Babies: 0 - 3 Months

soy formula issues

My DD is going to be 2 months on Thursday and lately he's been super gassy, still spits up and his bms are either hard or looser..on top of being coated with mucus. Everyday hell scream and then I'll plop him on my chest and out flies spit up. He struggles to push out gas and its odd his poop is full of mucus. Formula suggestions? Gerber gentle made him very constipated.

Re: soy formula issues

  • I would call the pedi especially because of the mucus in the poop. Maybe he is MSPI (milk-soy protein intolerant)? L was but we didn't know until we tried soy and she screamed for 24 hours and had hard poops. We took her off of it immediately. She is now on enfamil nutramigen. It's hypo-allergenic formula for babies with a cows milk protein intolerance.

    Nice to know we're not alone. This is us except baby was pooping green slime 510 times per day on soy. Seems like he tolerated it worse than the milk. We started nutramigen today so here's hoping it works.
