my baby is 6 mnth old, we switched her to stage 2 similac and it caused her diarrhoea. When we switched back to stage 1 , she is fine now, but asking more feed. How to switch her to stage 2 similac? Can I mix stage 1 and stage 2 in ratio for better transition? Or should I find another formula, as similac stage 1 was suiting her, but stage 2 made her sick.
