I have a 8 week old, when eating he screams in pain, kicking his legs and I can hear his stomach making sounds and he has a stool every feeding, sometimes two. His doctor put him on soy milk for gas 2 weeks ago. The pains is not every feeding, twice a day. Any suggestions.

Babies till the age of 6 months is supposed to be on exclusive breastfeeding. It's common for children to pass stools after every feeds which is due to hyperactive gastrocolic reflux.
If there is no signs of dehydration and there is no distention of abdomen there is no cause for concern.
Take care
