after a bad rash coming, going, and then staying around cole's mouth i finally figured out what was wrong with him. cole has an allergy to cows milk. it's his first allergy and luckily it wasn't too awful of a reaction. however, because it wasn't awful it took me awhile to catch on to it. after adding up his behaviors over the past two weeks since he had been drinking it, i realized it had to be the milk. i called the doctor and told him about the symptoms (not sleeping through the night, extremely fussy, loose stools, "spit up" several times, and the rash) he told me to take him off right away. i have started him on soy milk and so far he seems to be doing ok on it and loves it. i didn't take a picture of how bad the rash was, but you can see it going away a little in these pics.

He's still cute! Rash and all.
And you can also use rice milk (which tastes better to me) or goat's milk if you want to avoid the phyto-estrogens in the soy milk.
Or you can ignore my assvice! :)
