I realize now, that I cannot handle soy either. It's hard to find an infant formula without corn in it. I'm so glad that I went with my gut and didn't try formulas (regular or soy) the times my pediatrician suggested it. When she suspected the dairy allergy, the recommendation was to try soy formula (and pump for a week). I went to my allergist and got more information about eliminating dairy from my diet and what other things to try first. It was hard work, but worth it. It took us about 6 months to find corn once it was introduced into my daughter's diet. I'm SOOOOO glad that I didn't try the formulas because we would have had a big mess on our hands. As it was, we thought she was becoming sensitive to the soy milks when I was weaning. Turned out the one we were trying at the time had corn it! All of the other times I though I'd eaten some trace dairy were most likely due to corn products too. Sometimes, I just don't know what to feed her and we have to cut back and reintroduce things again. Usually I don't get any good conclusions and things seem fine again.
