My son is eight weeks old and exclusively breastfed. He has eczema, developed silent reflux and had weels on his skin shortly after feeding. His eyelids would also swell and go red. I've been dairy free for a few days now and the silent reflux has gone , and his skin is improving but I have noticed he seems to be in pain after I've eaten things containing soya. I think he may have an allergy to soya too.
My DD had a milk protein allergy so I'm fairly familiar with that but I don't know much about what to avoid with soya allergy. Does bread contain soya? How about tortillas? I'm drinking rice milk and using pure sunflower spread. Any suggestions as to what I can eat on a milk/soya free diet? Thanks in advance.
