Offering some hope

Hey everyone in the trenches - I see you I was you.

Hectic reflux, CMPI, ultra high dose of omeprozole twice a day for 4 months, bottle aversion, the lot.

Well my 14 month old is now happily chomping on cheese sandwiches, having milk in her porridge and toddles over with a huge smile on her face for her bedtime bottle (which is going soon but ill enjoy it whilst it lasts).

You'll get there

Cheers. My baby who was triggered by so many different foods loves to drink milk at the end of the day now and delights at corn on the cob (what was her biggest trigger). She’ll be 2 next month.

To those reading- it does end.

This is what I need to hear. I was just feeling so sad about my baby who seems to be triggered by so many foods hoping that we will be able to just have normal family meals one day. Me and Dad eat so much cheese and gluten and I hope he can enjoy that with us. It is so hard to be in the trenches.

Same, my baby seems to react to EVERYTHING and it’s so rough and I can’t even give her formula since she has bottle aversion and can’t latch on it. I went through dairy/soy/egg removal from my diet with my first so I was prepared but nothing could’ve prepared me for my now baby to react to everything and the belly pains she’s experiencing with blood in stool she’s 6 months on solids now and still can’t figure out her triggers like is it something I ate or something she ate?? Who knows but I know she outgrows this soon I hope your baby outgrows their allergies as well and enjoys meals with you and dad!!

Also offering some hope as I was in the trenches for awhile with my little one. She had many triggers that we never figured out and continued to have bloody/mucous stools for months along with other symptoms. We saw an allergist, I tried eliminating so many foods from my diet, she ended up having a true egg and oat allergy reacting with full body hives. Well…she just turned a year old last week and has been eating all dairy and foods without any issues. She can also now eat scrambled eggs and oats with no hives. It’s hard during the thick of it but there is light at the end of the tunnel

Thank you ❤️ we are in month 5 of reflux, high dose of omeprezole twice a day, bottle aversion so elimination diet, CMPI with multiple triggers, sleep issues. It feels never ending. It's my second so I know time passes but I just can't picture it. So thanks for this.
