milk protein allergy moms-transitioning to cow"s milk and changes in behavior?
we just started transitioning noah to cow's milk from elecare based on our ped advice. well it's been a weekof 2oz milk and 6 oz formula in every bottle and i feel like he is a different kid. he is waking up super early 5am, and seems really cranky and has a runny nose. has anyone seen changes in kids behavior from starting milk?

Sorry, I have no BTDT advice because we aren't transitioning to milk, but the behavioral changes and runny nose would be a red flag that he's still sensitive or allergic to it. I would bring it up with the ped.

If he was on elacare I wouldn't be giving him cow's milk. I would give soy or almond milk.

Runny nose definitely sounds like allergy. My DD always got a runny nose when exposed to cows milk.

we noticed minor runny nose and crankiness but then realized he was also cutting 4 incisors  and now a month later, 2 molars 
could it be teething related? also similar symptoms.
any changes in BMs?

his gastro was the one who told us to start milk after his first birthday and i waited longer than that. my dd had the same problem but we transitioned her to soy milk.
i took him off the milk yesterday, so we'll see how the week goes.
