How long do you stay on each section of the milk ladder?

[DingleBerries]

I know DS (6) is still allergic to raw milk but he’s tolerated malt biscuit for 3 days now.

We realise that this will stop somewhere along the ladder but we are keen to know where.

It’s an absolute miracle that he’s growing out of them (or so it feels to us!) because he has so so many allergies, many severe and the gastro doctor at St Thomas Hospital said he’s seen kids like DS before and “They end up losing all their foods.”

Of course the bottom of my world fell through then but it seems we are proving them wrong.

I digress.

Can anyone advise me on how long we spend on each section?

Did they give you any indication at all when they suggested you try the milk ladder?

I’m sure some will say 2 or 3 days but I have CMPA and I’d suggest being super cautious. I’d leave it for a time least 2 weeks on each stage before starting on the next one. Sometimes I can tolerate a little for a couple of days but it can have a sort of build up reaction where i’ll react after 3 or 4 days of having a little amount of the same thing.
