  It was pretty quick. I noticed a decrease in the eczema and nasal congestion within the first few days. DD stopped spitting up, cramping up and having GI issues within the first week. It seriously made G a whole new happy child!

  This. I noticed an immediate change in LO when we switched to Nutramigen from BF for his milk/soy protein allergy. The stools change was within a week or so, although they tell you to give it two weeks.

  Our pedi said a couple weeks for full effects, but we noticed an improvement in gassiness and general discomfort within a couple days. Now at 2 1/2 weeks on Neocate he's a completely different baby - sleeping better, less spit up, almost no gas, mucus is gone, etc.

  Within 24 hours, but it can take up to two weeks. DS was much happier and more comfortable after the switch!

  Thanks for the replies! 
  DS has been on it since Friday, and although he seems a bit more smiley, I think his stomach is still bit of a mess.  He is still spitting up quite a bit and seems uncomfortable with gas at times.  He also seems constipated.  Wondering if he needs something else or different reflux meds.  So frustrating...
