Were you ever told your baby had colic and it was something else? How old was your baby?

My baby is 5 months old. He cried non stop from when he was born. He was also vomiting alot. I kept going to the doctor who kept saying it's colic. I told the doctor I'll switch him to soy formula to see if it makes a difference and she discouraged me. Afew weeks ago I felt like I'm gonna snap, I switched him exclusively to soy formula and he's a different baby!!!! We saw a difference within a day. He's bh happy, bh mostly sleeping through the night! No more non stop crying! I guess that he's sensitive to dairy. Doctors like to blame everything on colic because it's an easy answer. I saw that my baby was in pain, I knew it's probably not colic. His cries were hysterical.

Yup.
Turns out hes allergic to a bunch of stuff. I have to shrink down my diet. I cant give him formula because he's allergic.

What is he allergic to in the formula? There's hypoallergenic formula & neocate that's supposed to be good for highly allergic babies.

Which one? Some of them cause major reflux in our experience (neocate). We found elecare more gentle although still was not tolerated well
