Do they need more soy milk then cow's milk??
Colin has a milk allergy. I tucked away the pump a little over a week ago. Colin gets soy milk by day and I still nursing him morning and night (but I feel like it's a comfort thing because I don't feel he's satisified at all by those sessions).
He was getting 3 6oz bottles of BM on work days (along with 2 nursing sessions). This doesn't seem to be enough soy milk. When we were on vacation, I wasn't paying much attention, but he seemed to be taking 4-5 6oz bottles a day.
So should I do 3 7oz or 8 oz bottles? I can't imagine giving more than 3 bottles at this age.
Do they fill up less from soy vs. cow's milk??

I would ask ped.
Josh's ped wanted soy completely given on a limited basis.
good luck

Why? When I learned he had a milk allergy they told me I should give him soy at a year. What are my alternatives?
He does have his 1-yr well visit Friday so I will ask the ped then too.

I gave soy when he was weaned. Ped only wanted 2 sippy cups a day max, he said it is too much estrogen for little boys...he said he prefers girls not over do it either.
