Moms of toddlers who were on Neocate
Andy is coming up on 10 months, and I'm starting to think about what will happen when he turns 1. With my daughter she was transitioning to whole milk starting around at 11 months.
Was your child tested for milk allergies before going off Neocate? Or did you try milk and then see what happened? If your child still has a milk allergy, so you give them any sort of milk substitute?
I'm a planner, so I'm just trying to get an idea of what might be in store for us.
Thanks!
Cathy

Hi Cathy,
I am having all the same thoughts and concerns! I'm so worried about giving her soy milk because when I give her soy products, she frequently breaks out in a horrible diaper rash. I have Ava's 10 month appt. tomorrow, I will let you know what the ped. says. I would like to have her tested for allergies soon. I need some concrete answers before I can start transitioning to anything. I know that Neocate makes a one plus formula, too, so we'll see. I just don't know what we'll do.
I'm curious though for other moms of Neocate babies, what they're drinking now in their toddler years.

Re: Moms of toddlers who were on Neocate
My DS will be 1 on Saturday and has been drinking soymilk since 10 1/2 months. We tried giving him butter in a recipe and he threw up all over. My dr had me trasition him to soymilk at 10 1/2 months b/c he wasn't drinking the formula anymore, it was a chore! He has been fine and likes it alot too! He can tolerate eggs and soy but just not the milk proteins. HTH

Re: Moms of toddlers who were on Neocate
I guess I'll ask at his next appt if we can have him tested for food allergies. He was in so much discomfort, plus the bloody stool. Now for the past month and a half he's been refusing all baby food and he gags and throws up from table food, even those gerber puffs. I feel like I can't do anything right with him.
