I know I haven’t posted in forever. I took time out to focus on writing a novel. So, my poor blog has been ignored. Thanks to all of those who commented on the previous post.
As for the update, Marsh is now 20 months and we are smack in the middle of a milk trial/challenge. We’ve tried this before, and after having milk, he immediately started having belly problems and stopped sleeping through the night. This time, however, is looking more positive. We’ve slowly been substituting part of his Nutramigen with whole milk. We are now up to 75% milk, 25% formula. He also is having some yogurt. He thinks cheese is gross, so he hasn’t had much of that. He seems to be reacting well. We need to get a diaper tested for blood at the doc’s soon to see if his body is actually handling it okay. We’re keeping our fingers crossed.
In the meantime, my sister-in-law had a baby, and she just recently found out that the baby has a milk allergy too. Her daughter’s is more severe than Marsh because even Nutramigen tears her stomach up. I never knew this was so common. The doctor said it can run in families, so I’m officially blaming my husband 
and alleviating myself of the guilt I was feeling for eating truckloads of dairy during my pregnancy.
They say most kids outgrow this type of milk allergy (the non-IgE mediated kind) by three. Does anyone have a child that grew out of this? If so, what age?
