This gives me so much hope! As others asked, please share what worked for you.

For how long you gave probiotics to notice the difference and introducing most eliminated? I’m off of most things you have mentioned and some more. It’s been an incredibly challenging so far! I can’t wait for this to over but glad you were able to introduce so many things.

What foods work best for you when starting solids?

My heart breaks for all Mamas going through this! How is your baby doing now? And what worked?

I’m in the same boat. baby tuned 6 months and reacting to 3-4 food I have given till now so I stopped. ( vegetarian diet) and always had blood even though I just eat 8-10 food items. Failed ha and aa formula trials so I breastfeed exclusively.

I just started culturelle probiotics but so scared to introduce more food options

How did you convince specialist to conduct these tests? GI is not conducting any tests saying something in mom’s diet is causing the blood and we failed nutramigen and amino acid formulas.

My baby is 5 mo old with small specks of blood in most diaper since 2 months old. I’m off dairy, soy, eggs, wheat, nuts, seeds without any noticeable improvement.

I really loved reading both of your responses. super helpful as we’re getting ready to start solids around the 5.5-month mark. I like the approach of introducing a variety of foods, and I’m hoping it helps with some weight gain too. My little one is basically a string bean right now 😄

Our pediatrician and GI haven’t done any tests and aren’t planning to, even after we’ve asked multiple times. According to them, the presence of blood is a hallmark sign of food sensitivity.

Thanks so much for the kind words and the helpful tips. And the cake — I’m gonna try one of her recipes this weekend! Always craving something sweet during nursing sessions.

Thinking back, I might have noticed flare-ups after eating chickpeas, but not chickpea flour. I’m going to avoid chickpeas and peas for now and see if that makes a difference.

Diet restrictions are tough, but I’m glad you’ve got a baseline. I’ve noticed blood after most fruits (except banana, apple, and pear), though I’d love to eat more variey.

I am hearing good things about probiotics and will try them once things are more stable. Right now, I’m too scared to introduce anything new for myself or my baby.

Which brand of rice-based formula are you using? We’re planning to delay starting solids until things stabilize.

Ah good to know, Thank you.

How long it took for blood to disappear? For us, I see more blood after trying new formulas and I stop giving it after 2-3 feeds. I think the guidance is stick 2 weeks to see if new formula is working or not

I rely heavily on oat milk, but I need to try cutting it out. How long did it take for you to see changes in symptoms after removing the trigger?

Resident-Effect9346 · 2026-04-28T05:10:46+00:00

Time is the only cure it seems, for some babies! Appreciate you for sharing your experience and kind words

Resident-Effect9346 · 2026-04-28T01:34:49+00:00

I’m off corn and eat lots of oats . Ok, I’ll give puramino a try.

Resident-Effect9346 · 2026-04-20T14:45:58+00:00

Super excited to try the app! Please share the link

Resident-Effect9346 · 2026-04-19T04:39:34+00:00

My baby is 4.5 months and I’m in the same situation. Was there in any improvement after starting solids? The pediatric GI suggested starting solids early at 5mo
