    Tracey how are you going with it all?? So much to process in a short space of time, but Thank God for BB !!!

    Laura our allergist wouldn't do skin ***** tests on the girls because he said they were allready too reactive and would show up allergic to more than they are. Some allergists for babies will do kineseology which uses you to show what your baby is allergic too. There are kineseologists out there that are not allergists, I would check with a local naturopath that you know of or trust to find one. Yep they are alternative therapists but our allergist who is a medical specialist as well does kineseology on babies. He said it won't give you indication of "How allergic" there is no absolute value just a "yes" or "no".

    Re: Barb Glare's comment on the other thread. TRACEY I think I mentioned to you that I had posted about this earlier last week? Here is the link: Breastmilk Colitis?? - BellyBelly Forums ~ Pregnancy, Birth & Baby
    There is also a great article on the ABA site about Lactose Intolerance-- I'll try to PM you the link. The paed. seems to think in Hamish's case that it is unlikely to be lactose int. as he has been passing blood as well as the mucus-- I've almost forgotten what a normal healthy baby poo looks like. I understand how upsetting it can be to watch them go through that pain-- distressing for everyone and makes for a fairly unhappy baby! I hope you get some answers-- we're still waiting for some here!
