Hello, I have a situation that I am concerned about and want to see if I can get some input. I am working with a mom whose 7 month old baby appears to have low muscle tone and a weak suck. Mom has been struggling with milk supply and lately has been separated a lot from babe because of numerous things going on in her life which has only made the milk supply issue worse. The last few times I have seen this mom and babe, the baby has been sucking on a bottle with either juice or soy milk. Babe also eats three meals of solids at this point. I am unsure how much time this baby is spending at the breast and am very concerned about the amount of soy milk she might be getting. Mom will not give the baby formula. I searched the archives and found info about toddler's and soy milk, not babies under a year. My question is how appropriate is this as a supplement?
