Are Rashes In Infants Caused Due To Formula Or Breast Milk?

Is milk rash on babies caused by formula milk or breast milk or either? My 9 week old son has had red spots or a couple of weeks now and sometimes they seem to get worse..I did mixed feeding before but for a while I have only been feeding him formula as he feels sick when he gets on my breast!..
