Anyone cut out soy and notice a change in their LO's eczema? My daughter has a confirmed dairy allergy (soy tested negative), but I am wondering if my soy intake is making her eczema so bad. Just wanted to see if anyone had any experience with this? Thanks!

Re: Soy and eczema
Eczema can be triggered by something in your diet if you are breastfeeding. Dairy and soy are two of the most likely foods that can cause it. I am thinking that even though my daughter tested negative to soy allergies, she probably does have one. She was tested at 3 months old, so the test may not have been conclusive due to her age.
If you google food allergies and eczema, there is a lot of information out there. Here is just one link.

What kind of formula would they have you switch to? Formula is dairy or soy based right? What else would you give LO?
Hypoallergenic formulas, such as Similac Alimentum.
A pediatric allergist tested her with a skin and blood test. I would call a pediatric allergist instead of going through your pedi.
