Cows milk allergy

I'm 3 weeks in and am wondering the same, as we still seem to have all the reflux, constipation and now trapped gas! Although we did get a little bit of immediate relief in her patch of dry skin and she started feeding a bit better

oh boy! It's so hard isn't it, like when do you call it a day and decide it's not working?? Our health visitor thinks his tummy pains are either colic or dairy intolerance. We're 2 weeks in but LO is also 7 weeks so he's basically in the peak of colic, if that's what he has, so that should be easing off from now but then how do I know if it's colic easing or dairy free working 😩😂

Yes it is so difficult to kow isnt it?! They said to me its either silent reflux or CMPA but because she had a little patch of dry skin on her forehead and I was allergic to cheese for 20 years (it's genetic apparently) they suggested we try this first! I feel like in the last week she's started developing slight colicky symptoms, she's 11 weeks old so I wouldve thought if it was colic it would've shown and peaked by now as my son had it noricably from 4 weeks old, but I'm waiting for a follow up from the HV for some advice as I've been completely dairy free for just over 3 weeks and I'm unsure if it's working! I would persist for the full time though just so they if things haven't improved you know you tried the dairy free option!

Immediately for scrunching up her belly, less constipation and better colour poos! Xx

Blimey, you're doing great sticking it out I really hope you get to the bottom of it!! I think I will persist for sure. Fingers crossed we get some answers and happier babies soon! ❤️
