Nestle NAN H.A.

3 toddler why discontinue – Why did u discontinue this my son loved this. his now having nan optipro 3 toddler and has sore tummy cannot sleep was vomiting. high temperature just realised why !!!! I am so unhappy with nan thought I was giving the same thing but now realise it’s not I will be changing my baby,s formula . ☹️ can someone recommend a good formula for a 2.5 year old that stays the same and they get or there nutritional needs please

Terrible wind pain and constipation! – Absolutely horrible. We switched our 9 week old from S26 Gold to Nan HA on the advice of friends and forums because our little one was getting a bit constipated and unsettled. But this formula made it 100 times worse! Within a few days he wasn’t having bowel movements regularly, his farts smelt horrendous and he was very unsettled. A few days more… Read more

on it and he couldn’t poo at all, he was screaming in pain almost all day, he couldn’t burp well and had a swollen tummy from the pain and constipation. His pop (when he eventually had one) was green and slimy and smelt horrific. My poor baby!!!! We’ve switched back to S26 and have already noticed the crying has eased. I suspect it’s only a matter of time until the rest of the symptoms settle down too. Terrible formula. :(

Thank you Nestle for making my – Have just changed my 9 month old to the new formula opti pro and words can't express the anger. He has been on the Ha gold since born with no problems at all and now since changing we have had chalky to watering poo, screaming in pain, constipated, going off his food and not settling at night all because of your new and improved formula (WHAT A… Read more

JOKE!! ) Being a first time mother I have been on the phone nearly a week with maternal health nurses and doctors trying to figure out what was wrong and after a lot of discussion there was no other possible explanation than the formula change that happen 2 weeks ago!!! And with no idea how this is going to go I'm disappointed nestle you wouldn't keep the old formula available and offer your new and improved formula so people can pick which one they would like to buy at $24 dollars or $30 dollars a tin (with a so called new and improved formula with nestle tells me which hasn't change MUCH!!!) So thanks nestle NOT and just to let you know when I have more kids you have lost my business for life and sounds like a few other mothers too!!! Listen to your customers.

Wish I had tried this to start with! – My daughter has been bottle fed from the start and in hospital we chose S26 Gold. By about 2 weeks her poos were green and came out like tooth paste and as time went on she would cry or scream to strain out her poo. I started giving her water to try and soften them but it wouldnt work and a community nurse told me not to bother changing formulas… Read more

as they are all the same and this is why - breast is best! I swapper to Karicare and after 12 hours out her straight back on S26 gold as my daughter was hungry!! And waking up crying. Then at 5 weeks and still being constipated and unsettled I finally had another go and chose Naan HA gold due to the protein - being 100% whey - which is a quick releasing protein.

She is so much more content. No more squirming, no more apparent 'wind or tummy problems', I'm not even massaging her belly each night now because she doesn't need it. She happily finished all her bottles and sleeps for good amount of time. The only thing is her farts and the smell!!!! They are disgusting!!! But cause her no discomfort.

It actually makes me feel bad swing her poo more of a liquid type poo because now I can fully understand why my poor baby was In Hysterics trying to get the poo out when she was on S26.

Great! Welcome Change! – I had my 8 month on Bellamy's. I exclusively breastfed for 4 months then mixed fed for two and now she is on forumla full-time. Since birth she has always had a problem with passing wind and has just generally seemed out of sorts, poor sleeps and stools have varied. After a treatment of anitbiotics, and on impulse in the supermarket, I bought… Read more

this product due to the pro-biotic content. I noticed changes over the period of a week. Her stool is now what I consider a normal dark green forumla colour, consistently. She drinks nearly all of the bottle whereas before she would often leave anywhere from 50-100mls. She is the happiest I've seen her and she is sleeping the best she ever has. We even got a full-night! All this in just a week. This is my second child. The first was a dream and never had any digestive issues, ate and drank everything, but it's been different with the number 2. I never would have bought this formula had I seen these reviews first so I'm very glad I didn't. It's worth giving it a go. I'm convinced this is the right formula for our baby. Mixes easily. baby likes it. 30ml scoop leads to less guess work! Only con really is that the scoop is small so have to make sure you keep count.

