Desperate for Allergy Answers

This might seem crazy..but I have had ZERO luck at the pediatrician and allergist finding a solution for my 20 month old son. I thought I would turn to you moms instead. My son has been experiencing a rash all over his body, huge dark circles under his eyes, diarrhea (8-10 dirty diapers a day) and a runny nose (clear) for over a month now.

Neocate or Nutramigen?

My daughter has been exclusively breastfed for six months. However, I am 8 weeks pregnant again and I am having a hard time meeting her demands.

We switched him to Neocate formula for 2 weeks and I eliminated all dairy, soy and eggs from my diet (I'm also a vegetarian and drink only water and rice milk - no juice). We began breastfeeding again this past Friday and he's got diarrhea again (he'll be 6 weeks on Sunday). I'm now removing wheat, corn and nuts in addition for sure but I may try a...
