The process of elimination is in progress now. When Jackson was about 8 weeks old he broke our in a horrible rash all over his body. Our doctor recommended I drop ALL dairy products for 2 weeks since I was breastfeeding. That was totally the problem and why he had the rash. So for the first few months I didn't have any dairy. Then I would gradually increase it. I knew to back off when he would spit up more. By the time he was a year old he was doing really well. He has been eating grilled cheeses, yogurt, ice cream and lots of things that are in the dairy category. Lately, he has been drinking a lot of milk. I have still been using some soy-formula, but was moving towards solely using milk. Tuesday was the first night that he actually had a bottle of milk. Yes, I am still giving him a bottle before he goes to bed. He eats well enough that he doesn't really need it, but I guess I am hanging on as long as possible to one of the few things left of making him a "baby". The next morning is when he had the big surprise for me.I had given him milk after cleaning him up and a few hours later he puked again. The rest of the day he did great. I gave him water and crackers. Last night before bed he had a bottle of formula. He slept great and woke up with no surprises. I gave him a sippy cup of milk this morning and he's puked twice now. Nothing at all like yesterday. The puke is like what you see when a baby spits up. My brain triggered that maybe the milk is too much for him. Giving it to him Tuesday night for bed triggered something and now has bothered him some how. I am going to take the milk away for a few days. Then try it once again. We will see. Anyways, if you have any suggestions or have dealt with this yourself please share. Thanks!