Fantastic formula – We used this with my son for 6 months and never had any problems what so ever. We had purchased some as a back up for use on the odd occasion with my daughter and she has taken to it without any issues. It is pretty reasonably priced and a great value product.

It is very good for my baby – We used Nan HA Gold 1 since my baby born, when my baby turned to 6 months old, we went to Nan HA Gold 2. There is no any issues to feed my baby with this formal. My baby loves her bottle. And we going to use Nan HA Gold 3 in the future.

The love of my 2yr old son – My son never had a problem, had all the nutrients that he needed. He had all the stages from Nan Gold 1, 2 and now he is on stage 3HA until he is 3. I know this formula may not suitable for all babies, but certainly it is great product for my son. Pay good attention when you prepare your baby's milk, make sure the measurement when you prepared it… Read more

is not less or more , both water and formula. That can make your child constipated of diarrhoea ....

Horrible – My baby was on NAN HA on top of breast milk since 2 weeks of life, she has been gassy at times..we never thought there is problem with the formula until 6weeks of life, we put her on fully formula on NAN HA, it was the worst nightmare ever..my baby had explosive greenish super smelly poo, projectile vomiting around 3 times per day, cranky and… Read more

crying in pain, we tried to give her gripe water, dentinox, not help much at all..until we came across the bad reviews in this website and we decided to withhold it and switch it to morinaga soy based formula milk. So far there is no vomiting, definitely won't go back to nestle formula milk at all!

Contains Nanoparticles – Be wary of this product. It contains nanoparticles and discussions are underway with experts regarding its safety - http://www.smh.com.au/business/consumer-affairs/study-finds-potentially-toxic-nanoparticles-in-australian-baby-formula-20170622-gwwb2j.html. I used it with both my children several years ago and it concerns me deeply that I may have been feeding them a dangerous product. Choose a different formula for your baby.

stinky and greenish – Not good at all !Used Nan. HA for first year only, then switched to Bellamy's. huge change!! My baby would get constipated on the Nan but not on Bellamy's.My baby's poos were stinky and greenish on the Nan but much more tolerable and normal looking on Bellamy's. It's a bit more expensive but I only go back to the Nan if my supermarket is out of Bellamy's.

Best for my baby – The formula is super easy to prepare and comes with a scoop that can levelled off on a ridge inside the tin. We tried different formulas but this was the one I found met her needs and agreed with her. No side effects other than she loves her bottles! Maybe too mcuh!

Horrible wind and so unsettled!! – We changed from nan pro gold to nan ha for our 4week old as we were told it's easier for babies to digest, worst mistake ever!! She is so clingy, fussy, gassy and screams in pain most of the time plus won't settle during the day, she won't take a full bottle like she use to and gets reflux. Her farts and poos stink so bad and she gets such bad… Read more

trapped wind I'm constantly having to bicycle her legs to help her move it. Have changed back to nan pro gold fingers crossed this fixes it, its horrible seeing your baby girl in so much pain and so unsettled

Great product – My newborn loves this formula. We got the recommendation from St. john of God, subiaco to use it and found it to be working perfectly for my baby. The best thing with this formula is baby don't spill the milk. This formula is worth giving a try. Overall, I am very satisfied.

Unsettled and facial rash – Changed my 5wk old over to Nan after knowing S26 was renowned for constipation... worst thing we ever did! Unsettled for 4 days, green poo, wind pain (constantly pulling knees up to chest with pain), smelling farts, wouldn't finish the bottles and wouldn't sleep during the day due to being so unsettled and clingy!! She also got the worst case of… Read more

baby acne on her face!! Went back to S26 on day 4 at lunch time, she skilled the whole thing and then had another full bottle two hours later and a late night dream feed two hours after that, completely settled, slept through the night, and rash cleared completely.

