Whole milk allergy?

Question

So my LO has had no reaction to dairy (yogurt, cheese and eggs) but we recently started giving bottles of whole milk consistently within the past week or so. The past 3 days she has scaly red bumps on her body (mostly her back). At first I thought it was dry skin but now I’m wondering if she’s having a reaction to the whole milk? Anyone have this happen? Do I try almond milk?

Answer

It sounds like a reaction, you should see your dr and have him tested. If its mild the dr will have you add little bits of dairy to try to help him over come the allergy. I have a friend in this situation. Same reaction, they are adding little bits of dairy over time and usually it helps them grow out of it. Be careful of almond milk. Most are not nutritionally equivalent to dairy milk, they don't have the fat for brain development. Soy is usually the closest, recommended by medical professionals.

Answer

This was his reaction in his back

Answer

Yes, my boy had the exact same reaction when we put him on full cow's milk. Horrible red rash all over his body. Back, tummy and crotch area, he can only drink Skim milk, but we have been giving him small bits of whole milk mixed in

Answer

Sounds like a mild reaction to me if they look irritating or causing babe pain/discomfort or get worse then id talk to the doctor
