DS has an intolerance to milk/lactose? and gluten. He used to be able to have goats milk/cheese but we went on holiday for a few weeks, and he didn't have these, and now we're back, he gets diahorrea/stomach pain when he has them.
As a milk alternative he has rice milk (soya milk gives him terrible diahorrea). However, he's now down to 2 v.short bf's a day and I want to increase his milk/calcium intake. Is rice milk nutritionally OK for an 18m old? Is there a formula version?
When we gave him the goats milk after the holiday it has given him a few patches of excema (which he used to have before we stopped dairy products). Does this indicate an allergy or an intolerance?
Saw GP 2 weeks ago about it, and he admitted that he didn't know anything about it (I probably knew more than him, but I'm playing v.dumb as I want to hear what they think), but said that if I gave him a bit of time he'd read up on it. Fingers crossed he has!
