Dc 3 is following in the footsteps of his siblings and being intolerant to things in my diet. I have excluded dairy and wheat. His reflux seems to be more under control but he is regularly having slimy nappies with 'bits' in and terrible wind which is keeping us up every hour of the night. He is 4 months old.
I contacted the dietician at the children's hospital since I have had previous connections there and sent her a pic of the kind of nappies we have been having. She showed a gastro and they want me to go in tomorrow to discuss things. The thinking is the bits are blood, indicating an allergy but they are very reluctant to advise any more dietary exclusions, and would prefer instead he went of hypoallergenic formula to find out if it is allergy.
I am really reluctant to do this! With dc 2 I was excluding lots from my diet and I was fine other than bruising more easily. I bf the other 2 for a year each.
What do you think/ experiences? Any reading I can do on the relative benefits/risks of continuing bf?
