What are you allergic too..? symptoms?

What would the symptoms be if my infant were allergic to iron?

  • My child spits up a TON...he always has since day one...He is now 8 months old. He has had his upper GI tract looked at and it was all normal. Could he be allergic to iron? The spitting up has gotten worse and worse. He was on similac advance w/ iron and now he is on a dairy free, lactose free, soy free diet formula, w/ iron. (it is not helping at all and he is still spitting up a ton). If any one knows what it is like to be allergic to iron pleas let me know the symptoms. My 8 month old has stopped gaining weight and has even lost some. I desperate to find out what is going on. Thanks

  • Answer:

    I had to put my son on Good Start, his little tummy couldn't digest all the iron in the other formulas, and he would spit up. But definitely see another pediatrician, somethings not right.

It could be something else entirely you should see another doctor ASAP. A baby should never lose weight I don't care what any doctor says. You can try iron fortified or try iron free. If that doesn't work get a new pediatrician
