dietician has recommended soy but I have discovered this product today and wondered if it was a no- no - dietician is unavilable to check with. Really need some help tonight - gotta get some milk into her x

my dd has been having soya the last few months for same, i tried her on the lactofree first and it made no difference, but she has had quite a severe reaction to dairy. has she had sma and the soya sma as they claim that all t their milks taste the same. if she is not drinking the soya it might be worth trying, is she 17months? cause at that age it probably doesn't matter for a few days if she doesn't have milk if she is eating and drinking other fluids. i think it depends on what part of the dairy is causing the intolerance whether or not the lactoferee would be ok. At the end of the day, you know your child best, if it is a real prob, could you ring nhs direct?

Thanks Wolf girl but she is under the care of a consultant and dietician and it is really helping. Mixing the Soy is working. x
