SUBJECT: HELP!! Allergic to soy formula, should I attempt Good Start?Won't take Alimentum.
I am breastfeeding my 6 month old son. I tried to switch him to soy formula and he got violently ill, ie, throwing up, lethargic, diahrea, etc.
I am wondering if he would do ok on Carnation Good Start since it is broken down. I do not know if his gas and fussiness is from my having dairy while breastfeeding, or what it is from...He has never had a milk based formula and I am scared that he will have the same reaction. My ped. is useless. She said to try the GS, but may have the same result as the soy. Said to try Alimentum, but the taste is horrible and he won't take it! He will not sleep at night because of the terrible gas, and I am breastfeeding!!! HELP!!
