My ds has just turned 2 and has only ever bf, which don't get me wrong is great however I feel it needs to change. I don't feed him during the day anymore however during the night he can wake-up up to 6 times for feeds!! I have no alternative to give him milk wise as he's anaphylactic to dairy, milk, lactose and he doesn't like the taste of soya milk, rice dream or any of the others (the new prodict lactofree is no good either as it contains 0.05% lactose, even such a small amount would trigger an attack). I've tried him on every kind of bottle/teat possible and he just doesn't respond and to be fair I don't want him going on a bottle at 2yrs old either. I am slowly but surely coming to the end of my tether re no sleep and really think it must be no good for my ds either.
Has anyone been in the same situation?? What did you do?? Anyone out there with a child who has the same allergy - what would you suggest. I'm not at all worried about the calcium intake as he takes supplements.
I would really love to hear your suggestions, experiences and useful advice.
Many thanks
