About a week ago, I changed my 6 week old's formula to Good Start. He started off on Enfamil, and then Enfamil Gentleease. He tends to fussy and gassy, so I am trying to find a formula that is the best for him.. Good Start actually seems to be working, except for one thing.. His poop is now a very dark color, almost black! Is this normal? Sometimes it even looks charcoal grey... i know that it happened when we switched him to Good Start.. Is this the reason?

My first reaction is that the blackish poops are from the iron in the formula. Check the packages and see what the iron content is in both. The Good Start might have more.

Baby's poop is going to change when their diet changes. JD was so gassy and fussy when he was on good start though, we changed him to Similac Isomil Advace. I swear by that stuff ... it's the best. Good Luck to you! You can also buy it in bulk for so much cheaper than at walmart or anything at www.1800diapers.com and by using KAWIS86076 at check out you can save $2! :o) Good Luck to ya! :o)
