest compared to the whey protein of stage 1
Next Steps
No need to change the formula. Just continue using stage 1 as it has all nutrients including iron needed for the baby
