Could not having as many of my antibodies through breast milk cause eczema to apear?

My son is three months old and about a month ago I started feeding him formula while I was at school and breast feed him when I am home. About two weeks ago he came up with a pretty bad case of eczema, could this be showing up now because he is not getting as many antibodies from my breast milk as he was before or is this just coincidence?

I think you should ask the doctor more questions about the formula that you are giving him cause i was talking to crystal and telling her… and she asked if you were still nursing and i told her he was on boobies and formula and she said that caleb had it pretty bad to on formula and she said you really should consider good start! idk y but may be you should talk to her. does he still spit up a lot? oh and she thinks it awesome that you take him to the ciro! she says it help sooooooooooooooo much with caleb she might not have made it through his first 2 years
well call me when you get up
Skin conditions such as eczema, are largely genetic. They also are commonly connected to respiratory issues so keep an eye on that. I breastfed boy my kids exclusively and my youngest still has asthma and had mild eczema for the first couple of years.
Are you positive it is eczema? Like a doctor diagnosed it? If not, it could just be Cradle Cap which many babies get.
