How long do you have to cook milk, cheese etc to change the protein?

DD is 7 months next week and is allergic to yogurt, cheese and cows milk. I've tried butter and margarines which she Is fine with. I'm guessing she won't be ok with ice cream. Without thinking (stupid I know) I have given her the odd bit of Yorkshire pud and baked goods that contain CMP in it and have noticed that she is ok. So I'm guessing she is ok with foods when the milk protein changes. IYSWIM.

Therefore I'm thinking of trying her on a dish that contains a cheese sauce but want to know how long to cook it for so it is safe for her to eat?? And the same goes for milk and yogurt?

Anyone with similar experiences, would love some advice.

TIA

DD is allergic to CMP but fine with baked milk (we did a challenge and have introduced it since then). The rule for us has been cooked at over 180 degrees for more than 20 mins. Apparently the protein changes from a 3D structure to a 2D one that the immune system no longer recognizes.

I haven't tried e.g. cheese sauce because I've sort of assumed (probably incorrectly) that something that was still liquid wasn't OK even if heated.

Does everyone do this? If your child is allergic to milk are they likely to be ok to baked milk then?

My baby is anaphylactic to milk but its severe so I avoid it. I got told proteins change in the process of cheese but hes still allergic to that.

DD hasn't reacted to foods when the milk has been baked! She had a nibble of a muffin that dd1 made and she didn't react. This was before I tried her with some yogurt which she came out in hives within minutes!! Same happened with cheese and a baby porridge that had dried milk powder in it.

Butter and Marg is fine and she has had no reaction to those!

She is ebf and seems to be ok with the fact that I have milk in my diet.

I've been told before I give her anything that I'm not sure about, to rub it on her arm first and if she doesn't come out in hives then she should be ok.

Bucket I wouldn't think about trying your DC on baked milk without discussing it with your consultant first. Many will be ok with baked products (DD has a very severe reaction to raw milk and is fine) but not all so it needs to be introduced under supervision.
