My DD is 7.5 months and started solids at 6 months. She developed a rash on her chin, neck & cheeks. The doctor just keeps saying its eczema and that its caused by drool. But drool doesn't get on her cheeks - food does. The other day I added a little cows milk to her cereal and she immediately came up in hives (looked like a severe nettle rash) on her face, neck & arms, where the cereal had touched. I took her to the doctors but she just said 'try soy milk'. (Getting information out of doctors here is like getting blood from a stone)
I'm now very confused about what exactly this may be - lactose intollerance, cows milk allergy...? She had no other symptoms. I don't know what else I should avoid. Where should I start with this?
Any advice would be great. Thank you.
