Can a milk allergy develop in one years old, who drink cow's milk for the 1st time? |
I breast fed my baby for the 1st year w/no problems w/dairy allergies; now she is having major skin reactions that are similar to what is described w/dairy allergies now that I have introduced cow's milk. I drank a ton a milk while breasfeeding & she was always fine. Is there a difference in the effect of the allergic reaction between traces of cow's milk in breastmilk vs. straight whole cow's milk??? Yes ask your doctor. we are not experts I think it is possible to develop the allergy at a year. try using soya milk. I would say that she is allergic to cows milk. Ask your GP to test for it. Try soya milk or goats milk. Humans dont digest cows milk as efficiently as breastmilk. The fact that you digested the cows milk before it went through your system is why she never showed a reaction. try soy and ask your doctor if it is best to take her off the milk completely. she might be lactose intolerant. Soy is better for girls than for boys anyways. Yes to both of your questions. cow's milk doesn't cross into breast milk, so your little one never had any. It is quite common for nursing babies to have allergies to cow's milk. I put both my sons on soy milk, they did just fine. you need to take her to the doctor, so he can do some allergy tests. Sometimes babies can develop eczema and it could just be a coincidence that it came about the same time she went on to cows milk. You could try avoiding cow's milk for two or three weeks and see if her skin clears up. Have you done anything else differently, like changing laundry detergents? try soya babys milk Yes my daughter was allergiec to cows milk,as well as soy milk.. She a level 5 on the charts....She drinks rice milk and has since infancy..We realized because she was always crying, projectile vomiting and not gaining weight, so we had her tested. By this time her intestines were so inflamed they had to put her meds to calm them..She is now 4 and tiny for her size and is still allergic to milk, soy milk, eggs, peanuts, and shelllfish.. She also still has eczema break outs when she eats certain foods like ketchup. So it is very possible.. yes i reckon so ...my daughter had the same reaction -we tried goats milk which worked Yes , your baby could have an allrgy to cow's milk as i had a friend who was the only one in her family who had an allergy to all dairy products , she had to have soya milk etc but she did find an ice cream in sainsburys , it was a swedish glace but was dairy free and tasted fab , just thought if you found your baby did have an allergy it might be a nice treat . good luck . Yes. I know of many women, myself included, that have breastfed a child that has ended up with a dairy allergy. When looking back at it my son had symptoms that I didn't associate with an allergy until I moved him to soy formula and they cleared up. Has your baby had a constant stuffy, or runny nose? Do they spit up a lot, what about being really fussy? Skin rash? These are just some of the many symptoms of a food allergy. My aunt was allergic when she was a child, so she drank either goat's milk or soy milk. MY FRIENDS WE GIRL GOT IT WEN SHE WAS A BB IT WAS HER 4TH CHILD ALL THE REST WER FINE BUT SHE HAD TO FEED THE BB ON A MILK & LACTOSE FREE BB MILK WHICH THE DOC HAD TO PRESCRIBE Tell your doctor that you would like your child to be tested for allergies. a simple blood work can tell them most. Good thing is your baby is old enoug to grow out of allergies. Then she in not being exposed to cows milk for the first time, some of the proteins will have been present in your breast milk. That said, they may have been present enough to trigger her immune system to react to the proteins, but at insufficient levels to cause a full blow skin flare up. Now she is having it straight it is in much higher quantities and this may explain why she is reacting. A child has a different immunity to allergies and diseases while breast feeding. i breast fed my son for 1 month but stopped because he would vomit right after he drank. he would vomit on all formulas except NUTRAMIGEN. tried cows milk when 1 and he also vomited. on soy milk now and he is fine. he is also allergic to oatmeal. Yes - she can definitely develop an allergy. Though she just has a rash now, it could develop into something much more dangerous pretty quickly. Call your doc ASAP and get some advice on what to feed her until you can get into a pediatric allergist. And get to the allergist ASAP. Infantile cow's milk allergy is not uncommon. Maternal cow's milk intake normally does not affect the baby when breastfeeding unless the baby is extremely sensitive to the partially digested milk proteins. Mild milk allergy or intolerance involves non life-threatening symptoms such as reflux, skin rashes, constipation/diarrhoea, wind and abdominal pain and the baby can be unsettled after feeding. Yes it is possible. It is medically known as a LACTOSE INTOLERANCE. Cows milk is converted in your body and much less potent as breast milk !! Your best bet is to put your baby on Soya milk. But please check with your GP/ District Nurse first. Good Luck !! |
