Soy Formula as Alternative to Cow Milk
Many parents, upon discovering their baby's cow milk allergiesturn to soy-based formula as alternative. However, while this strategy might work for some, many kids who have cow's milk allergy are also allergic to soy milk. Aside from this, I personally have reservations on using soy-based milk, knowing soy's estrogenic effects and that it is being used in hormone replacement therapy for menopausal women.

Mark's Daily Apple discusses this in further detail along with other possible harmful effects of using soy as a food source for children.
