I didn’t want to hijack Evergreenies post but I saw where you mentioned Ben was lactose intolerant and I was wondering how you knew. Seth does ok with cheese, hidden dairy and Pediasure (lactose free) but still has problems with milk, ice cream and yogurt. I always wonder if Seth still may have a touch of MSPI or if he is lactose intolerant and did not know how to tell. Thanks.

When we re-introduced dairy to Ben he didn’t show any of his typical intolerance symptoms, which for him had been extreme fussiness, eczema, and constipation. However, as we slowly increased the amount of whole milk he was getting, and reducing the formula, he got gassier and gassier. I was pretty sure it wasn’t an MSPI reaction as he didn’t have his old symptoms of that, so I thought perhaps it was the lactose. I decided to treat his milk jug with Lactaid drops just to see if it made any difference. Well the difference was huge! The gas stopped right away. So from that little experiment, I figured that it must mean that he was lactose intolerant. The yogurt doesn’t he eats everyday doesn’t seem to bother him, but he only eats the small 60g packs, not a big one.

Hope that helps!
