Help with cow milk allergy

6 replies

Afsana1 · 30/07/2012 02:24

My dd is 15 weeks and I believes she has a cow milk allergy took her to the doctor she agreed was going to prescribe but changed her mind when she saw the price. She has forwarded me to the hospital but the appointment is in September and dd is suffering quite bad. Her skin is terrible no matter how much steroid cream I use nothing helps, her poo is all over the place and she is so fussy during and after feeds. The thing is I have seen the hypoallergenic milk on eBay and it is much cheaper than what you buy it for do you think I should buy it from there and which one? Any help is appreciated thank you very much xxx

That's awful! I had the same experience, in the end was sent to the urgent care unit, the paed looked at me like I was crazy for being in his unit and said it sounded like an allergy.

I've posted a thread below, I have some pepti 1 if you'd like to try it.

Shocking! I wouldn't buy baby formula on eBay. I would try and see a different doctor and failing that I'd Buy from a chemist. Don't get soya formula, get neocate or Nutramigen, or pepti.
