    Or use EBM to add to babes cooked meals.

    My Paed encouraged me to bf my DD for as long as possible because of her allergies/eczema. And to use EBM in everything for as long as I bf her.
    My issue at the moment is she wants to eat what we eat, DP would not be interested in breast milk in his dinner
    I plan on BFing for as long as possible but she's starting to want things like biscuits etc - i buy her dairy free stuff but i much prefer making my own, i'd also like to make some yummy muffins etc for her without dairy products that DD1 can eat aswell.

    Ahh the joys of motherhood

    Yep you can still do that. I used to just take out a small amount of whatever needed it to add EBM to DD's [I actually did it with all the kids, but DD for the longest].

    Thats fine for mash etc but BIG things i'm cooking as a whole for a family meal i wont be able to remove her portion, like muffins or cake.

    Actually that gets me wondering about her 1st birthday cake.... hmmm

    I'd be more inclined to test her for Rice than Soy. Soy isn't the be all and end all and I like it better in cooking anyway!

    I've never heard of a child allergic to rice based products, but there are certainly children with problems with soy lecithin.

    Yep rice milk .. There isabsolutely no reason soy formula should be used for cooking, what a waste of money!
    I would go and see another doctor and get a second opinion.

    I make DFree muffins all the time - rice milk and nuttlex swap over easily.
