Transitioning baby to milk

[Guest guest]

I have a question from a friend that I thought had been dealt with

before but I couldn't find it in the archives.

Her daughter is 13 months old and was on soy formula. Now she is

trying to get her on to whole milk. The first time she gave it the

child vomited. She waited a week and the same thing happened. If

she adds a little extra milk to something like mashed potatoes the

baby does fine and she can also tolerate other dairy products. When

she told the pediatrician she was told to give the baby soy or rice

milk but she would rather use cow's milk. Any advice?

Thank you,