Wind pain – Used Nan Ha with my daughter 2 years ago so when weaning my son I used the new updated Nan Ha probiotic thinking it would be the same. How wrong was I! He was continuously unsettled with terrible wind pain. He went from waking once overnight to waking 6 times a night. He was hungry all that time but would only drink 50ml of the bottle and be in so… Read more

much pain he wouldn't finish the rest. After reading the hundreds of bad reviews all confirming that the formula was causing the wind pain I switched him to Nan comfort. He is much happier, finishes his bottles and is sleeping much better. Very disappointed considering the price I paid for the premium formula.

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE – Green runny poo nappies can't even catch the amount of runny green water. Stomach cramps after a feed. Unsettled baby during the night. Won't settle unless he is clingy onto me with pain. Lots of wind during feeds also making it hard to bring up wind. Reflux after every feed. I have no idea why this is $10 more expensive than Nan comfort… Read more

or other brands. I wish I had of looked at reviews on this the private hospital reccomended the formula and I'll be complaining to my lactating consultant.

5 weeks of absolute misery – After using Nan HA gold for my first child with success I had no hesitation to start my second child on it. Worst thing I could have done. I trusted this new improved formula would be the same as the old HA, but after 5 weeks of a baby projectile vomiting on every piece of furniture and clothing in my house, dark green foul smelling poo explosions… Read more

and the worst gas ever, I trusted my instincts and stopped giving it to her. I was in tears every day and thought something was wrong with my baby. I almost nearly put her on medication. Nestle state that the new, improved formula has no major changes, but I beg to differ.

Should be recalled from the market – Unfortunately, there isn't a zero star rating so I could gave to this product. Green runy nappy, only once every three days. The baby is screaming from the pain in his stomach. The only slightly good thing is little reflux compare to the Nan pro gold. I will return back to the pro gold or I will check another product as the pro gold make him… Read more

reflux alot. Maybe it can work with other babies but thats my experience with this product.

It's the first time I regret to buying a Germain product. We thought its good Germain product especially its pricy and one of the most expensive in the market.

Bring back NAN H.A. 1 Gold – My 2 week old baby, has been on this new formula since birth and has been so unsettled and is still very constipated, I originally used the old formula with my other child (who is now 2 yrs old) with no problems at all. I'm very disappointed with this new formula and have had to change to another brand, which is more gentle on babies tummies.… Read more

Don't understand why they would change the original formula with a formula, that is obviously affecting babies, parents are meant to be enjoying these first few weeks but I have found them very upsetting.

Works for my baby – I've had to give my baby Nan HA Gold since birth. Never had any issues with the product. I've recently transitioned to the new version of this formula. Again, no issues for my baby. I'm only rating the product 3 stars due to the price increase which, after speaking with Nestle, appears to be based on greed rather than a change in ingredients.

Very upset with change in formula – I have a 5 week old newborn whom I was feeding the original ha formula with no problems. Since nestle changed formula she has had terrible reflux, constant stomach aches, constipation, green poos and been hard to settle after feeds. I am terribly disappointed in nestle and am changing brands

My son is now extremely snuffly and congested – My son Is 11 weeks old seemed happy on the NAN HA Gold.This version is $10 more and my son is so congested through the night i feel the need to surround him with euky bear rub to try and clear his head a bit. We will be changing formulas.

dissapointed is and understatement!! – Since changing formula to the ha optipro stage 1 my baby does not sleep have runny poo and has screem outbursts in pain pretty much when i contacted them i was told bad luck the product stays there studies show its better aparently thats all that matters not a mother's opinion i no im only one customer but youve lost me.

New NAN HA Optipro formula is terrible – Since starting my toddler on the new NAN HA Optipro 3 formula my little boy has been so upset, crying constantly with poo pain. He is now constipated and has broken out in a rash and won't sleep through the night anymore. I don't know why they would change the formula as it was fine before. Now I have to look for another brand. Might try Karicare HA.

