My son is just over a month old and we found out this week he is allergic to milk. So I have to cut dairy and soy out of my diet to continue to breastfeed or switch to a special formula. Anyone else dealing with this? Dairy isn’t bad but soy is hard.

Question

Answer

How did you find out he was allergic?

Answer

I had to cut soy and dairy with my first, it was really hard, but once you figure out what you can eat it does get easier! My LO was really sensitive so I had to be really careful, but I reintroduced both around 6 months and my LO did great, and she currently has no allergies (at 2 years old). Soy is in everything, even some prenatal vitamins (I used rainbow light, soy free), I’m happy to help if you have any questions!

Answer

I just cut dairy, soy, and nuts trying to figure out what my LO is allergic to or reacting to. He spits up so much he’s not gaining as much weight as he should, has a little rash on his face and is so gassy and fussy 😢
