Wow, what a big day Saturday was for us....nerve wracking to say the least but at least it is now over, Tayden is fine and we have the great news that he no longer has a life threatening dairy allergy! Praise God for this one, we thought this day would never come!
Tayden is still reacting to dairy when he comes into contact with it - for eg. a drop of milk on his skin, butter on his mouth - and will come out in a big rash around that area but as I say, there is no longer the life threatening allegy present!
We have been given the all clear from our paediatrician to continue with milk and use it in his everyday life and we are ecstatic!
Tayden does however produce alot of excess mucous on milk, so we will be keeping him off full blown milk products such as plain milk, yoghurt, custard, ice cream etc but can now look for a milk that is a bit cheaper than the Similac Alimentum that we have been on, and will be able to provide him with the necesary nutrients that he needs to grow and develop properly!
We just can't stop smiling this side!
