A bit rashy after cows milk
Anyone else’s baby reacting slightly to cows milk in porridge, or yoghurt? Or even after any food, would you stop giving it?
Baby comes out in a mild rash every time but I don’t know whether that means he’s *allergic* or what! I don’t want to completely stop because there’s no other symptoms and still happy and smiley.
Any advice?

I remember in the infant feeding class I did they said that we can confidently give foods that can be allergens because the first reactions are usually mild and will only show as a rash for example but the allergy might be a lot more severe moving forward. But of course that doesn't mean your baby is allergic, just something to keep in mind. Might be worth asking your GP/HV for more specific advice.
Do you have pictures? X
do you mean that ideally I should stop giving it cos the reaction next time could be worse? Because I have also heard that you need to keep exposing them to allergens so that they become desensitised.
I will speak to a professional soon I just wondered what everyone else would do. Because I don’t know if I am just being anxious x
I'd day it's best to speak to a professional either way, because the rash might even be from something else. I do expose to allergens regularly as well with the aim to reduce the risk of allergies but just ones that don't trigger a reaction. A doctor would be best suited to help definitely.
My daughters heat rash was when it was Feb and wasn't warm at all but she gets warm very quickly x
