baby is allergy to formula milk or breastmilk

Hi mummies, my baby is 4months now and suffers from eczema which started on her cheeks n eventually spread to arms n legs, I was told that shes having allergy, but not sure about the source, could be what I eat, thru breastfeeding (bottled day feed) which causes allergy , or formula milk ( night feed). She recommended some brands with HA , and my aunt recommend me isomil soy milk. Which is better ? Any recommendation? Or any advise on what could be the cause?

Some babies may be allergic to cow’s milk, soy, wheat, peanuts, gluten etc. It’s best if you can bring your baby to a PD to do a skin prick. My baby did hers at 4 months due to eczema too. I was exclusively breastfeeding her. It turns out that she is allergic to peanuts through the skin prick results and possibly tree nuts. I immediately cut all peanuts, almonds and walnuts from my diet and her skin became better within 2 weeks.
