DS (6 months) is exclusively breastfed and has developed fairly severe (IMHO!)eczema over the past few months. We're currently waiting for dermatology review as he's not really responding to GP treatment.
He's had a very slow/static weight gain since he was 2 months old, although he feeds well and is content. He's also a poor sleeper, although his current flare up isn't helping! I seem to recall reading that these 2 factors plus the eczema, could indicate other allergies - poss dairy. So until we see dermatologist, I'm weaning him dairy free.
I'm going out tomorrow night and have been trying to express incase he needs milk whilst I'm out, but have gained a measly 2oz over the past week! Would either soya formula or the one you can buy over the counter at Boots (sorry, can't remember name) be suitable to leave for dh? My sister has both as she tried them recently with her dd, so I can get hold of either to try. I know he might turn his nose up, but it would give dh a chance to try!
I really want to go out as it's a special evening for a friend and don't want to miss it.
