waiting for answer. Would be great if you can take a sec and
answer them
Are there any other mommies whose baby has a "cows milk protein" allergy?Mine is on Nutramigen Hypo Allergenic formula for this. She is 9 months old on the 7th. I was wondering if and when they grow out of it?
Her daddy gave her a yogurt juice yesterday, and she was fine, but I thought yogurt had cows milk in it? I'm confused..I take her next week to the pedi so I will ask then, just wanting your experience please. :)
A J: I took her to her pedi because the Enfamil I supplemented her on would come up as soon as it went down. I thought something was wrong and thought I should take her in. He said Cows Milk Protein Allergy, and prescribed Nutramigen. She's been on it since about 2 months. She used to have reflux though, so now I'm not so sure that it was the cows milk protien..
Well I breast fed too..But she did have a really mucousy poop one time and I took that particular diaper to the pedi and the test for blood came back positive..I forgot about that until you said that about your son..Hers wasn't that severe though..Poor bubba!

As your baby grows older, you may be able to start introducing cow's milk into the diet - but only on the advice of your physician or allergist. Infants often outgrow milk allergy, but the age at which it's safe to re-introduce milk and milk products back into the diet varies with each individual child. Your doctor will probably recommend that your child's diet be free of dairy products for at least the first 12 to 18 months. He or she may then re-test the child every 6 months until she determines that your baby is no longer allergic to cow's milk. Once your doctor confirms that your child has outgrown the milk allergy, make sure to follow his reccomendations as to how to introduce dairy foods back into the diet. But until your doctor tells you that it is safe to do so, don't try to re-introduce milk into your child's diet on your own. And if milk or milk products ever caused an immediate, severe reaction - or anaphylaxis - you should never under any circumstances re-introduce it into your child's diet unless allergy tests have confirmed that your child has outgrown the allergy. In those severe cases, it may sometimes be recommended to introduce milk into your child's diet under close medical supervision like in a hospital setting.

I cared for a young man who was on just that formula. Often times it's more of an intolerance than an actual allergy. Many times as your baby grows and his system matures, he can break down the cows milk protien much easier. I would assume since there was no reaction to the yogurt juice, she has indeed matured enough to handle milk. I would introduce milk products slowly to be sure, but by the time she is a year, I bet she will be able to take cows milk products just fine.

I thought my baby was the only one! As a baby they had her on Simalactose free. When she was put on 2% it made her soooo sick. So we Tried Soy, she just wouldn't drink it. We managed to find 2% lactose free milk! She drinks it like water. Now regular 2% and whole milk tears her stomach, and ice cream forces us to break out the milicon but she can eat cheese like candy! He pediatrician said that its the fat in the cows milk that some kids cant break down. So now at three yrs old she can handle more cows milk and all. Give it time she'll grow out of it. Just keep the baby imodium & milicon gas drops on deck!

well its a fact that some babies who are allergic to cow's milk are not allergic to yogurt or cheese made from cow's milk. because yogurt or cheese are cultured. they are already sort of DIGESTED. anyway, u can try giving her a little bit of cow's milk when she is 1 year old. if she is fine. thats good. good luck.