HA Optipro Gold what a disaster!! – Very disappointed with the change my 8 month old ended up in hospital from dehydration from diarrhoea it caused. It also caused my 2yr old to have diarrhoea and stomach pain and she loves her milk but stopped drinking it. As soon as we found the old tins ha gold they were fine. Definitely will be changing fomulas. I've used nan for the last 5yrs with my kids and never had any troubles with it till now. why would they change it.

Perfect for my baby – First I tried Nan. Ha gold, which doesn't have a vvery good review here. he was fine but he used to vomit it straight a way. Then I tried aptamil, he got so constipated. I looked at the reviews here and decided to use novalac colic.But, not only it doesn't help with the constipation but also he was vomiting again.So, I tried S26 lactose free… Read more

which has a good review here.but he was constipated again and I had to drop some medicine in his bottle each time . Finally, I regret trying those formulas that have a good review here and started using the first one again, Nan Ha gold. but this time I trtried to give him less than the amount I used to give him before.He has been fine. I think the reason of vomiting was because I used to overfeed him. As I do both breast feeding and formula its tricky to guess how much formula he needs. Another good thing of Nan Ha gold is that it has omega3 and omega 6 which other formulas dont.

Not at all happy – I am extremely annoyed that a company would change a formula that a baby is used to, and to make it $10 more expensive is outrageous. Not at all happy and won't be buying it. Will be changing to another brand. A well known and much used brand should not do this especially the ridiculous price.

Not happy – I have used Nan HA Gold with both my babies and now find out, I can no longer buy it and is replaced with optipro HA Gold which is more expensive, and not as good. Please change it back or reduce the price or We will be changing to another brand as not happy as a long time user.

The change was for the worst – This new optipro formula has not only effected the price, which is bad enough especially being on a budget with a one income family. But it has been so difficult when it comes to feeding my son. Its like he doesn't like the taste of the optipro formula. We will be changing to a new formula.

What was nestle thinking??? – Since writing the review below we found the old HA gold formula nd put our son back on it. His excessive vomiting, crying, wind and behaviour changes have stopped and he is back to normal. His behaviour has returned back to the happy smiling baby he was before. We've been back on it for a few days now. Definitely wasn't reflux. Going back to… Read more

original formula has proven this to us.

, Like the reviews before us, we too have a 14 week old who has been happy since birth feeding on HA gold. We were caught by surprise when we couldn't purchase it anymore but had to get the new formula instead. Our baby has been vomiting yellow after every feed, which he never did before, and he is grizzly and not sleeping well. Total disaster! What were they thinking? Bruno it back please!

My baby loves this! – My baby's been on ha since birth, we never had issues with this formula, poop's fine, no tummy aches and no reflux issues. I tried to change to a different ha gold formula but she had a very bad rashes and her whole body turned red from head to toe so i ran her to the ER straight away only to found out it was from the formula, since then i just… Read more

use nan ha formula. My baby loves it, she's putting on weight gradually, very active and have a regular bowel motions.

Not happy with the change – My bub has been on formula since we left the hospital we tried a few but nan ha gold 1 is the one that she likes and help with her colick. Now it wasn't the cheepest before but now with the new formula its gone up buy about $5 in my town I called up to see what the difrence was and I got told that not much changes at all at all but the price as… Read more

gone up because you spent a lot of time and money on developing the new formula of the formula.so now I have to get my 11 week old use to new formula and spend the extra money for something that is close to what it was bfor

Unhappy – My daughter is 12 weeks old now and this is the formula that she has been on since birth and everything was going great she was eating well and sleeping great, then these new changes come in and its gone down hill from there, vomiting and yellowy green water poo that just runs out after every feed.

Terrible Product – My daughter has been on this product since she was 8 weeks old, she started vomiting large amounts during and after every feed (doctors just told us reflux) I don't believe it as it doesn't upset her, she's had extreme wind pain and gas pain, very stinky farts and nappies, liquid green poo and a bloated tummy. Only now at 4 months old have I… Read more

realised that this formula is the reason why! I wish I had of read these reviews before we started it. I will be changing her over to a new formula today. And hope that she will start to feel better!
