Can you just use almond milk?  I was looking for a creamer when my LO had the same issues and there are dairy free creamers, but they are gross and filled with all kinds of ingredients you can't pronounce (which makes them less appealing to me).  I found almond milk and it was a nice alternative to me.

Was just about to post exactly what Kara recommended.  I'm having a cup of coffee right now with some unsweetened vanilla almond milk.  Wonderful!

How are you doing otherwise with the elimination diet?  How's your LO?  Are you seeing any improvement?  I hope so!   :-*

Hemp milk is the creamiest milk substitute I've found.  Well, except for coconut milk, but hemp milk has a much more neutral flavor. Not sure how you'd feel about coconut flavored coffee. :)

I know this is old, but the best, 'can't tell the difference' cream sub I've found is 'SoDelicious' coconut milk creamer - doesn't taste like coconut and is very very creamy - I find that the almond milks and other alternatives are too watery to make my coffee the way I like it.

Just had to share because this was a big break-through for me:)

well im back on it lol this coconut stuff is AMAZING! the only thing is you can not buy the flavored ones b/c they have natural flavoring in them. but the plain works just fine!

LOL!  I thought about it after I saw your post about giving it up and thought "gosh - I hope she doesn't try that coconut stuff then because it's going to make her start drinking coffee again it's so good!"

It is good, isn't it?  doesn't taste like coconut and is so creamy - just like cream!  I like the plain the best anyway - not a flavored coffee kind of gal myself...
