Several of you have posted comments saying you used soy-based formula. Any thoughts/opinions on why soy-based vs. conventional formula?
Henry’s verrrrrrry gassy and we’re wondering if the 2oz of “regular” formula we give him per day is the culprit. We’re giving a soy formula a shot today, but I’ve been reading some mixed reviews of soy-based formulas online, so just curious to hear everyone’s experiences.
Hi Tricia,
We switched Sam to soy because he was very gassy and colicky. It made a big difference. That was 30 years ago, before Al Gore invented the internet, so I had only the pediatrician’s recommendation to go on. I remember that he stayed on soy for about a year, and then we gradually added cow’s milk and he was fine. I’m sure soy formulas have changed, so my information probably isn’t going to be very useful.
I’m glad things are improving. Henry is quite adorable.
