Dairy and lactose free diet.

[bindabelle]

:headbang: Hello all.
Was just wondering if anyone could help me.I have an 11 month old baby who has been diagnosed with reflux and also have now been told he has a dairy and lactose intolerance.He has been prescribed Nutramigen formula.He has been on this formula for about three months.over the last two months he has been unbearable at bedtime.ie: really sleepy until he has his milk (nutramigen) then he goes into hyper mode for two hours.
Hope someone can help as have read good advice from here before but am yet to get any from the professionals.!!!!

My daughter has been prescribed nutramigan but she dosent like the taste or smell so cant comment about possible side effects - she was prescribed this formular because she is also soya intolerant - i believe up to 40% of children with milk allergies also suffer with soya allergies as well. Maybe another formular might be worth a try - I'm sure there are other ones out there as well altho' not sure which. If your child is not allergic to soya, maybe it would be worth giving one of these a go instead?

:unsure: my son had wysoy from sma baby milk and the doctor put it on presiption. I used to give his bottle early and when sleepy give him a dummy, then a small bottle in the night if he wanted it or he would be awake all night. He is 3 years old now and understands so he can say no to foods with milk.Were having fun with some baking .
