Is she lactose intolerant?

DD is nearly 10 months and bf. I've been using Oat Milk in her cereal as had a suspicion of intolerance/allergy (tried to wean her to formula in Jan and she came out in big hives under her chin). She can tolerate cheese and dairy in food. Today I gave her whole milk watered down (half milk half water) as advised by my GP. After about 2 spoons of Weetabix, she had diarrohea. I gave her one more spoon and it happened again.

Should I try again tomorrow but this time mix it with Oat Milk? Or just leave it for a while?

She gets 3 or 4 bf a day so not worried about her fluid intake.

Does it sound like intolerance or allergy? My GP doesn't seem to be taking me seriously, but as I am bf, it hasn't really mattered. Now I want to get to the bottom of it.

Thanks.

I would think intolerance. Weetabix was one thing that my DGS reacted in a similar way to. Maybe try a different porridge-y cereal?
