My baby and his poor belly aches

Rachel

We have a 7 week old son and have had him every which formula. We have tried gas drops, gripe water, colic calm. Nothing seems to help him and he just screams and screams. I guess you could say he is colicky. =( The doctor placed him on Enfamil Nutramigen (for those of you who may not know, it is for babies that have a milk AND soy allergy). It isn't helping at all!!! He is strictly bottle fed. I was not able to breast feed.=( The next step in my mind is to have the doctor put him on prescription formula. Maybe Nutramigen aa. DO any of you have ANY suggestions or advice?? Anything at all! We are dying here! ANd the poor little guy is in pain. =( Thanks you!!!

YES!. my son have milk allergies, he has had them since he was born and he is 15 months old now and still has problems. We put our son on Similac Alimentum its for babies who are sensitive milk, enfamil does not have a product like this all theres is milk based. And when your son is a yr old they have enfagrow soy thats you can use or regular soy milk, thats what my son is on and he is doing good. The dr. told me not to use soy because he is not going to get all the protein he needs but its better then his stomach hurting and im sure he can get protein eleswere.
