My son is 5 weeks old and has been on neocate for a milk protien allergy for 1.5 weeks. Previously tried Alimentum and elimination diet while breastfeeding. His symptoms are mucus in stool and fussiness. The mucus and fussiness are still present. He had small bits of blood on two occasions previously, once while on Alimentum and once while breastfeeding, none since starting neocate. Is this normal, when should his symptoms improve?? Is it possible he has something else that is causing his symptoms?? His sister also had a milk protein allergy and did well on Alimentum
