100 google searches later, I still see no mention of an otherwise lactose tolerant child having diarrhea when switched from breast milk/formula to whole milk.
I've made the switch gradually over the past couple of weeks, but this week is the first where he has had whole milk exclusively. This is the first week where Chris and I had to deal with a baby with tummy woes and a footie pajama toe full of poo every morning. All I have to say is Calvin is clean! With at least a bath a day it's hard not to be.
It's all I could think of, so we dug through the cabinets this morning for the last can of promotional formula (thanks Similac) and he went to school with full-on formula today.
The nurse also confirmed this is likely the problem. This makes no sense to me as the formula we have given him is milk based and he eats yogurt and cheese on a daily basis. But we will try again next week, one ounce at a time, cuz the poop don't lie.
