How did you know that it was the dairy causing the problem?
We didnt at first, we came home from NICU/SCN and discovered that after 18 days she hadnt done a poo... We went to get her checked out and everyone passed it off as being BF, spoke to the paed and they suspected Heirsprung's after invasive testing for that it was concluded she has dairy/soy allergy. After eliminating it from the diet she has pooed every 3 days on cue.
Was it an immediate or delayed reaction?
She didnt poo immediately, for 18 or so days. After dairy/soy was eliminated she improved almost immediately
Did you get allergy testing or any other medical consultation to confirm? No allergy testing as far as Im aware but she was tested for Heirsprungs due to her birth.
How did it impact your introduction to solids? It hasnt as we are already ona dairy/soy free diet. Although we have to check most prepackaged baby foods etc.
Did your child grow out of the allergy or become able to tolerate small amounts?
She can tolerate traces of without major impact, no trial of full exposure has been given.
If your child had to maintain a dairy free diet, did you have to increase the intake of other foods to ensure they got appropriate calcium and nutrients?
We are yet to get to this stage...
And while breastfeeding, did you alter your own diet for the same reasons? Hmmm. Not really lol. Should probably look into that haha.
