11 month old has cmpa, diagnosed at 8 weeks, didn't tolerate aptamil pepti 1 it sorted out her bowel issues, rash etc but she then developed pretty bad eczema so had to go onto Neocate dairy free and has been fine since.
I think she is reacting to soya. The last week she's been loving these soya yogurts from Asda, no immediate reactions but I have noticed her eczema flaring up in patches on her tummy, been scratching at it and the last two days she's had small patches of hives come up on her thighs, does this sound like a reaction??

It could well be. This is why we went for oat rather than soya when weaning our first, although he doesn't seem to be soya sensitive.

I think you cut it out for a few weeks and then reintroduce to test if it's the soya?

Cmpa babies often have soya issues too as the proteins are so similar.

Yes I remember reading that when she was tiny and looking into the milk allergy.
Yeah I will cut out the yogurts and see what happens, it must be that though as she hasn't had anything different.
Doesn't bread have soy in it too ?
She's been having bread/toast fine

It sounds like a reaction to me. Switch for oat/coconut and see if that improves things.

We use oat milk. Most bread also contains soya. If you live near Aldi, their bloomer and essentials loaves are dairy and soya free.

Weird how she's been fine with the bread but not the yogurts

There'll will be more soy protein in yogurt than bread I imagine. Since bread is mostly wheat but yogurt is mostly yogurt! Suggests you'll be able to do the ladder.

My ds now 4 can tolerate all dairy except for pure cows milk now, so step 11 of 12 on the dairy ladder.
