Anyone find a substitute for cheese?
If you like strong cheese then you have Goats cheese, made w/ Goats milk.  There is also another type of goat cheese which isn't as strong and tastes nice (dd will eat it) but i can't remember the name.  In the next few days, i'll be getting some and i will post it for you.  Where are you?  I get the cheese at Trader Joes and Henrys market.  There is also a Goat's Spread called: which is nice on Crackers (dd will also eat that).

QUESTION for Gracekellysmom.  I posted awhile back about DD constent runny nose and ear infections(almost 6mnths solid).  I thought Milk Allergy, Ped and allergist said no.  I then found this post and in Feb took her off all dairy and soy.  It helped immediately, she hasn't had an ear infection in 2 mnths and her nose is dry  :).  So thank you, thank you!  Anyway, i have discovered trace milk is fine (lucky me/her) and also Soy.  I decided to test milk based cheese again and didn't notice any difference until today (10days or so) and her poop was green!  Now i know she hasn't eaten any green veg or green anything.  IS this the sign, cheese is still off the menu?

thanks!

Thank you Michelle! I never even thought of goat's cheese and I used to love it! I'm Toronto and there happens to be a fab cheese shop near where I live, as soon as dd wakes from her nap we are going there! I'm so excited!

How can you tell if your lo can handle trace amounts of milk products? I've eliminated it all, I'm finally accustomed to rice milk, too afraid to intro any amounts of the real stuff. Held a bridal shower for SIL on weekend and abstained from 3/4's of the food I served that had milk, cheese, cream in it. Wow, talk about testing the willpower.

You are welcome!  I would hate for you to do w/o when you didn't need to.  I love a good goat cheese salad - yummmm.  You could also eat Feta (sheeps milk).

   I did a complete elimination of milk and soy from her diet for 2weeks and noticed immediate improvement.  I then introduced Soy, again no problem.  Week later introduced things like: waffles, crackers, etc all had trace amounts of milk/soy and didn't see any difference in her runny nose (which was our main problem).  My LO is much older then yours and eating her own food vs. BF like you are doing so probably not a good comparison.

I eliminated milk/soy in my diet when my lo's eczema starting being horrible around 4 weeks old. He had other signs, but his skin was my therometer. When his skin was doing so well that is had been weeks since seeing red patches, I gently tried soy- at around 5 month- he failed. Then I tried again around 3 weeks ago- and he hasn't had a problem. I just finished a greek salad iwth Feta cheese. Even has cereal with milk last weekend! He does have allergies/ear infections but those seem unrelated to milk/soy. And he tested negative on his bloodwork for milk/soy. The allergist recommended total avoidance for the first year while nursing, but he isn't the mother!

OMG, I must have had mommy brain, back when I eliminated cow's milk products I threw out Feta cheese ::). I tossed out all cheese and have never looked back not even thinking that Feta wasn't from cow's milk either! My dd's reaction to cow's milk was blood in her diaper which I guess just freaked me out so much and I was desperate not to have to switch to formula. Boy, I'm going to have fun at the cheese shop when dd wakes up, I'm counting the minutes!

Wait, can I really eat goat and sheep cheese with a milk protein intolerance?!?  That would be so great.

I think a lot of people still find that it causes problems (the sheep and goat milk), but I guess you could always try.

Let me clarify my earlier post....I believe my LO has outgrown his MSPI...therefore I am eating cheese again! I was never brave enough to try cheese when he was having problems.

I tried Goat's cheese and she reacted to it as well  :(  Therefore no cheese for me!!

I am going to try introducing a trace amount when she turns 1 (in one month!!)

I just finished my dinner... with a huge chunk of feta. Now, from reading the new posts I'm concerned, guess I'll have to wait and see. For those of you going out to get feta- be careful, I just found out that some feta is made with cow's milk, only the Greek feta is not and even then it depends on the mfg so check first.

Michelle, you could cut it again and try again in a month. Cheese was hard for my dd to tolerate. She was ok with yogurt first. Think of if she's had anything blue or purple in her diet, like a dyed cereal or candy, popsicle, anything like that? Max has funny colored poops when he eats popsicles.

OT, my SIL once told me my nephew had green poop - he ate silly putty!! (for non-US, it's like clay or play-doh) Yuck!

Thanks Stacy!

We will go back to Goat Cheese and try again.   Was i giving wrong info regarding Goat Cheese and Feta (w/ Sheeps Milk) as a safe alternative?

I don't understand what you mean?  I am tired tonight.

I don't think you were giving wrong info, Michelle. Some MSPI babies do very well with goat's cheese (some even on goat's formula). However, many babies still react as they are actually reacting to the animal proteins. But it's always worth a try!

Were you directing this one at me? Am I nutz as a second time mom cause I give my kiddos popsicles and other artificially colored foods?  ;D Sometimes those artificial colors can leak through to the poop. Didn't you ever eat cereals as a kid that turned your poop blue/green? Just another idea - sometimes Max has funky colored poops and it's this and not his intolerance.

First Time Mom-How did it go with the Feta?  I want to try but I'm scared.  Let me know if you get a chance.
