    I have always used rice milk along with still demand bfing. Just bought almond milk this week to try but DS is now 20months. It was recommended by my naturopath ages ago as a better replacement than rice milk, but while i was still bfing i wasnt' concerned.

    My page is non profit and not a business. Just an info page Some babes with Cow's Milk protein allergy can tollerate goats milk although my son can't. There are a couple formulas available though on prescription for babies with CMPA if need be?

    Kirley you are fine to post a link to your FB page if you like, because it's non commercial

    Are you avoiding soy or just dairy? We do both as apparently they commonly go hand in hand? Which rings true for our little ones when we have messed up lol. We also avoid soy lectin (sp?) as there are mixed reports about it so we figure its safer just to avoid it. We are sadly yet to find a chocolate that doesnt have soy lecthin or dairy in it. Wahh... Also if you are avoiding both soy and dairy, watch what they cook things in when out. Lots of places use vegetable oil - vegetable oil contains Soy.

    If you become friends with your health food isle they have a brand called orgran that is practically everything free. For chocolate cake we make it from scratch using the crazy cake (minus spices) recipe. Tastes pretty yum! Its also heavily allergy free.

    Once you get in the swing of things, its pretty easy.

    Have you tried making banana ice cream? Thats our next adventure. Nom nom (I hope lol).
    Rawlicious Chocolate from the healthfood stores is chocolate that is soy and dairy free It does have agave nectar so only have small amounts cuz that's alot of sugar. But it's yum!
