Unfortunately, the only confirmed halal milk for babies we know is "Chirumiru" of Morinaga: from (9months to 3 years)(http://www.hagukumi.ne.jp /products/chirumiru/chirumiru .shtml)
The japanese sister, asked the maker Morinaga about "HAGUKUMI" suitable for newborn until 9 months, this is Morinaga answer:
"Lecithin is from soy bean, but unfortunately, Hagukumi contains enzyme from pork (or lard)."
The milk of Meiji is Haram (confirmed form ingredients).
All the other brands could not confirm if their products are halal. The japanese sister has asked both of Bean Stalk Snow (group comapny of Yukijirushi) and Wakoudou (group company of Asahi Beer) about their baby milk, unfortunately, their replies were not satisfactory.
Both of them said that as ingredients, haram materials are not included, but they do not have total control on the manufacturing process of their suppliers of ingredients. Enzyme or other ingredients may have been produced or extracted utilizing the material derived from pig.
Therefore they cannot guarantee if their products are halal and they request consumers who have religious restrictions shall not use their products.

I do not know if it is possible to import baby milk from Islamic countries but I think the muslim community here in Japan should consider this option since the only halal baby milk we know is "CHIRUMIRU" of Morinaga and it is only suitable for babies above 9 months.

I don't understand why do Japanese give milk that contains enzyme from pork to their tiny creature? What is the point of that?
Hi Fadoua
For them, it does not matter from where they get the ingredients, pork or anything else is the same for them.
soymilk only choice? import halal formula? listen to ourselves! is any1 going 2 suggest breastfeeding? Allah says VERY CLEARLY in surah Talaq: '...and if ye find yourselves in difficulty, ask another woman to suckle the child on the father's behalf.' dear sisters in japan. Allah has made life so easy for us women. either brstfeed your children or hand them over to some1 to wetnurse. if we try to outsmart the divine laws- it will catch up with us.

It is difficult in Japan to find someone to breastfeed your baby, but thanks for sharing your ideas with us.
That is not her ideas. It is what Allah has ordained us in the Quran
salam,
I have a 3 months old baby, next year we are going to send him to hoikuen because both of us will start our new semester in campus. we plan to give breast feeding at least until he's reaching 6 months through frozen breast milk, but unfortunately, the hoikuen refused to use breast milk (the frozen one). so, what do you think we should do? since almost all of formula milk for newborn until 9 months are haram (because some contains lard, or taurin)... do you have suggestion about what should we do?
thanks
Salam
How about asking the hoikuen if they accept to give him baby soy milk, this one is halal, may be they will accept.
One of my friends, she went every day around lunch time to the hoikuen to breastfeed her baby, of course the hoikuen gave her permission. So, I do not know if this option is possible for you.
I know it is difficult for you, I hope you can find a solution.
Salam , Thank for the efforts , I just wanna mention some spelling mistakes :
" A japanese (mulim) woman helped us to get more information .. baby milk (prouced) in Japan."
"..asked both of Bean Stalk Snow (group [comapny] of Yukijirushi) and Wakoudou.."
Wa Salam
