My doc has referred us to an allergist for M who is nearly 9 months now. He did not want to but i pushed for it so waiting for appt now.
I have read through the intolerances sticky so many times and just not sure if I should be doing more than I am. There are lots of symptoms she does not have but a few she does. The main ones are...
She still spits up - it does not bother her but after a bottle and sometimes after a solid feed she will spit up small amounts but frequently. I thought she would have grown out of this by now??
She is a restless sleeper - she does not often need me at night but I can hear her whining or talking and sometimes on off crying.
She has ezcema on her tummy which is always there but gets worse some days. I do keep a food diary for her but atm I cannot see any links.
She is quite grizzly but she is also teething so this could be responsible for that.
I guess my question is whether to do a dairy trial. The problem I have is that she is on Aptamil formula and although it would be fairly easy to take most dairy out of her diet, I am not sure I should switch formula at this stage. What do you think? I would like to discuss it with the allergist but a. it might take a whole to see him and b. i am not sure they will take it very seriously as she is fine weight wise.
Do you think it would be worth cutting out all dairy apart from her formula or is that a bit pointless. Should I look into switching her formula? I don't know why but it feels like a huge thing to do particularly as she has always been on it.
