My dd is now 10 months old, she has a milk allergy although i don't think its that bad. She can have milk in bread, cakes etc and can have a small amount of cheese but not yogurt, milk or any more cheese than 5 strands of grated cheese in a sandwich.
I've challanged her a few times and every time its the same she starts off with really bad diarrhea (so bad her bum gets red raw and her nappies don't contain it all) then she has a small rash around her mouth which eventually spreads to her neck and back (this sometimes appears after eating chocolate, bread, biscuits etc but not always) she will then start being sick and eventually shes wheezing and her skin on her hands and feet start peeling and going red raw. All this will happen over 3 days. (now I've written down what happens to her I think I want to change my mind about it not being that bad)
A few people have said that once she is 12 months old the dr will stop prescribing her neocate. I know I need to make an appointment to see gp to discuss what will happen next, but im really worried and wondered if anyone experience.
Will they really stop her milk? What will I give her?
I should also say initially she was on soya until the gp got his act together and accepted she had an allergy and also had similar to reactions to that after being on it for 4 weeks, so that's not an option either.
