Lactose tolerence

Question

18mths old have have been taking S26 with no issue, till recently he keep having dierreahea. So doc suggest  taking soy milk for this period and it stop. But end up not pooing for a few days. We tried giving him goat milk, no issue too, this time he poo once every few day. So we thought switching him back to s26 since everything seems back nor. However his dierreahea came back.Any thoughts on this, mummies?#adviceplease

My toddler went through something similar, mummy 😊 He was fine on formula for a long time, then suddenly started having diarrhoea after drinking it. Our PD mentioned that temporary lactose intolerance can happen, especially after a tummy bug. Since the diarrhoea came back when you restarted S26 but not with soy or goat milk, I'd check back with your PD before switching again. It might be worth giving his tummy a bit more time to recover ❤️
