No, when I first had my son, he spit up EVERYTHING. Breast milk, soy formula, soy milk, rice fortified lactose free formula, regular rice fortified formula, regular formula, everything. The only thing that help was actually rice cereal which I started him on at 3 months. No one likes a child who wakes up every hour because they are hungry, can't keep anything down, and can't sleep. Totally draining.
Walgreen's has these colic tablets that dissolve almost instantly in liquid. Now, my son didn't have colic, but it seemed to help him a little. I would drop a few in his bottle a few times a day, and he seemed to keep it down a little longer than he usually did. I don't remember what they are called, but they are little white pills in a bottle, but the bottle came in a box package (of course), and they were relatively inexpensive, a few dollars a bottle. You may want to give those a try. They are in the baby section. Good luck.

Yes, loads. At first my son was on Similac with Iron (because that's what the hospital gave us), but he would spit half of it up after every bottle, and had these terrible boughts of screaming. He would scream himself hoarse, and draw his legs up and tense his stomach muscles all up. Sometimes we could soothe him by holding him along our forearms, face down, but other times we would walk with him for hours and nothing helped. After two weeks, we switched to Isomil with Iron (Similac brand's soy formula) and all of the sudden he was sleeping at night, he held his bottles down, and he was going to the bathroom on a more regular basis.
He's 11 months old and now he is on ProSobee Lipil, and still doing great. I have not allowed him any cow's milk yet, and may wait even longer than the recomended year because I am afraid that he may be mildly lactose intolerant. Some of the other dairy items we have tried he has loved, but some of them he throws back up within ten minutes. If the regular cow's milk upsets his stomach, I plan to ask his pediatriction if a soy milk would be okay.

Yes, my little guy has to have it or we are ALL miserable! I even have to drink it so he isn't affected when he nurses. I did resort to soy for a while.... I liked the chocolate but the vanilla was not too good. He gets so gassy, spits up, cries & cries on the other stuff. the smell of the soy I don't like, but my 2nd son had to have it. My son can drink the Gentle Ease Enfamil without bad consequences too.

It may be best for the baby to have some other kind of milk, not cow's milk.

I used soy milk for my daughter as she kept spitting up the other types.
