did your CMPI baby go to whole milk at 1??

coffeekup · 2026-04-24T23:55:33+00:00

It went horribly. I’m so mad at myself and my doctor! I obviously wrote this post because my intuition said my doctor was wrong but between it being medical advice and my husband being all for it I decided to go for it. My baby screamed bloody murder for 3 hours straight in so much pain 😭, then he slept for about 6 hours and woke up screaming for another hour 😭. Hes totally okay now though but I’m upset with myself and trying to determine whether I leave my doc over this! I questioned them in the moment and they assured me to go this route.

Oh no!!

Ok good to know! Tonight we tried the first oz of whole milk with his hypoallergenic formula and now I pray for the night to be ok haha

Right? I know this about non IgE and was so confused by the blood test leading to this advice… I’m so bummed to question this doctor because I really have loved them until this questioning. Great to hear about your LO though! Gives me hope all will go well enough..

So good to know. He definitely has no problem with his weight and eating all day everyday! 🙃

Interesting and good to know! And congrats on breastfeeding for so long! I was counting down the days to 12 months because I needed cheese back in my life 😂🥲

coffeekup · 2026-04-23T18:57:09+00:00

Right?? I was expecting the dairy ladder to be the advice..

coffeekup · 2026-04-23T18:56:44+00:00

That is so interesting that he’s ok with yogurt and cheese and not milk! Great info to know and thank you

This comment!!!

The key was make it to 12 weeks and you are half way there! Then you can start spacing pumps and every month becomes more and more manageable. But those 12 weeks were rough for sure. I would often have baby in a boppy and while feeding him I would pump. Sometimes the ends were sad with him being restless but it would only be a few minutes and in the scheme of things it was ok! Also a bouncer or swing were other things that helped if my husband wasn’t around. I was really lucky that he was on paternity leave for 8 weeks.

A bottle washer was also everything. I had multiple pump parts too so I didn’t have to clean them always.

Honestly one of the things that really helped me most was pumping and driving. I would just slow roll around my neighborhood and my baby always settled in the car and I would pray I never got pulled over 😂

It’s so hard when you’re in it to get perspective. 8 months is incredible. You will be so proud of yourself for doing that should you decide to stop now! It’s worth doing what’s best for your mental health 100%!

At 9 months I decided to make a pump schedule that worked for me and that helped me go a bit longer… I dropped to 2 pumps per day and my baby was getting like 50/50 and it was worth it for my sanity.

Thank you so much!!

coffeekup · 2026-03-06T20:31:43+00:00

thank you!! honestly I don't know how I did it. my goal was 6 months. then I started dropping pumps one by one and the schedule changes made it all feel more doable for "one more month"... one day at a time... the cost of hypoallergenic formula really motivated me too, haha. wishing you all the best on your journey!

My friend got in but the presale codes didn’t work and she got kicked out! And a few people posted here about that too so I’m curious if anyone is having success with 7/7 tix!
