Hi

Can I ask if you came up with a decision about whether you thought the soy yogurt was causing an allergic reaction in your l.o?

My daughter who is 9 months old has just been put onto a soy formula by a paed dietician in the last 2 weeks as we are querying a dairy allergy. From that first day we switched formula the greatest change we noticed was she immediatly started sleeping through the night, something she hasnt done in 4 months and something we had not considered might be related to an allergy. She slept through for a week and then started waking again (much to my disappointment!) However, as we are keeping a food diary I have looked back on what she ate on those days and have possibly linked it to either rye bread or soy yoghurt. (I am desperately hoping it is not just her randomly waking and is somehow linked to food, it's easier to change!)

I also noticed it was the same brand as you used and it was with the nectarine and the mango and peach flavours (I havent tried the others). I dont know if it could be additives (I have thrown the cardboard box away) or if, like you, are wondering if the yogurt might be stronger than the formula and therefore causing a reaction. She also had the red rash around her mouth and chin which she has had quite a bit recently but I couldnt decide if it was related to food or the fact she is teething and constantly has her hands or a toy in her mouth. I thought it might be food but my DH had convinced me otherwise. Your post has now got me wondering about it and whether it is a reaction I need to think more carefully about. The dietician told me that many people with a dairy allergy also have a soy allergy.

Have you tried the yogurt again?
