My DD1 was exactly the same - I am really pleased you finally got it sorted - my dd had that milk, eventually went onto Wysoy and actually started to have cows milk at 2 with no problems.
Now you can start to enjoy your gorgeous little boy

Those who read my "failure to thrive" thread a few weeks back will remember that my son was seeing a paediatrician and dietician due to losing weight over a 7 week period.
Finally seen the dietician today and my DS definitely has a dairy intollerance and is on a dairy free diet til at least 18 months. He also has reflux, so is being treated for that aswell.
It all explains why he would scream for hours a day and eventually where he wouldnt feed due to the pain. He is on nutramigen milk now and has been doing so well. He has put on a little over 3lbs in the last 3 weeks, making up for lost time. He is a completely different baby now. I'm just glad he isnt in pain any longer and that I can finally enjoy my baby.






Yea it seems there's alot more products out there to make the weaning easier. Not so worried bout that now and thanks for all your help x
