Formula bad ?

Question

I use enfamil th gold kind I noticed my baby breaks out with a lot of eczema n red patches on his face so I switched it to non milk based th green one he's still getting redness on his face any suggestions? I breastfeed him but haven't been able to pump enough milk so need formula for when he's away from me?

Answer

Have your doc test for microblood in a dirty diaper... this will tell you if it's milk or soy allergy... you have to stop eating all dairy too if you're breastfeeding... you would be surprised what has dairy in it so read labels carefully.. finally enfamil doesn't make the greatest milk free formula... try Elecare

Answer

Put breast milk on his face

Answer

Try Holle or Lebenswert. American formulas have so many unnecessary, disgusting ingredients so it’s possible your baby is reacting to them. My son’s skin improved drastically after I switched him to Lebenswert.

Answer

Have you tried any creams or lotions for his skin? My dr said that it’s common this time of year for “winter skin” that causes more redness in their faces and dry patches. I’ve used Vaseline on my daughter and I’ve noticed things have been much better. 
But, it could be related to his diet too. I️ would have him tested by your pediatrician

Answer

since it didn't improve with the formula change its probably not caused by the formula
