Are there any moms of dairy free toddlers?

Question for you-
Is there a cheese and a yogurt that are dairy free but still taste halfway decent?

I am trying to start elminating dairy from DD's diet- she is super constipated to the point where she was crying and sweating last night trying to go. Chat Icon
It was awful.

Her poop is always rock hard and tiny pebbles.

I have tried prune juice, fruit, etc- nothing works.

I hear that dairy can be the culprit and while she doesn't really drink any cows milk anymore - she loves cheese and yogurt.

Any alternatives?

I used to give my DS rice cheese and yogurt. I would get them at Whole foods and Wild by Nature. He did great with both of them.

And the rice wasn't binding?
I feel like rice is constipating as well- no?

My DD had a dairy allergy as a baby and I EBf so I had to go dairy free. I loved the So Delicious brand coconut products. Especially the milk and yogurt. I never found a decent cheese, but I hear Daiya cheese is Vegan and delicious. You can get it packaged at Stop & Shop and fresh shred at Whole Foods but its $$. I didn't find out about it until after I was back on dairy.

Almond Dream yogurt (vanilla, mixed berry) is very good. Earth balance buttery spread (they have a lot of diff. types). There is a coconut yogurt as well but my DS got diarrhea form it. I have not found a tasty cheese alternative yet (have tried daiya, rice cheese) all are gross IMHO hehe.

MY DD is the same way. I was about to try the same.

My DD Is the same way. I've had her on miralax for a year and a half now and it's not really helping anymore. I just started giving soy milk and am wondering too about cheese and yogurt.
