Vegan formula
Hi! My 4 month old baby was crying nonstop since he was born and having horrible reflux. We went to a pediatric GI specialist and he was diagnosed CMPA and potentially multiple allergies. I cut out all dairy and soy from breast milk and he was still reacting horribly. They said his stomach was so messed up it could basically be triggered by anything so he may do better once healed in about 4-12 weeks. He ended up getting a feeding aversion and went from 96th percentile to 21 percentile currently. They had us switch to Neocate formula instead of breast milk so that we could mix it to a higher calorie ratio. He is just now doing SO MUCH BETTER. He will eat about 18-20 oz a day now!! For a long time he wouldn’t eat more than 10oz in 24hours. I’m just wondering if anybody has ever tried the sprout vegan formula instead of a fully hydrolyzed formula? It says it is completely free from dairy and soy and uses rice protein instead. I know goats milk doesn’t work for most true cmpa babies bc the proteins are still so similar to milk proteins. However this doesn’t seem to be the case for the vegan sprout formula. Just wondering if anybody has tried it out. I would really prefer not to keep him on the neocate for the entire year of his life. I have a years worth of breast milk saved in my freezer and hoping to get him back on that eventually and thought the vegan formula might be a good step. Thanks!
