Just wondering if anyone has experience with their LO being severely unsettled during the weaning process?
It’s my 2nd child and wow, totally different in all aspects to my first. So far he has been massively unsettled after broccoli, spinach, eggs and cows milk.
He’s on standard formula, we suspected CMPA early on but ruled that out. I avoided cows milk initially with weaning and used formula instead. Decided to add some whole cows milk into his dinner (an item he’s had most frequently and no issues) to cool it down. Within 1-2 hours he was massively distressed and had 3 explosive nappies. 24 hours later I noticed a rash all over his back and tummy. HV said unlikely cows milk as he’s on cows milk formula?
We done mashed / finger foods / blw with my DC1 and used a lot of Greek yogurt, soft cheese, cheese and milk products and I made everything fresh. With DC2, any finger food has resulted in servere gagging (not the main issue). I manage to remain calm and let him get it up, but it making me really stressed. So far DC2 safe foods to eat / not be unsettled with are - Weetabix, sweet potato, avocado, butternut squash, steamed apple, strawberries and blueberries. He has majorly gagged on toast, banana, a biscotti biscuit, rice wafer, egg. Sometimes taking 4-5 go’s to clear it.
does anyone have advice or experienced issues like this? And TIA for any replies!
