Baby still reacting to breastmilk
Hi, we’ve had a long journey with our five month old and just wondering if anyone has been through similar and has any advice.
He has symptoms of reflux, gas and eczema and we’ve never had full resolution, despite being dairy and soy free (he is EBF). We have suddenly had three nappies with blood and a lot of mucus over the past week. He has had blood tests that suggested he has no IgE allergies, and his dietician has advised we will likely figure out triggers as we introduce solids. His dad has a nut allergy so I’m convinced it is likely an allergy or intolerance.
We are at a loss on how to improve things - I’ve tried removing dairy, soy, gluten, oats, corn, nuts and egg from my diet at different points and can’t find any concrete links. He is in good form generally but gas pains do wake him at night sometimes. Our GP suggested amino acid formula which I’ve heard isn’t appealing, and tbh I’m gutted as he gets so much comfort from breastfeeding. Feeling conflicted about what to do at this point!
