Hi Everyone,
Please can I get some guidance as I am worried sick!
LO is 4 weeks old. From just over a week old he has had spots on his cheeks and neck..doctor said they were hormonal but LO still has them and it looks more like it is getting more angry and more of a rash now. LO is also always windy/having trapped wind and having runny nappies (sometimes a bit dark green)- only in last week. He is also sounding wheezy and blocked up but definitely not a cold.
LO is bf but I am making the transition to ff from today. HV seems to think LO may be lactose intolerent or have CMPA. She said to try him on standard formula for a few days and then lactose free if symptoms persist and do a process of elimination.
Does anyone have experience of these symptoms and have any advice please? Would you recommend a specific formula? And do you think it may be worth while going straight onto lactose free? Bearing in mind I will be gradually dropping bf feeds.
I will be taking LO to see the doctor on Monday for medical advice too.
Thank you.
