Milk allergy

Well, it’s official— the allergy test confirmed today that my daughter has a severe dairy allergy, as I’d suspected. My husband does as well, so it’s not a huge surprise. I’ve been off dairy for several years for my cholesterol too. At least we aren’t dealing with a huge diet change, but I hate it for her. She gets terrible tummy cramps any time she or I ingest even the smallest amount of milk (we still bf before bed).

Anyone else dealing with a milk allergy? I’m trying to start her on soy or almond milk as she’s almost entirely weaned at this point. I’ve had a hard time finding a milk substitute she will drink straight from her sippy cup.
