NO DAIRY
A week after Brayden's 2 month doctors appointment I decided to take my little man in to the doctors to check his weight since he wasn't eating well. My poor sweet boy started screaming in between feedings and was fussy while I nursed.
I took my sweet guy in and as I expected, he dropped two ounces.
7 lbs 5 oz
I am happy to report after a week without dairy- 100% dairy free Mr. Mr. gained two ounces and is doing much better. The poor guy is on a lot of medication right now as we're trying to eliminate all acid in his belly and also take away the gas pains he's been suffering with until we can completely get the dairy out of my breast milk. ( Interesting fact- it takes 6 weeks to get dairy out of your system). Hopefully by June he'll be able to go off the zantac and I'm expecting within a week or two he won't need the gas drops.
So yes, we are dairy free until Brayden is six months old. At that time, we'll start reintroducing dairy and see how the little fella does. Hopefully this is one of those allergies he'll outgrow.
