PLZ HELP! MILK allergy!?!?!

God help me. 1st an egg allergy, then he doesn't ever want to eat ANYTHING, and now a milk allergy! @#*$#)%_&!!!!!!!!!!!! NO ONE has ANY allergies in our families! WTH!




so now what? he's 1 so we started yesterday with cows milk. if he can't drink cows milk then what do i give him?

i just don't get it, he eats cheese!?!

he's got a rash all over his arms, legs, and lower back and that is just from maybe 3 oz. of milk from yesterday.

we go to the allergy specialist on wed. about his egg allergy. i guess we'll see what else he's allergic to then.

any advice on how to deal with a 1 year old who hates food AND has 2 big allergies are GREATLY appreciated!!!

My son only has a milk allergy, but you should FM Teri, her older dd has a few different food allergies. She was very supportive when I was first going through this and very overwhelmed.

A friend of a friend has an older kid (like 7 or 8) that is milk and egg allergic and she mainly eats cereal and fruit. Not the greatest, but their doctor said that she's healthy and they make sure she takes her multi-vitamin every day.

My son has a milk allergy. I give him rice or almond milk (he's not really a fan of, but he'll drink it). I also give him calicum fortified oj.

For foods: Tyson chicken nuggets
Ian's fish sticks / chicken
Enjoy Life snacks / cereal

Fruits (except banana which he is also allergic to).

HTH
