I guess I’m looking for some stories of moms who have switched from EBF to formula due to protein intolerances in your baby.

My baby improved greatly when I cut out dairy and soy but I noticed some flare ups were still happening. Whittled it down and I’m thinking it’s eggs. But honestly, I’m tired of trying to figure this out.. it’s taking up a lot of mental energy and I’m becoming obsessive trying to figure out what else is bothering him. I’ve gone so far as to cut all sources of soy including soy lecithin and eating has become so anxiety inducing.

I love breastfeeding, I truly do. But if formula will be better for him and take the mental load off my shoulders then maybe it’s best? Would love to hear from other moms!
