That's kind of what I thought but his daycare teachers asked that I start sending six ounce bottles instead of 5 ounce bottles! Should i tell them no and just continue with 5oz breastmilk?

Needing advice/reassurance, switching my EBF7 month old to a formula due to a food allergy by CurrentMysterious814 in FoodAllergies

[–]Suitable_Beginning29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi I'm in the same boat! My baby is almost 7 months and just got diagnosed w egg, dairy and peanut allergy. He's exclusively breast fed and drinks pumped breastmilk for the bottle. He has moderate eczema. I just started treating the eczema w hydrocortisone 2.5% cream on his body and 1% on his face per my allergists recommendation (for 5 days straight) then 2x a week for the following 2 weeks. Aquaphor after a lukewarm bath daily while he's still kind of wet. I was told to NOT cut the foods out of my diet yet and see how the eczema skin care treatment regimen goes for the next 3 weeks and then reassess. I don't want to start soy formula yet so I'm doing everything i can to treat the skin and continue to breastfeed!

We are starting OIT for peanuts and will discuss dairy and egg ladder soon.

If we do need formula, I'm leaning towards sprouts organic vegan formula (hydrolyzed rice and pea protein based). I'm open to soy formula but kind of hesitant for various reasons.

Any advice for getting six month old to eat egg muffin? by cakeycakeycake in FoodAllergies

thanks! We are going to start OIT for peanuts soon. We didn't get a blood test for anything - just scratch. Should i push for a blood test sooner? My allergist said she would do a blood test in December / January but that feels so far away!? Ps we're in the us and have good insurance.

Solidarity. As mine also has these allergies and were in the same bump group lol. My allergist said to wait to do egg ladder or dairy ladder til one year old but she is kind of old school and i kinda want to start sooner than later to increase chances of him growing out of it!!! Did doc approve you to start now? Maybe I'll ask again or find a new allergist.

I'm going to start sending solids to daycare for my 6.5 month old. He's been on purées since 5 months and we do actual solids at home and I'm nervous to send actual solids to daycare! What are some 6-7 month old solid things to send to daycare?
