I think DS has an intolerance to his formula, he's currently taking Enfamil Soy as he reacted to regular formula (full body rash, diarrhea, diaper rash) exactly the same way his sister did and the Soy formula has worked perfectly.
The past few days, DS has had gross, foul smelling (not the normal smell) diarrhea, mucousy, and his diaper rash is awful. He's having a BM probably 4 or 5 times a day. Normally his BM's are almost solid and dark. I remember the smell (sorry, tmi) from DD's diapers that prompted us to put her on soy, and it worked great for her. Problem is, DS is on soy, now what do I offer him as a formula? He's not 8 months old yet.
He is eating lots of solids, but this is not the type of diarrhea he gets from a reaction to solids--that's usually runny, watery type. I do not suspect it's a food allergy, but a possible intolerance to his formula.
I'm in Canada. Can anyone recommend a different type of formula I can try? Or should I just take him to the pediatrician.....I don't know what to do.
Thanks.
