Dairy free days...

Sorry for the radio silence again... It's been pretty tough going for Little T of late, but the experts think they might have got to the bottom of it... a dairy and soya allergy! It probably hasn't helped that all the little guy has been living off is his formula milk (which has dairy in it!) and yoghurt...

So now we are back to square one. Onto a new prescribed formula and quickly getting up to speed on the oh so many things Little T should avoid. I'm thinking of having some dairy free days myself so that I can really get a grip on things... Although I can't say I won't have a square of chocolate or two once Little T is in bed...  

Does anyone have any tips for us? I found this BBC article really informative http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/spotlight-dairy-free and we are off to see a dietician next week. 

We are really hoping this is the answer and I'm pleased to say that a lot of babies apparently grow out of allergies by age 5, but in the meantime... I'm all over the dairy free section of Waitrose!
