So we think dd may be dairy intolerant.
To put as simply and not long winded as poss. Always had loose poo on formula.. Tried nutramegen but she refused point blank to drink it. Gp said we'll being as dhev was gaining weigh nicely as wasn't uncomfortable then just stick to what we had.

Weaning came about.. All fresh veg etc. And baby porridge for breakfast.

Last week started varying more.. And eat what we do.. And didnt give much thought.
Mon and Tues Inc through out the days. Had included cauliflower cheese.. Fromage frsise. Cheese with pasta. And a mini rice pudding.. = 10 loose poo in two days.

So from yesterday.. Only dairy she had was the formula and porridge.. 1 loose poo last night.. Today has been back to her normal ones sorry tmi..

So have written a detailed diary but wondering whether to try a bit of extra dairy tomorrow or wait till Monday?

If she reacts again, then I'll return to gp with the diary of food.

If it turns out she is what's foods are best?. Where's good places to buy from?

Ah- fair point! Didn’t realise you were egg free too.

Re dairy free, Pizza Express and ZiZi do fantastic dairy free pizza- it’s the only one Ive tried that tastes almost as good as real cheese. The lovely manager at our local Pizza Express found out what cheese they use - it’s this one, expensive but well worth it for homemade pizza www.mozzarisella.co.uk

Have only tried he mozzarella so far, but going to give the others a go

I'm lactose intolerant. My grandaughter is allergic to the proteins in cow milk.

We found out DD was allergic to dairy at 6 months when we warned her so like some others I went DF too to carry on breastfeeding. It actually wasn’t that bad and I lost weight! Ever since we have stuck with the Oatly Barista in place of milk. My daughter grew out of the allergy at around 3 so it can be a short term thing. she still drinks oat milk and has alpro yoghurts as it’s what she’s used to but it’s nice not having to stress about her eating g something she shouldn’t.

Ooh pizza, goodfellas do a vegan falafel pizza. It’s lovely and not mega expensive you could always put d/f cheese on it if you wanted but I didn’t miss the cheese at all.
