    Hun, lacteeze won't help as this is not lactose intolerance. It could be an allergy to a number of things but the most likely is one of the cows' milk proteins. The very best thing to do is to see a dietician who specialises in food sensitivities. This way you can find out exactly what the allergy is to and ensure that you eliminate all the foods you need to, without unnecessarily eliminating other things. If you do to the dietician's association website you can search on speciality for food allergy and sensitivities.

    All the best hun

    there are lots of other options out there to dairy i wouldnt go soy as there can be an intoloerance to that too , but if you do , go organic . we have dd on rice milk and shes fine . but there is almond milk , oat milk etc you can try if rice isnt your thing . i BF dd for 16 mths with all her allergies/intolerances and didnt stop my diet . i should have but it wasnt until i stopped and she became a differnt child that it was affecting her that much .

    the rest of us drink zymil . as my ds has suspected LI . made a huge differnece in him .

    as for cheese there is a brand in woolies called tofutti . its in slices . its cheese made from tofu . my dd loves it
    also mrs flannerys ( or a big health food shop) sell dairy free cheese .
    and chocolate , there are a few brands of dairy free chocolate out there . not a bad choice , sweet william is one i buy dd as a treat . there is another brand and its tastier but i cant remember what its called ...

    sot milk is disgusting . rice is nice on its own , but nothing beast normal milk in coffee.
