My 7 mo DD has ezcema, not v bad but it is worse over the past week. Could be the warm weather, could be that we used sun lotion, could be that I regularly eat fish as part of my diet. Sometimes a break out coincides with my fish intake, sometimes not....
Has anyone proved a fish allergy by following an exclusion diet? I'd be happy to do this, but the trouble is that she is mix fed and there are fish oils in all formula apart from soy and goats milk formula. She's a reluctant bottle feeder anyway so I don't want to create even more issues by significantly changing the taste of what she consumes and neither of those two formula are recommended unless under medical supervision. My GP is doing the "it's baby eczema, she'll grow out of it.. or not" line. Fantastically useful, thanks.
There is fish allergy on one side of the family but neither myself, my DH or my DD1 are allergic. We've not tried her with any fish as part of her weaning as yet.
If you suspected a fish allergy how long did you wait before trying it as part of weaning, and have you had any success excluding it, while using normal formula?
