Welcome to the group! I'm Trish, mom to three kiddos! Sam is my allergy kid-

you can see his allergies in my signature.

As for helping out.....I'm kinda where Brittany is- what exactly do they

mean a protein allergy? Is this your every day run, of the mill food

allergy? Or is it something more like what Brittany talked about it? Give us

some more info if you have it.

We all love to help out in any way we can!

Kayla (5)- No allergies

(2)- anaphlyatic to egg, severely allergic milk, peanuts, all tree

nuts, soy, other foods

Hi nna,

Welcome to the group! I don't have any help to offer, but I'm sure you'll receive lots of suggestions, and help from other members. Everyone is just great!

New - Toddler with protein allergies

Hi - I am new to this group and was wondering if anyone had any advice for me. My twenty month old was diagnosed at a few weeks old with protein allergies. I nursed her to 15 months, barring from my diet all dairy, soy, nuts, fish,eggs, etc. At 15 months I put her on rice milk and the same diet. Five months later, I just found out she is severly anemic and her allergies are probably broader than what we have already eliminated. The doctor wants her to drink Peptamin Jr which she absolutely refuses - has anyone had any similar experiences? Any advice on alternative formulas or supplements? We are both miserable and last night went through extreme vomiting which could be the iron or the formula....of course, the doctor wants me to continue with formula to see if that's the cause!! Easier said than done! Anyone have any input? Thanks, nna
