WCM digesting

How has your LO's digestive tract been handling transitions to WCM, soy milk or other? Have their BMs changed much? I'm trying to decide if DS should just be on soy milk or if he's ok with half WCM, half soy. He's having a bout of runny poos, and I thought it was just because he was eating grapes every day, but the number of grapes he's eaten the past few days has been minimal. He was on soy formula beforehand.

Side note, he's also been teething (again) and has had a runny nose for a few days too, which either I think could go with loose BMs. It's just like day four of this and I'm venturing into the does-he-have-a-virus territory.

Re: WCM digesting

  • DS was also on soy formula before switching to WCM. He's having loose stools some days and particularly hard stools others.... right now, loose... but he's also possibly teething with a runny nose & fever. We haven't had our 12 mo check up but it's on my list of things to talk about. I hope he gets regular soon!

  • I had to cut back on how much milk she was drinking. Her poops were super hard, little rabbit pellets. No bueno.
  • @saltylove yeah he was MPI. We transitioned to WCM about a month and a half ago, but it made him constipated (reverse of what I was expecting) so we backed off and now we're at 50/50 WCM/soy milk. He was fine at that for about a week. At this point I'm not sure if I should go straight soy or straight WCM. I'm not sure what's causing the loose BMs and I'm afraid to try one over the other and be wrong. He does great with other dairy. I'll be interested to hear what your allergist says.
