You may be successful in raising your baby vegan, and there are many websites addressing this topic such as www.vegfamily.com. However, there have been many high-profile cases where babies died from being switched over to a vegan diet. Babies need a very high fat diet with plenty of calories to support growth, and they also need certain vitamins such as B12 that are not often found in vegan foods. Soy milk specifically is much lower-fat than traditional formula, so it may not provide enough nutrition for your baby. It is extremely difficult, expensive, and time-consuming to raise a baby on a vegan diet for the first few years of life.

It is not as healthful as breastmilk, but it will suffice.

What a have to do with my baby becaus he don't want drink soy milk anymore?

A lot more information is needed to answer this question properly; but if you are in fact referring to a baby up to one year of age, he should not be given soy milk in the first place. The current recommendation is to allow the baby to drink only breast milk or formula for the first year of life with breast milk being preferred when possible. Solids are to be added between 4 and 6 months depending on the baby's readiness, but cow's milk, soy milk, or juice should not be introduced until at least one year of age.
