Switching Formula....a Strange rash...and Baby Dandruff???

I have 2 questions. The first pertains to switching formula. I previously asked about brands and types of formulas to add into my 5 mo old's breastfed diet. I was giving him soy because I thought it might be he easiest to digest and based on all the responses I received, I've decided to switch to Good Start. Am I supposed to switch it gradually(like when switching dog foods??) or can I start the new formula right away? How will I know if he's allergic to dairy? I only give him 2-3 ounces every 24 hrs in addition to his breastmilk. I do this...

Allergic to Sunscreen

Help. My daughter is very fair skin and everytime I put sunscreen on her she breaks out in hives. She didn't have this problem last year and I have tried three different kinds already this year. Does anyone know of any hypoallegenic sunscreen, my daughter loves the pool and with it opening next week, I would hate to have her miss out.

Soy Protein Allergy

I have an 8 week old son who is solely breastfed. He is in the 97% for weight and 50% for height. I cant help but think, however that he is allergic to something that is being passed through my breastmilk. He has several bouts of crankiness and has a rash on his thighs, upper back and face. We went to the doctor yesterday and he said it was just a baby rash and that I shouldnt worry about it. I still think something else is wrong. I do not eat dairy or wheat products as I am lactose and wheat intolerant. I was hoping with this diet,...
